Assisted Living Communities in Crossville, TN

"I feel very good about the care my mother gets at Golden Years. It feels like a large, happy home, with loving, personal attention by the staff and medical care provided either on-site or by transportation to local services. They cook actual home-style, tasty, healthy meals and provide all levels of assistance, as needed, from bathing, dressing, blood-sugar-testing, etc. I cannot imagine I'd have found a better place for my mother - she had received sub-par care in far more expensive facilities prior to moving her to Golden Years from out of state. The all-inclusive monthly fee is extremely good value. The only drawback perhaps is that the local hospital may not provide the spectrum of care needed by some people - you need to look into this first. By the way, Golden Years took good care of my grandmother, too, who passed at the age of nearly 107, after 7 years of dedicated care there. They are extremely patient and understanding of residents with dementia, and the facility is well secured."

"Every time we came in, people were polite to us and helped us out. They were great, but the first thing that hit you when you came in the door was the smell! It is indescribable. It smelled like green beans, a little like a squeaky disinfectant smell, and urine and feces. People seemed taken care of alright, although I do remember one instance where an old man in a wheelchair, seemingly unattended, kept trying to talk to me from the hallway. He seemed very senile and very much out of it. I was waiting for someone to come by and help him back to his room, but no one did. In general, I do find these homes slightly depressing - this one just didn't stand out to me as being any better. Yes, the home took care of the people's needs for food, water, cleanliness, and comfort in general and kept those up to standards, but again, it was not very happy feely there. "

"After having double knee replacement, I needed a place to recuperate for just a few weeks after the surgery. I was hesitant about going to a nursing home, and I also felt a little awkward because I was younger than most of the residents. However, I was made to feel most welcome and was well taken care of. I was able to get all of my physical therapy done on a daily basis and rest afterwards. My family was allowed to come and encourage me, and I proceeded with my rehabilitation very quickly. In fact, I continued with Lifecare‘s physical therapy for another two weeks and was ready to be out on my own. I was walking without a walker or a cane after just four weeks! (The doctors had estimated 10 to 12 weeks with walking assistance such as a cane or walker. ). The staff was fabulous, friendly, and accommodating! I have also visited many friends there in the nursing home and assisted living areas. I would highly recommend this facility, and if any of my loved ones needed their care I would not hesitate to use them."

"We've placed a deposit at Cedar Hill and we'll be moving my cousin in within the next 30 days. It's a smaller community. It is very nice and very personable. They have nice grounds, and they have a common room that has a pool table and a large screen TV. They have a beauty parlor on-site. They do a lot of get-togethers with the residents and they do a lot of field trips where they take them out to do things in the community. They're very helpful. The dining area is very nice. There is a little kitchenette in the room where she will be, but they encourage them to eat all of their meals in the dining area."

"My parents just moved in yesterday at Heritage Point, and we chose it because it was much nicer, the rooms were bigger, and the people were friendlier. However, I’m not happy with the price, but everything else was excellent and the care that we were looking for. They can play games, go out for a walk, and get their hair done or get a pedicure. They have ice cream socials, entertainment every Saturday, church services forum, and other things to keep them busy. Everybody that we had spoken and any questions that I have, I was really impressed with the answers that I’ve got. They seemed really concerned and genuine about everything they told us. "

"LifeCare is close to my home, my church and all my friends, and that's pretty much why I chose it. It's very clean and very nice too. The staff is excellent. Their food is also excellent. I ate there with my daughter. I have a sitting room, a bedroom, a shower, and a bathroom. In the living area across from where I sit in the chair, there is a little refrigerator and a stove. "
