Overview of The Waters of Gainesboro The Waters of Gainesboro offers nursing home, skilled nursing, assisted living, and respite care in Gainesboro, Tennessee.

Respite care offers a short term stay when a usual caregiver needs time to travel, recover, or manage other responsibilities. Having assisted living, nursing home, and skilled nursing services in one community can allow a resident’s care to increase over time without a move elsewhere. The community has 83 beds, creating a defined residential setting.
