Amada Senior Care in Knoxville: One of a Kind
As the owner of Amada Senior Care Knoxville, Jeff Pell understands just how much of a difference top-quality, compassionate care by a trained caregiver can make in helping to preserve loving relationships between family members.
Says Jeff, “After graduating from college at the University of Tennessee and serving nine years in the U.S. Navy, I moved back home. One of the most influential people in my life was my grandmother. Everyone in my family simply called her ‘Nanny.’ My mother kept Nanny in the home and cared for her for many years after she developed emphysema. At the time there were very few senior in-home care options in our community. I saw the hardship it sometimes put on my mother, who was working full time while still trying to care for my grandmother in the home.”
Jeff and his entire Amada Knoxville team are dedicated to providing personally meaningful senior home care to families and seniors living in Knoxville, Lenoir City, Maryville, Oak Ridge, Sevierville, and far beyond. As a Long-Term Care insurance expert, Jeff starts with a free care needs consultation and this LTCNews article explains why: What to Expect When Older Parents Need Long-Term Health Care.

I thank you for your quick and professional assistance at a time of need. AMADA's care giver staff is of the highest quality.
AMADA is the first group that I will turn to if the need arises again for sitter/care giver services for my mother. Furthermore, I will let people I talk to know what a good service AMADA here in in the Knox County area provided us.
We cannot thank Amada Knoxville owner Jeff Pell and his team enough for going above and beyond. He answered our call on a Friday evening and had friendly professional caregiver for our loved one the next day. Service continued as needed. The Amada Knoxville team provided such peace of mind.
We enjoyed working with the Amada staff. Jeff helped us coordinate getting benefits approved under my dad’s long term care policy and worked with us to get the right caregiver in place. My dad and his caregiver became good friends during his time of care. He has since moved into an assisted living facility but he still keeps in touch with his caregiver regularly. We were pleased with the caregiving, meal prep, and light housekeeping services provided. This allowed our family to enjoy more conversation/visitation with him during our time together and gave us peace of mind when we could not be there. She was also willing to accompany him to medical appointments which kept me from having to take time off from my job. Thank you Jeff, Diane, and Amada!
Senior Housing Advising Expertise
Sometimes seniors begin to require more support than we can provide with in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs. When that happens, it may be time to consider transitioning your loved one to an assisted living community.
We know this is an emotional decision for all involved. Without a doubt, our goal at Amada Senior Care in Knoxville is to guide seniors and their families through the placement process with wisdom, competence, and empathy.
For some seniors, a senior living community that offers non-complex medical services may be the right fit. Other seniors may require a bit more support, and a nursing home, memory care, or another type of care community might be best.
The senior care services team at Amada Senior Care Knoxville has years of experience with senior care in Knoxville, Oak Ridge, Sevierville, Lenoir City, Maryville, and far beyond. Our deep knowledge of all local care communities helps ensure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, budgets, and peace of mind.
We know the costs of assisted living intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. Our extensive experience will assist our clients in making full use of all benefits available to them, Long-Term Care insurance benefits and veterans’ benefits. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Knoxville team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, including:
- Assisted living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Senior care homes
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
- Skilled nursing facilities
Many of our veterans, their spouses, and families may not know of their potential eligibility for financial assistance. At Amada Senior Care in Knoxville, we are dedicated to helping individuals eligible for VA Aid and Attendance benefits take full advantage of these resources.
