Nashville Senior Advisor is a free, local senior-care placement service for families across Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Wilson, Sumner, Maury, Robertson, and Dickson counties. We help you find and move into the right setting — assisted living, memory care, Residential Homes for the Aged, nursing care, or in-home care — and we don't charge you a cent.
Who we are
We're a local team, not a national call center. Our advisors hold recognized senior-care credentials — a Certified Senior Advisor (CSA), a Licensed Social Worker (LSW), and a Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) — and we've personally walked the communities and homes we recommend across the Nashville metro.
How we work
We learn your parent's needs, budget, and preferred area; shortlist two or three licensed options that genuinely fit; help you tour and compare itemized pricing; and support the move. We verify every option against the Tennessee Department of Health (TDH) Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities and won't refer families to providers with open enforcement actions or hidden pricing.
How we're paid
Communities pay us a referral fee only if you choose to move in. Families always pay $0 — for the consultation, the tours, and the move support. We'll also tell you about good options that don't pay us. More on how we get paid →
Why families trust us
We currently track licensed providers across the greater Nashville region — including TDH-licensed ACLFs and Residential Homes for the Aged — keep our impressions current with repeat visits, and put your parent's fit ahead of any single placement. If you're just starting out, tell us what's going on — there's no obligation.
What to do next in the Nashville metro
Senior-care decisions rarely improve by waiting, but they don't have to be made in a panic either. The most useful first step is a short, no-pressure conversation that turns a vague worry into a concrete plan: what level of care fits, what it will realistically cost in the Nashville metro, and which licensed communities or services are genuine candidates right now. From there, touring two or three real fits beats wading through dozens of listings.
- Free assessment. A 15-minute call to pin down care needs, budget, and timeline.
- A real shortlist. Two or three TDH-licensed options that actually fit — not a dozen sales calls.
- Hands-on help. We help you tour, compare itemized pricing, and coordinate the move.
- Always free to families. We're paid by the community only if you choose to move in.
Whether you need help this week or are planning months ahead, a free the Nashville metro advisor can save you days of research and a costly mismatch. Tell us what's going on — there's no obligation.
Why families choose a local Nashville metro advisor
National senior-living websites are essentially lead brokers: enter your information and a dozen communities call you within minutes, whether they fit or not. A local advisor works differently. We focus only on the Nashville metro — Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Wilson, Sumner, Maury, Robertson, and Dickson counties — so we know the buildings, the directors, and which providers are genuinely strong for memory care versus assisted living versus Residential Homes for the Aged. We shortlist two or three real fits instead of selling your contact details to the highest bidder.
Both models are free to families, because communities pay a referral fee only when someone moves in. The difference is depth and trust: we verify every option against the TDH license database and CMS Nursing Home Compare, we tell you about good providers that don't pay us, and we stay reachable after the move. That local, lighter-touch approach is why families across the Nashville metro start with us rather than a national 800 number.
