As we begin our secondyear…
Contact us at 615-665-0694 Currently only one of two similar LiveWellByBlakeford.com programs operating in Tennessee From Our CEO 1 Burton Hills Blvd. Suite 140 Nashville, TN 37215 Blakeford created LiveWell By Blakeford because the vast majority of older adults wish to stay in their own homes; and after one year, the program is delivering on that promise very well. We have a strong team in place to grow the program, and to develop more services to address the social, spiritual, recreational, and health needs of our members. As I speak to people about LiveWell, one question that comes up frequently is how LiveWell compares to long-term care insurance. There really is no comparison. LiveWell gives you immediate coverage, more and earlier benefits, and a local, personal approach to your care. Contact us at 615-665-0694 There are no elimination periods and no maximum benefits. In addition, and most importantly, you are part of Blakeford. Even if you live at home, we extend the quality of our care and our spirit of belonging to you. LiveWell is a new concept to Nashville, although there are now more than 20 similar programs throughout the United States. The best way for you to learn about our program is to attend one of our introductory seminars. Come. Hear what we have to say. Ask questions. See if LiveWell By Blakeford is right for you. - Van Cluck, President & CEO Blakeford, Inc.
