Meet the Team at Caring Senior Service of Nashville

Our Owner

Meet Andy Gillen, the owner of Caring Senior Service of Nashville. He started managing the San Antonio office in 2014, and now manages several caring locations, including Nashville. Before working with caring, he experienced the challenges of finding quality caregivers for his own parents, so he can appreciate how caring does help seniors receive the very best home care. As the owner, it’s Andy's goal to give seniors the control needed to live safely at home and to give their families peace of mind.

Our Team

Your Caring Team consists of quality caregivers, care managers, and an agency director. Caregivers are the backbone of Caring Senior Service. We only hire caregivers that display a true passion for serving others and who also have experience working with seniors. Our caregivers report to a Care manager whose job is to ensure that each client has the best caregiver based on skill, experience, and personality. Our care managers also make regular visits to a client's home to make sure that care plans remain up to date and that everyone is happy with care. Finally, the agency director ensures that each client receives GreatCare. They manage the team to make sure clients get the best service day or night. The agency director has the important responsibility of making sure that the statement We provide GreatCare is not just what we say, it’s what we do.

My parents live in an independent apartment in Raliegh, and I can't say enough about SCS. The whole team has been very supportive and caring. They are all aware of our entire family situation and help with both my parents. They are like an extended family. The care team is like having a bunch of aunties, and Colin is the bigger brother. Mags is the sister I have dreamed of having; I could not have done this without every single member of the team. They always answer you when you have a question and are unbelievably great at communicating with me when my parents' situation changes. Mags can ease my mind when I get anxious about what's going on with my parents; that is a rare trait to have. SCS goes above and beyond what other companies may do. We are lucky to have them in the building. To bad they were not there 24/7. :) hehe It's obvious all the staff loves their job because they all truly care.
