Amada Senior Care in Knoxville: One of a Kind
As the owner of Amada Senior Care Knoxville, Jeff Pell understands just how much of a difference top-quality, compassionate care by a trained caregiver can make in helping to preserve loving relationships between family members.
Says Jeff, “After graduating from college at the University of Tennessee and serving nine years in the U.S. Navy, I moved back home. One of the most influential people in my life was my grandmother. Everyone in my family simply called her ‘Nanny.’ My mother kept Nanny in the home and cared for her for many years after she developed emphysema. At the time there were very few senior in-home care options in our community. I saw the hardship it sometimes put on my mother, who was working full time while still trying to care for my grandmother in the home.”
Jeff and his entire Amada Knoxville team are dedicated to providing personally meaningful senior home care to families and seniors living in Knoxville, Lenoir City, Maryville, Oak Ridge, Sevierville, and far beyond. As a Long-Term Care insurance expert, Jeff starts with a free care needs consultation and this LTCNews article explains why: What to Expect When Older Parents Need Long-Term Health Care.

Amada Knoxville has been so incredible! The entire senior care team is understanding, compassionate and caring. The owner, Mr. Pell, was so kind and patient when my grandmother started to need in-home assistance. He helped our family navigate all of the decisions and payment options, in addition to setting up a care schedule. Every Amada person we have worked with has been helpful and friendly.
My grandmother's caregiver, Liz, is simply wonderful, and my grandmother loves her. Liz not only is kind and patient but really helps my grandmother feel like she is cared for and has a friend instead of feeling she's just being looked after. Our family highly recommends Amada Senior Care to other families looking for wonderful, knowledgeable and safe senior care. Thank you for all you do!
We have been very impressed with Amada Senior Care. Jeff Pell really takes the time to help prospective clients get their needs met and goes above and beyond every time. We have had a lot of great caregivers and especially love Cherelle P, wow!
I thank you for your quick and professional assistance at a time of need. AMADA's care giver staff is of the highest quality.
AMADA is the first group that I will turn to if the need arises again for sitter/care giver services for my mother. Furthermore, I will let people I talk to know what a good service AMADA here in in the Knox County area provided us.
