SENIORS IN ACTION THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

Area Agency on Aging and Disability The Area Agency on Aging and Disability (AAAD) plans programs and services for older adults and adults with disabilities in the Greater Nashville region. The AAAD provides advocacy, coordination, inter-agency linkages, information sharing, and program evaluations.

The AAAD contracted with sixty-three local agencies/organizations for the provision of senior center, nutrition, transportation, ombudsman, legal, and home and community based services.

A total of 9,568 contacts were made to connect callers with needed services and supports during FY 2014.

The Family Caregiver Support Program acknowledges the stress caregivers experience and realizes the significance of caring for the caregiver. This program provided respite, support and education to 246 caregivers who sacrifice for their loved one. Other than the traditional forms of respite, this program also allows for a more self-directed form of respite which allows the caregiver to hire anyone they desire to assist with their loved one.

The Veteran Directed Home & Community Based Services Program was implemented with the first enrollment in November 2013. Partnering with the Veteran Administration and other entities, this program allows the veteran or their authorized representative to design a plan that provides necessary assistance to veterans of any era that allows them to remain in their homes for as long as possible versus institutionalism.

State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) provided free and objective one-on-one counseling, information, and assistance with Medicare and other health related insurance with 5,075 contacts to provide assistance. This represents almost a 40% increase from last fiscal year.

Effective August 15th, TennCare only accepted CHOICES applications from HCBS Qualified

Assessors and 14 newly certified staff conducted 764 home visits to facilitate enrollment and completion of CHOICES applications. CHOICES is TennCare’s Program for long term services (nursing home care and home care).

The Service Coordination team provides case management which includes assessment and care plan development, monitoring of service delivery, advocating for the consumer, and assisting the consumer in accessing other needed services. The Service Coordination Team provided case management to 412 State Options and OAA In-Home Services consumers, 991 Nutrition consumers and 20 Self Direction Consumers which totals 1,423 consumers. In addition, the Service Coordination Team updated information on 914 consumers on the Wait List.

Research demonstrates an active brain is more likely to be a healthy brain. Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability sponsored their first statewide Senior Brain Games and Senior Citizens of Hendersonville was our district winner.

Research and GIS

Worked with local government and public agencies, and GNRC programs to provide demographic, economic, and other information and mapping for items such as grant applications and studies.

Prepared a report for Wilson County detailing the feasibility of an event center.

Provided data for major CEDS revisions.

Assisted 16 cities and counties with zoning and land use maps as part of their planning contracts.

Assisted the City of Dickson with preparing a new Wards Map.

Tennessee River Trails Association GNRC staff provided project management for the Tennessee River Trails Association including working with consultants on Gateway Feasibility Study and Portable Display Byway Grants for nine (9) counties along the Western leg of the Tennessee River. Houston, Humphreys and Stewart Counties in the GNRC region with Henry and Benton Counties in the Northwest Tennessee Development District; Decatur and Hardin Counties in the Southwest Tennessee Development District; and Wayne and Perry Counties in the South Central Tennessee Development District along with other state and federal agencies partnered in this project. Mid-Cumberland Area Development Corporation GNRC continues to provide administrative services to Mid-Cumberland Area Development Corporation, which provides small businesses access to financing using federal and local develop-ment loan programs. The main objective of these programs is to encourage small business growth and economic development, while benefiting communities through tax base expansion and job crea-tion as follows:

Capital Loan Program: 1 loan with 1 job for loan amount totaling $20,903

Intermediary Relending Program: 2 loans totaling $216,496 and private investment of $258,445

Revolving Loan Fund Program: 3 loans with 57 jobs for loan amounts totaling $541,556 and private investment of $1,298,898

Small Business Administration (SBA) 504 Loan Program: 7 loans with 77 jobs for loan amounts totaling $4,318,000 and private investment of $6,910,622

In 2014, the MADC was named the top volume Certified Development Company (CDC) for the State of Tennessee by the Small Business Administration for the current fiscal year. Planning and Transportation

Continued work with the Tennessee Central Economic Alliance (formerly the Four Lake Industrial Regional Authority) including the successful submission of a FastTrack grant to ECD for a new industry.

Met with the regional partners concerning the ongoing Joint Land Use Study for Fort Campbell and surrounding communities.
