Each Home Instead Senior Care® franchise office is independently owned and operated.
Andover/Stillwater (763) 792-0041 Meet New Franchise Owner Jason Crane In 2012, Jason’s mother, Carole, was diagnosed with a rare form of Dementia called Primary Progressive Aphasia. As the disease has progressed, Jason’s father has become her primary caregiver. Both parents are committed to staying in their home and are preparing for a time when Home Instead services will be needed.
It is this experience and Jason’s passion for seniors, that led him to join Home Instead in 2013 as President of five franchises in Wisconsin. As President, Jason learned the ins-and-outs of the industry, preparing him for the next step. On October 1st, 2018, Jason and Dawn purchased two existing franchise locations in Minnesota; Home Instead Andover and Waite Park.
The goal of providing seniors – like Jason’s mother, Carole – the option of remaining “home instead” has been rewarding for both Jason and Dawn. As parents of five adult children, Jason and Dawn know the value of family, and welcome the opportunity to help other families remain connected by providing in-home care and support!
