Tennessee In-Home Care Programs

People needing assistance with activities of daily living (such as bathing, walking, eating, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence) or instrumental activities of daily living (using the phone, shopping, food preparation, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, or finances) may need in-home services. Helping people find those resources will allow them to stay in their homes as long as they wish.
