Phil Bredesen on Social Security

Democratic TN Governor

 


Own Your Future: planning for long-term care needs

Governor Phil Bredesen was joined today by officials from the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Administration on Aging and the Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability to announce the statewide launch of "Own Your Future," an awareness campaign to encourage Tennesseans to start planning now for their future long-term care needs.

"None of us likes to think about getting older and the possibility that we might one day be unable to do simple things--but the reality is that many of us will need a little help with the daily activities of living as we age," said Bredesen. "This campaign is designed to educate Tennesseans about preparing now for the future. By planning ahead, you know that you are the one in charge."

The Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability is the designated state agency on aging and works to coordinate programs for the aging and persons with disabilities, and makes recommendations for improvements.
