John Lee and Cindy Souther, longtime caregivers who have personally navigated the challenges of caring for aging parents, have turned their experience into a local business. Their new FirstLight Home Care agencies in Flower Mound and Denton aim to provide families with reliable, compassionate in‑home care.
Local roots, national reach
FirstLight Home Care has operated for more than 17 years and now serves clients in 40 states. The recent expansion brings that nationwide expertise to the communities surrounding Grapevine Lake—including Flower Mound, Lewisville, The Colony, Carrollton, Coppell, Colleyville, Grapevine, Southlake, Westlake, Trophy Club, and Roanoke—as well as Argyle, Lantana, Bartonville, Double Oak, Copper Canyon, Highland Village, Corinth, and areas north of Lewisville Lake.
Mission‑driven care
Lee and Souther say their mission is to give families peace of mind by ensuring loved ones receive the support they need to enjoy a quality of life. Services range from bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting to meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, transportation, and more. Specialty offerings include disability care, rehabilitation and recovery support, and dementia and Alzheimer’s care.
Hiring locally, caring personally
Both owners stress that caregivers are hired only if they have prior caregiving experience and reside in the neighborhoods they serve. Caregivers are direct employees of the agencies, covered by agency insurance, and undergo extensive background checks, training, and drug testing.
Community impact
By matching caregivers to clients with a personalized approach, FirstLight hopes to fill a gap many families have felt when loved ones were neglected by other providers. The agency’s presence adds a valuable resource for seniors and adults with disabilities throughout Denton and northern Tarrant counties.
