The Best Assisted Living Communities in Sevier County, TN

"We were very impressed with Northshore Heights - Knoxville. You feel like you're going into a resort hotel because it had a lot of seating outside. It had the look of a resort hotel both in the front when you went in and in the back where they had a very nice seating area. The back faces up a hill, and it's on a ridge. It was nicely laid out. It was very comfortable because when you go in the front, there were seating areas out there where people can just hang out. In the back, they had the same thing with a patio area, and it was very comfortable. The dining room had a very high ceiling. It had a kind of a lodge feel to it. The apartment units were all nice. The building was clean, looked fairly new, and there was a lot of good stuff to it. They didn't try to be too fine on all extras. It wasn't complicated like some places where they have like five different levels. It was a simple model. It makes it more predictable. I liked that we didn't have to try to guess as much on which level my sister-in-law would be. It was a nice facility. It was wheelchair friendly, but you didn't feel like it was a hospital or anything. It had that comfortable feel to it. They had a little bit of a basic menu. It was adequate but it was the kind that you might get bored if that's all you ate. We only talked to the salesperson. She took us around, and she was very pleasant, but it seemed like when you run into the people there, they seemed to be friendly. I didn't see anything negative there. She showed us quite a few units of the different types they had. It was pretty nice. They even had a little land for expansion there."

"my mother in law, my mother and dad, then my dad alone were in what was then Markhill.. Mother in law had independent apartment first, then care in the main building, Mom and Dad had 2bedroom aprt. for some years, then Dad had one bedroom apt, then room in main building. the main building was when more care was needed and not able to wander alone. I noted someone said the diningroom was too far to walk....there was a golf buggy that made rounds to pick up those that could not walk when my Mother in law was there. All in all, I remember thinking this was not bad and I probably could do it when the time came for myself. it was some 15-20 years younger building then. I have not check it lately, but I am downsizing a large home and have been looking for options, so will be looking into this one again. "

"My step-mother moved into Dominion of Sevierville. Her room is adequate-sized and has everything that she needs. They have all-inclusive pricing, like they clean the room for her, they offer medicine-administration, assistance with bathing, and three meals and two snacks a day. They also have a lot of other activities for the seniors. I have a very favorable impression of the staff, they're very compassionate and attentive to her needs. We're very pleased with it, plus the place is very clean."

"I toured South High Senior Living. My dad will be moving in there about the 17th of January. Actually, I did a virtual tour and then they gave me a quick peek when I was there in person dropping the check off. They showed me the memory care unit. It was excellent, and it far exceeded my expectations. The staff was well above and beyond. I saw one room physically, and it was gorgeous, it had big windows, everything looked really nice."

"We have moved my mother-in-law to Renaissance Terrace. I chose it mainly because it's one of the facilities that accepts the CHOICES program. It's one of the two facilities in this area that accepted the CHOICES program for the assisted living level. The staff were very helpful. Everything was fine. The place is very spacious and we are very pleased with the facility. The rooms were the best from what I've seen in the area. It is also very spacious. I would recommend them to anyone. "

"My father in law has been at NHC Fort Sanders for 2 weeks after hospitalization for his third stroke. I am impressed by the cleanliness of the facility and lack of foul smells that occur with chronic incontinence. He is very grouchy but still getting excellent care with the VERY patient and caring staff, especially the physical therapy team, who he literally curses with entire sentences of four letter words. As a medical provider I am well-versed with the “difficult” patient. He is the definition of a difficult patient, but is treated with respect and kindness as well as clinical expertise. "

"Morningview is assisted living but they also offer a separate rehab. My mom is a resident in their assisted living. We looked at other facilities, and out of all of them, we felt that this one suited my mom's needs the best. Unlike the other facility wherein they charge per service, with this one, it's all included in the price. The facility is nice inside. It also smells good. The community rooms are lovely and comfortable. There's a lot of natural light in their rooms and I thought that was nice. Some of other places we visited didn't have much natural light coming in. The staff is very caring. They have quite a few activities going on there. They have exercise class three days a week, church activities, performance group coming in and they have bingo. "

