Tennessee Nursing Homes
Tennessee offers several options when it comes to long-term senior care and nursing home facilities located throughout the state. The average cost of residence in a Tennessee nursing home ranges from $6000 to $8000 per month, though this cost can fluctuate based on the type of unit or the city/area of the facility.
Understanding Long-Term Care Facilities
Nursing homes can be a great fit for individuals who need more constant support than could be offered by a family member or in-home care. Nursing homes offer general medical care, like administration of medication, while skilled nursing facilities offer on-site treatment and physician supervision. The federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) also partner with the state to offer information on Special Focus Facilities (SFF) which have performed negatively against compliance standards set both federally and by the Tennessee Department of Health. The best way to decide if a long-term care facility is the right fit is by visiting in person. While most information can be gathered online (i.e. number of beds, cost of care, potential complaints against the home), in-person visitation allows potential applicants the chance to see how patients interact with aides and staff members and vice versa.
Medicare and Medicaid Services
Tennessee residents enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid should note that Medicare will not cover the costs of a long-term care facility. Medicaid may cover some of these costs, but both Medicare and Medicaid coverage are subject to change while an individual lives in a nursing home. Both services are accepted by the majority of Tennessee's long-term care facilities to cover any additional costs or outside appointments. Individuals and families considering a nursing home should direct questions to a staff member at a given location to see what services Medicare or Medicaid could cover.
