Free cost guide Talk to a nurseFrequently asked questions
- How much does in-home care cost in Memphis and Nashville?
- Home care is billed hourly, so the cost depends on how many hours and what level of care you need. Our free 2026 guide breaks down real local hourly rates in Memphis and Nashville and how they compare to assisted living and nursing homes.
- Is in-home care cheaper than assisted living or a nursing home?
- It depends on the hours. Part-time home care often costs less than assisted living or a nursing home, while around-the-clock care can cost more. The advantage is you only pay for the hours you actually need, and your loved one stays at home. Our guide compares all three side by side.
- How do families pay for home care? Does Medicare cover it?
- Medicare generally does not cover long-term, non-medical home care. Most families pay through a mix of private pay, long-term care insurance, VA benefits (such as Aid & Attendance for eligible veterans), and Medicaid for those who qualify. Our guide covers proven ways smart families pay for care.
- What's the difference between home care and home health?
- Home care is non-medical help — personal care, companionship, meal prep, and help with daily activities. Home health is skilled, medical care (such as nursing or therapy), usually physician-ordered. BrightStar Care provides both and is Joint Commission accredited.
- How many hours of care does my parent actually need?
- It varies with their needs and safety risks. The fastest way to find out is a free 20-minute call with one of our Registered Nurses, who can assess the level of care, what it should cost, and which Tennessee benefits you may qualify for.
