"Wellington Manor Assisted Living is great so far. Everybody's been super nice. They bend over backwards to accommodate us. My mother seems to enjoy the food. Everything is laid out pretty nice and the rooms are around the central gathering place. She's in the memory care wing."

"This is my 5th year coming here, my caregiver goes on vacation for a couple of months, so I come here while she is gone. I have R/A, so I need help dressing and taking a shower. While I'am here I have Physical Therapy, The therapists are very good, When I came here five years ago I could barely walk, with there help I have progressed and now I can use a walker to get around. I have Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy. the Occupational Therapist are getting my upper body stronger. The Physical Therapist are getting my lower body stronger. I had a Hip Replacement done on Feb. 3 and came here for rehab. It is going great my hip doesn't hurt at all and is getting stronger every day. The Nurses here are very good, they stay on top of my medications, I take a lot every day. If I have a question about medications they give me an answer right away. They also have church on Sunday's, they have a hairdresser on Saturday's they have country singers come in. They also have Bingo. and they have an ice cream parlor, it's not open everyday, but when it is there is a line. The food has improved since I first came here. If you don't like what they are serving you can ask for the alternative, or you can ask for soup and a sandwich. They are very accommodating. So when my caregiver goes away this year I'll be taking my vacation at the Heritage Center."

"Everything at Regency Retirement Village - Morristown was excellent. They had 24-hour nursing assistance. They had a pretty nice setup, but the way they're set up is all about money. It's a struggle because I'm trying to work with Medicaid and Mom's insurance and trying to get her set up in a place like this. It's very expensive. They had activities, and the staff during the tour was excellent."

"My mother was a patient in long term care at Life Care Center of Morristown. She was always clean, comfortable and well taken care of. The staff was amazing. Her CNA’s, nurses, wound care, social services, and everyone made sure her needs were met. I was nervous going in (because of things you hear about nursing homes) but was very grateful she had top notch care from day one. She was never just left in her room. I often found her at the nurses station or listening to a speaker / music (her preference) in a community area. The facility and staff should be commended. The staff answered questions, they were attentive, and very welcoming. Thank you Life Care for coordinating the needs of my mother with hospice at the end of her life. "

"In a word....RUN. This place is not equipped to help your loved one survive. My mother has COPD and was resident for rehab at Ridgeview for a short time. They were in no way able to take care of her. Her room mate had to yell and scream for staff to come and help my mother or she would have died. No place to put your loved one. Run from this facility."

"Signature Lifestyles of Rogersville Assisted Living seems to do well. It was a no nonsense place. They weren't as nice as the other places, but it was a whole lot cheaper. But the best thing I liked about it is you can have your own studio room or one-bedroom. They were just as nice as a $6,000 a month facility, except that place you can have your very own nice apartment that was only about $4,000 a month. The overall place wasn't quite as nice. They didn't have as many rugs on the floor as mostly they have laminate flooring, which is cleaner than rugs. It just wasn't quite as comfy, but it certainly wasn't draconian. But by the same token, they had all the same facilities, they had doctors coming in and out of there, and they had a bus service. So they had everything. It was clean, but it just wasn't as nice, and I noticed they didn't have quite as many staff people there with the size of the facility. It's still in a quiet area of Rogersville, which is really quite nice. The lady that's running the place is a no nonsense woman, and there's no double speak in there. She's like, "This is what we got, and this is how much, and this is what happens." Ask a question, you get an answer. She was happy to give me the complete info on the place, prices, and all the other stuff. They had a big common room. There were a lot of people out and about, and there were no masks. There were people in wheelchairs that were coming in, and going out on the front steps, and out in the courtyard without any problem from the staff. They seemed to be enjoying themselves, so I think it looked to me like the kind of place you call home rather than being locked up."

"Dominion Senior Living of Sevierville was very nice. The person during the tour was nice. They invited us for lunch, but we declined. They have a beauty shop, an exercise room, and a little garden, which was nice. There's a pavilion where you can sit outside and enjoy fresh air."
