For families and individuals in Indianapolis, IN, seeking reliable home care for those with disabilities, Nana Cares offers respectful, non-medical in-home care. We support adults aged 18 and older, helping them maintain their independence while receiving the assistance they need in daily life. Our approach is centered on dignity, routine, and helping individuals navigate everyday life at home.
Whether you are the person receiving care, a family member, a guardian, or a case manager, our goal is to make daily support feel clear, practical, and person-centered. Nana Cares serves adults with physical disabilities, developmental disabilities, intellectual disabilities, chronic health conditions, and traumatic brain injury, within authorized care plans and service guidelines.
In-home support for adults with disabilities means having help with everyday life at home while staying within non-medical scope. Nana Cares is a home care agency, also known as a Personal Service Agency, and does not provide nursing or clinical treatment. Instead, support is focused on daily living, comfort, routine, and practical help at home.
This can include personal care, homemaker support, companionship, respite, non-medical reminders, and limited transportation as part of a care plan. The goal is not to take over someone’s life. The goal is to support independence, dignity, and safer day-to-day living in a way that fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Adults with disabilities may need support in different parts of the day, depending on routines, goals, and the care plan.

Care at Nana Cares is guided by the person’s needs, daily routines, preferences, and support goals.

Nana Cares does not promise coverage, eligibility, or hours beyond what has been approved.
For adults who need hands-on help with activities of daily living, Personal/Attendant Care can support bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, mobility, meal preparation, feeding assistance, medication reminders, and limited transportation as part of the care plan.
Companion Services support daily routine, supervision, conversation, and light activity. This can be a strong fit for adults who want more structure, social connection, or support during the day without hands-on care at every moment.
