Assisted Living Communities in Kingston, TN

"We went to tour The Groves at Oak Ridge. Of all the ones that I've been to, this is the one I'm really leaning towards. The tour was excellent. It was all on one level, which I like. It was laid out nicely, kind of in a circle. You can go out one way, go around, come in a shorter way, and it's just nice. It was very clean. The staff was very knowledgeable. She had everything laid out and all the information that we needed. She took us to visit the room, and she was very helpful. Their staff had been there for years, so that's a plus right there. I liked the studio room. I know it was small, but it was nice. It had a refrigerator and a microwave, plus it had windows. They had 3 courtyards. We didn't go out because it was too cold. We did go to the dining room, and it was nice. It had round tables. We also looked at the activities that they had set out. She explained that they were color-coded for the environmental stuff and social stuff."

"The facility was not informed of my visit by you. She made time for a tour for me anyway and was very helpful"

"I can't say enough good things about autumn care. The staff go above and beyond to take care of the residents. The food is absolutely fantastic, pretty much restaurant quality. Along with the top-notch food, the facility is beautiful and clean. We're very happy with our choice and Raeleen, the new director, is always available and seems to really know her stuff. If you're looking for a place that will make your loved ones feel safe and well cared for, I don't think you can do much better. "

"I toured both assisted living and memory care at Rain Forest Landings. The community areas in the assisted living part were attractive and nice. We enjoyed the dining room and the fireplace they had going, and the food was pretty good. The lady who gave us the tour was very nice and informative. We like the rooms, especially the community areas, the lobby, and different places to either relax with other people or engage in activities, but also just to walk around and have a seat and relax. We mostly looked at empty rooms. They seemed nice enough. They had a respite room that we could look at that was furnished and it looked like it would be one of our choices to try, a respite stay first before we committed to moving in permanently. The food was pretty good. I enjoyed it and I think my wife did, too. It was enjoyable. It didn't taste off or unpleasant in any way. It was better than average. The memory care was segregated largely from the assisted living. It was much more limited in the amenities and the overall ambiance. It's very attractive in the assisted living part. Te memory care part, was a little more utilitarian. I understand there are fewer people there apparently, so they have more limited amenities and spaces. You don't have a huge, cheerful dining room with a roaring fireplace. Those kinds of things are lacking, which I understand."

"American House West Knoxville was clean. We like the place. The lady was great. She was very nice. She had a lot of experience, especially with memory care patients. We were impressed with her. She did a good job. They showed us a menu and everything about what they had. Everything was clean. I thought the memory care place was just a little bit dark. The apartments were laid out fine, but they were a little bit smaller."

"My tour experience with Northshore Heights Located in Knoxville was very good. We went to several places and saw a lot of facilities, and this is the best fit for my mother-in-law. The staff was really, really friendly and very knowledgeable. We saw a large studio, I thought the rooms were very roomy, they weren't tiny and has decent space. We didn't try their food, but the dining room looked good, the food looked good, and the menus looked good. They have a 24-hour schedule of events, especially for people that don't sleep well. So even in the middle of the night, they have movies going, they have something happening with people with Alzheimer's, so we like that. We were very impressed with everything we saw. There were people at different levels and people were doing different things, so we like that."

"Fun place for all to enjoy, the activities staff are always busy with residents. They have exercise every morning and plan around what the residents like."

"My brother moved into Deane Hill Place's assisted living. They've been making upgrades and updates, and all of them were nice. My brother wanted to be within walking distance of other places, that's kind of important to him, and this place has a shopping center and a grocery store nearby that he can walk to. The only staff member I've met is the lady we talked to, who was very nice and friendly. I haven't experienced any of the activities, but they have scheduled ones and there's a calendar that you can look at to see what's coming up. It looked full of fun stuff to do, so that's good. The dining area was small but nice. They have five little buildings, and each one has a separate dining hall, so they were fairly small. I'm guessing 8 or 10 tables at the most, where four people can sit at a table."

"My mother is here. Everything is very nice. They're very helpful and friendly people. It's very clean. They have a lot of social activities. She enjoys it there; she just can't afford it anymore. She has a small one-bedroom. It has a private bath, a sink, and a microwave. It's very comfortable. They take them to places. They have different activities. I couldn't list all of them because I haven't been there that often, but I know it's a very active community."

"Victorian Square was pretty nice. The staff who toured us around did well showing us everything and telling us everything we need to know. The dining area was nice. They had everything from movie nights to bingo and all kinds of activities. The rooms were adequate. It had a place for a bed and a bathroom, and basic stuff you would need. The layout of the place was just a little awkward."

"Linda Gregg Trenton is amazing in every way, treats his staff with the utmost respect. Genuinely cares and has compassion for his patients. He welcomes everyone with open arms, it’s a friendly, family oriented atmosphere feels like home. He keeps the place sparkling clean, the food is absolutely delicious. If you are looking for a place for your loved one, you have found it. My Mom loves it here. ."

"Morning Pointe of Lenoir City is a great place. I would highly rate them. The amenities are good. The people that work there are nice. It's bright, cheery, and clean. It does not smell when you walk in. They have lots of active people and a lot of activities offered. The meals looked good. It's really a nice place. "

"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. "