"My mom lived at Heritage at Knoxville for two years. The have very big rooms and their food was good. They have very reasonable prices and they always make the family very welcome. They do bingo, and they also do flowers. They take some day trips and walk to the mountains. They do not have clinical staff and that is probably one of their shortcomings. They just have caregivers, but they really care about the people that live there. "

"The Courtyards Senior Living was extremely nice. The staff was extremely helpful, educating me of how their facilities works. The young lady that I spoke with was very good. They had open dining which I really liked. They offered a lot of interactions between all of the people. They had people come in, and they had games; they had a lot of things that they offered. They were very open, very free with people that they were working with and allowed them to take for themselves even though they were still in the assisted living. They felt like they were at home, and that was one of the things I was very impressed with. "

"The staff at The Courtyards Senior Living- The Meadows was really friendly. The lady showed me one room after another and then the staff came up and she was telling them about the rooms and stuff like that. They were very bubbly as they showed me the assisted living. It was closer to where I live and I just love the friendliness of everybody. The maintenance and cleanliness were excellent too."

"We had a beyond amazing experience with the staff and administrator,Beth. Our mom stayed at Liberty for 5 1/2 years.She wasnt just a resident, she was part of a loving family.she was always included in all the activities. The food is wonderful. The food is home cooked and suited to the residents. Our mother ate food there she would have never touched before. The residents truly care a great deal for each other.kelly the activities director is a blessing. The activities are fun,engaging and keep the mind active.i cant say enough about Beth. She was always available to answer questions, offer help,and made sure our mother was always cared for as of she were a member of her family. The facility is always clean and decorated nicely. The nurses go above and beyond.when we traveled we always knew she was in very good hands. When it came down near the end ,everyone was so kind and loving. Someone to check on us make sure we ate, and provided all the love and support we could imagine was always close by. I truly love each and every stsff member there.i will never gorget their kindness. If you are looking for a home environment for your loved one, you really should consider Liberty Assisted Living.You will be more than happy that you did. "

"I moved my mother to this wonderful facility over a year ago after several months in another Knoxville assisted living. Courtyards on Inskip was always my first choice, but they didn't have an opening when I first moved my mom from her home. You could not find a better place anywhere; I am convinced of that. I visited every facility in town numerous times, and some in other cities, to be sure I was choosing the best place. The Courtyards is just different in all the ways that matter. First of all, you feel at home immediately upon entering the facility. The facility is airy and has lots of windows; the individual resident rooms are larger than anywhere else, with nice windows and beautiful bathroom and large closets. The residents enjoy a beautiful backyard setting with gazebo and seating, fountain, and garden area. And as the director, Cindy Winegar, likes to say, you feel just as good when you leave at the end of your visit as you do when you arrive. I sleep well at night knowing my mother has this kind of caring environment. The employees are simply amazing, from the director to the activities director, to the wonderful nurses, to the cooks and cleaning personnel who all help with the caregiving as well. Everyone there is a caregiver at heart and they function as such. They go WAY above and beyond the call of duty. They are super busy all the time but they treat you and your parent as though you are the most important people in the world. The food is wonderful and my mother, who had lost weight in her first assisted living, gained back the weight and then some to become much stronger. This was one of my main concerns. Everyone at the Courtyards is family, not only to my mother, but to me. The staff is so well trained, and it is obvious they have ongoing training and are well versed in all aspects of cognitive decline. They have helped me so much and guided me along the journey of my mother's memory decline. You can feel pretty alone without this kind of help and guidance. The cost is lower than any of the other facilities I would have considered for my mom, and they don't hide any fees like the others. What you see is what you get. The Courtyards is simply head and shoulders above any other place. I pat myself on the back daily for finding it and moving my mother when I had the chance. This is where I plan to go when my time comes!! (Sometimes when i see and smell the food I'm ready to move in now.) "

"I was at first happy with visiting this facility as the staff seemed professional and the facility was clean and up to date. After I had visited this facility and one of the patients a few times, I was in a patients room, I saw a tech change a patients brief, and immediately after standing bedside, the tech took out her phone and began texting. I found this to be very unprofessional. This happened a few more times. I was not happy with the professionalism at all. "
