Abe’s Garden at Home
Nashville’s In-Home Care & Engagement Provider
Everyone has different needs as they age. That’s why Abe’s Garden at Home has a customized approach to in-home care and engagement for Nashville-area seniors who need a little support to remain independent at home.
A Unique Approach
Our at-home care partners receive special training that helps them uncover each person’s unique needs, abilities and interests. Once they understand needs, they create personalized opportunities designed to enhance the quality of life through support with self-care tasks and mind and body wellness activities … all while providing respite for family caregivers.
Personalized Services in the Comfort of Home
With a goal of helping families remain in the place they most want to be – at home – Abe’s Garden at Home assists older adults with engagement, activities of daily living, and so much more. Our at-home services help older adults remain independent at home and are often an alternative to an assisted living community. Our services include assistance with:
- Bathing and dressing
- Personal hygiene and dental care
- Light housekeeping and laundry
- Mobility/transfer support
- Shopping, medical appointments and errands
- Medication reminders
- Meal preparation
- Supervision
- And more!
Mind-Body Wellness Support
Abe’s Garden at Home also offers participants and families training, tools and services that focus on keeping both minds and bodies active. From reading to exercise to art and puzzles, our experienced home engagement coordinators help boost daily engagement by providing personalized activities based on a person’s interests and abilities.
Road Trips
There’s nothing like a trip to a Nashville museum, music venue or restaurant to boost the spirit and engage the mind. So, our engagement coordinators also provide support outside of the home. Whether it’s accompanying families on outings or taking a participant on a nature walk or to visit a favorite local establishment, we are available to help plan or arrange an outing. This not only engages the participants but also provides family caregivers with much-appreciated downtime to relax or accomplish non-caregiving tasks.
Safety Assessment and Recommendations
Our team: Qualified, Experienced, Compassionate
Our team training includes learning evidence-based best practices and Hearthstone Institute’s I’m Still Here® approach. Our team shadows the highly skilled Abe’s Garden Community care partners, and they participate in a week-long orientation, as well as monthly in-services and weekly team huddles. Prior to employment, all team members must pass a background check and drug test.
