Retired Army veteran opens Caring Senior Service in Fort Worth

Caring Senior Service has opened a new Fort Worth-area location led by retired Army veteran Marquita Foxworth.

Foxworth’s interest in senior care grew through her work with fellow veterans. Through a veterans group she helped establish three years ago, she regularly visited hospitals and rehabilitation centers, where she saw families suddenly taking on major caregiving responsibilities for aging loved ones.

“Serving in the Army taught me that people do better when they know someone is in their corner,” Foxworth said. “I’ve seen families step up for the people they love, but they’t have to figure everything out on their own. I want this business to be one more place they can turn for help.”

The new office, located at 550 East Bailey Boswell Road, Building 3, Suite 320A, in Saginaw, will provide personalized in-home care services to seniors throughout the Fort Worth area.

“Marquita brings a strong sense of leadership and purpose to this location,” said Jeff Salter, CEO and founder of Caring Senior Service. “She’s thoughtful about the kind of business she wants to build and the role she wants it to play in the Fort Worth community.”

For Foxworth, who was born and raised in Beaumont, Texas, opening Caring Senior Service is also a continuation of the service-oriented path she has followed throughout her career. She hopes to build a business that supports older adults, serves local families and remains connected to the veteran community.

“I want to leave behind something that reflects the way I’ve tried to live my life,” Foxworth said. “For me, that means showing up for people when they need support and giving families someone they can count on.”
