Chandler House Assisted Living in Jefferson City, TN
5.0

My loved one lives here and it's wonderful! So much better and more affordable than his last facility. The people here are wonderful. The nurses are so kind and helpful. They have a lot of activities and the residents are interactive. The staff encourages them to be. The memory care unit is a smaller unit and only 20 residents, which is great. I would recommend them to friends and family.

The Village At Allandale in Kingsport, TN
5.0

It's a very nice place for someone with dementia, which my aunt had. My uncle died within a week of arriving there and my aunt fell about 2 months later and fractured her hip, so she left there and passed away in a rehab facility post surgery. I really appreciated A Place for Mom's help in finding a place.

This type of facility is a helpful and easy living alternative for persons 65 years and above, however nursing homes will frequently allow individuals 55 and greater (a rarity in the realm of senior care).There are some services that may come at a cost to residents which can include flowers and plants, cosmetic and grooming items, and specially prepared food. The most common mental condition effecting nursing home residents is dementia, which can hinder their memory recall, decision making capacities, and and their sense of familiarity. Nursing homes are required to provide specialized rehabilitative services (treatment for mental illness or intellectual disability), pharmaceutical services, dietary services, and emergency dental services to residents. Types of amenities and servicesoffered at nursing homes might include adult day services , friendly visitor programs, rehabilitation needed due to injury, disability, or illness, and patient and caregiver education.
