Dan and Kathy Root | Owners
We are Dan and Kathy Root, and we are pleased to meet you! In 2018, we relocated to Middle Tennessee to live closer to family, to raise our children, and to establish our home.
We are both professionals coming from different backgrounds. Dan has helped organizations shape their focus on employee experience as a true driver for customer experience - a transferable skill to HomeCare. With an upbringing in a small Michigan town and having lived in a handful of different states, Dan understands that home carries different meanings for different people, and that providing care for a loved one can be a challenge, especially from miles away. Kathy started her career journey as a registered nurse, and she continued her career in the accounting profession. Kathy grew up in the Philippines in a small town province where she was raised by her grandmother. She later moved to the United States to be closer to her parents. Kathy lives with a core value of family first and has experienced and recognizes the great challenges with juggling multiple priorities.
Our journey, and the core principles that our upbringing taught us and that we have instilled in our careers - to listen, help and make an impact on others’ lives - has brought us to SYNERGY HomeCare. We believe our best life is lived serving the community that we call home.

Kathy Root, Owner

Our promise to you: care that moves you
Life is in constant motion. From the time we smile our first smile, ride our first bike, find our first home or embrace our first grandchild, it just keeps moving. And a moving life is a full one. But sometimes, life can take a turn that slows us down, or even stops us in our tracks. That’s where SYNERGY HomeCare comes in. To keep the basic needs of your life effortlessly moving forward. So you can focus on what moves you and get the most out of every day.
We guide with purpose
We take a strong lead with a kind hand in what can be a stressful, uncertain time in your life. By charting an assured course and making certain that you and your family members understand what’s happening, we can keep you comfortable every step of the way.
Great care comes from confidence, and confidence is contagious. We know what we’re doing and we’re always striving to do it better. One of the things we do best is relate to people on a personal level. And when you do something well, it breeds confidence. In you, and everyone around you. That’s why our clients, employees and franchise owners are so confident, too.
How we do it:
- We serve beyond the job description.
- We approach the job with a sense of adventure and purpose.
- We take ownership and responsibility over results.
- We quickly spot new opportunities for improvement and act on them.
We know individual people have individual needs
What we do:
We listen and ask questions. That’s the best way to learn how to impact an individual’s life. That’s how we do it. And that’s why we are recognized as an organization that shows an unwavering commitment to understanding people’s needs and providing the care option that best adapts to those needs. This is how we keep you and your life moving forward by being intuitively personal.
How we do it:
- We approach every encounter with compassion, personality and positive energy.
- We inspire others through words.
- We are curious. We ask questions and listen to what’s unspoken.
- We help you set goals. We make you feel as though we are walking with you on your care journey.
Life moves in one direction – forward. No matter your circumstances, SYNERGY HomeCare steps in with effective, comforting, life-affirming care that moves people emotionally and physically forward, from personal assistance and companionship to live-in and even family caregiver respite. We provide full support for fuller lives. Ultimately, we create a feeling of forward momentum, not just in lives but also in the home care industry.
Whether you’re a high-octane octogenarian who just needs a hand, someone confined to bed who needs a little more help, or a person dealing with lifelong disabilities who needs someone to walk beside them on their journey, we’re here to care with whole hearts and open arms.
We know you have questions. And we have answers. When the time is right for you, we would be honored to speak with you. We listen!
