Assisted Living Communities in Chattanooga, TN

"Rooms on the smaller side but still ok. The activity group is outstanding. Food is ok to good. Aides care and wirk hard"

"The food has continually gotten so much better. It’s flavorful and the portions are good. From the receptionist to nursing staff and aides, my family has been very pleased. As with any path that you have as a resident there are bumps in the road but everyone tries to make things better in every way they can. They are growing here and sure hope they keep growing and always striving for excellence. Everyone’s situations and needs are different but for my family we have been treated with respect and cared for as best as possible. God bless SMSL for being there for us."

"I toured Thrive at Brow Wood. The staff was helpful. She took us on a tour and told us the different things that they do. They have a Wii and my brother used to bowl. They had a Wii with a bowling app so that he could sit in his wheelchair and act like he was bowling. The facilities were great. The layout was good. They had a lady there who helped them paint and showed them how to paint pictures. The activities director was nice. While we were there, we got to watch him. They were dancing. They were doing karaoke. That was delightful."

"My grandmother stayed at Pleasant Valley. She loved everything about the home, especially the outdoor area and the caring staff. It felt like home to her. I would highly recommend this home. "

"We like them better than the others, we were considering it but it was just a little bit farther to drive. We like the staff and we found the community to be warm and inviting. We felt like they answered all our questions like we wanted them answered. My dad was with us, and a director walked out and kept him occupied. We wish they had a bigger and larger outside area, but it was fine."

"I stayed at Nhc Healthcare, Chattanooga for rehab. They came to the room to do therapy. It's a shared room. They have bingo. They have a courtyard."

"My mom is staying at the Senior Saints Home. I loved everything about it. The only reason we started looking was that they had been up on the price, and that's just a burden on the family because it's more than her check. It's a beautiful home. It's just like everybody's family. They have shared rooms. It looks like a bedroom. It's got two beds, and it's very nicely done. And then they have a single room. They also have a room with two double beds for a couple or something. I would recommend them. It's very nice. It's the greatest home setting you'll ever find. The staff are very caring and loving. I actually have no complaints whatsoever. The food looks like a good nutritional meal. My mom builds puzzles on the coffee table. She's got her traveling books and stuff. They can do what they want to do, but as far as coming together as a group and playing bingo or exercising, they don't really offer that."

"Hickory Valley was well built. They have an apartment that they're going to renovate for me to move into. They offer good meals. They have a lot of other attractions such as some exercise equipment and a game room. The rooms are a good size, and the room I'm going to get is convenient for me. It was not expensive. The staff members were great, informative, helpful, and courteous."

"My parents moved to Rockbridge Oaks. They serve a certain menu every day, but if you don't like it, you can choose from other things, and everything I've tasted there has been excellent. The rooms are nice. They were freshly painted and have a nice kitchenette area with a medium-sized refrigerator. The air conditioning units are high, like above the windows, so they're not blocking the walls. It's got a nice big bathroom with a shower. Everything is nice about the room. The staff had been great. Everyone's been very pleasant. They have in-house activities like bingo, trivia, name that song, art things, and trips to a restaurant, a grocery store, or different places. My parents have not participated in any of that yet because they are just getting adjusted. The value for the money is pretty average from the various facilities I visited. It's maybe a little cheaper than some."

"I liked East Ridge Retirement Center because of their amenities. To me, the place is very nice. The people are nice and the lady who showed me around was very nice. "

"I am the daughter of a resident of Martin Boyd Christian Home. I cannot say enough good things about the staff and caregivers. My mother is very happy here and thoroughly enjoys the activities and food. When the time came a year ago that she could no longer live alone, Martin Boyd was where she wanted to live! "

"My Mom was at Life Care of East Ridge for the last three months of 2024. While she was there I spent a lot of time with her and got to know many of the staff. They were all conscientious, professional, kind, knowledgeable, and truly cared about my mother's well-being and comfort. When I couldn't be there with her, I knew she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend the Center to someone needing Rehabilitation or Long-Term Care services."

"I chose Memory Lane at Forest Plaza as it is a small residential home, and my father does better in smaller settings. The staff is very compassionate and caring, and they worked very well with whatever the resident wants to do so if anybody wants to go for a walk, they go for a walk with them. The rooms are well-maintained and are adequate size for twin beds. The food is excellent, and my father loves it; he has put on 8lbs since he has been there. The dining area is setup as a regular dining room table, and they all sit around the same table. They do and they have done outings, they have family picnics, pumpkin carving with the families, and they go to the park to walk; he keeps pretty active. What really stood out to me was it has a home feeling instead of an institutional feeling. "

"My friend R was placed at this facility after falling and having an inoperable brain bleed. His wishes were clear in advance; no feeding tubes or ventilators ever. Since he was breathing on his own, food and water were withheld until he passed away. He was in horrible chronic pain before the fall, so the large amounts of pain medications they gave him was appropriate. The staff kept him very clean and kept him turned frequently. The staff were hard to get ahold of, but when they did get to answer our questions they were very compassionate and professional. Visiting hours were limited, which I was suprised about, to me these people need more visitors than any others, more for the sake of the visitors and closure than for the patient, who probably will be unaware the loved one is even there. Parking is difficult there, very limited handicapped parking and the parking lot was quite far from the Hospice unit, which is only part of the much larger Standifer Place Nursing Home. "
