Tom Jenkins is the CEO of LT Home Healthcare and a seasoned business leader with almost two decades of experience in the home healthcare industry. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Conroe, Texas, LT Home Healthcare has grown to serve more than 800 clients across the state — built on a foundation of compassion, accountability, and operational excellence.
A former national consultant and multi-unit operator, Tom is known for his direct, no-nonsense approach to leadership, his commitment to staff development, and his willingness to challenge conventional wisdom in an industry that rarely welcomes disruption.
His path wasn't conventional. He started as a delivery driver at Domino's Pizza, became one of the youngest area managers in the company, and later uprooted his family to find treatment for his two sons diagnosed with autism — the defining experience that shaped the business philosophy he now teaches.
The industry doesn't need more agencies. It needs better leaders. That's what this book is about.— Tom Jenkins, CEO, LT Home Healthcare
A practitioner's playbook, not a theoretical guide. Tom names what's broken in home healthcare — and shows exactly how he fixed it inside his own agency.— Industry Reviewer
Equal parts business strategy and leadership memoir. Required reading for any agency owner ready to stop accepting the status quo.— Healthcare Executive
Tom built a 600-client agency from scratch — no outside funding, no shortcuts. The compensation model alone is worth the price of the book.— Agency Owner, Texas
CONROE, TX — Tom Jenkins, CEO of LT Home Healthcare and a veteran of almost two decades in the home healthcare industry, is set to release his debut book, Shocking the System: Success in Home Healthcare, on May 26, 2026.
The book arrives at a critical moment for the home healthcare industry — one facing mounting regulatory pressure, chronic workforce shortages, and a widespread leadership crisis that Jenkins argues is at the root of most agency failures. Across seven chapters and a 7-step epilogue, Jenkins delivers hard-won lessons on building an ethical foundation, paying staff what they are worth, and replacing compliance-driven culture with genuine commitment.
