Adult Day Services Rules and Regulations
The Department of Human Services hosted the Adult Day Services Rules Review Committee on July 30th to review current ADS rules and committee recommendations for any needed changes. Minutes from that meeting can be reviewed in the link below.
The primary purpose of adult day services is the protection of adults who are participants in adult day services centers. Minimum requirements are designed to maintain adequate health, safety, and supervision of adults while in adult day services programs. Licensure rules for adult day services centers may be accessed at the Secretary of State's website. https://publications.tnsosfiles.com/rules/1240/1240-07/1240-07-10.20230123.pdf
Tennessee's adult day services centers are inspected throughout the year to ensure that providers continue to meet licensing requirements.
Adult day services centers are required to post their license. Agencies are also investigated in response to complaints.
