Seniors Helping Seniors® In-Home Care Services Expands in Woodbury, Minnesota

Arnold brings a strong blend of business experience and clinical expertise to her new role, drawing on decades of community involvement, volunteer work and a nursing background rooted in home care. With six children and more than 25 years living in the Woodbury area, Arnold has long been involved in local schools and community organizations, including volunteer roles focused on heart health and essential needs assistance.

Her decision to bring Seniors Helping Seniors® to the Twin Cities is deeply personal. Arnold witnessed the challenges her mother faced as the primary caregiver for her grandmother, who battled Alzheimer’s disease and spent three years in hospice care. The experience highlighted the need for compassionate, consistent caregivers and the importance of combating isolation among aging adults.

“Growing up with the support of a close-knit community inspired me to give back and make a meaningful impact,” Arnold said. “During my years as a registered nurse providing home care, I saw firsthand how many seniors desperately wanted to remain in their homes but felt increasingly lonely as they became more medically frail. I want to help alleviate the issues of isolation, depression and loneliness by offering an alternative for both receivers and their families — especially those juggling life in the ‘Sandwich Generation.’”

The demand for in-home care for mature populations continues to grow, with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reporting that nearly 70% of retirees will require some form of long-term care. Seniors Helping Seniors® services is expanding in Minnesota with its unique care services and approach to caregiver-receiver matching. This new location in Woodbury will mark the fourth in the state and will focus on serving Woodbury, Eagan, Stillwater, northern Washington County, Roseville and St. Paul communities.

“We’ve become a leader in this industry by prioritizing the best possible care for our seniors, and that means partnering with only the most passionate and hard-working franchisees,” said Seniors Helping Seniors® President Namrata Yocom-Jan. “That’s exactly what we’ve found with Rhonda as a new franchisee partner, who is well-equipped to provide unparalleled in-home services to those in need throughout Minnesota.”
