Arbor Terrace Knoxville offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, giving residents access to support that matches their level of independence as well as specialized programming for Alzheimer’s disease and other advanced dementia conditions. The community is prepared to manage wandering behaviors at any time of day, elopement risk, behavioral issues, nighttime wakefulness, wound care, oxygen use, special diets, residents under 60, and diabetes care for those on either oral medication or insulin injections.
Clinical oversight is reinforced by registered and licensed nurses on staff, background-checked caregivers, an activity director trained to adapt programs to medical needs, and multiple emergency alert options that include in-room pull cords and personal response systems. A visiting physician, on-site podiatry, and a therapy room reduce the need for outside trips for routine care. Team members can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, some help with eating, and can carry out transfers that involve walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, or a single-person lift.
Apartments are designed for comfort and safety, with layouts that may include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and cable access, along with regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry service. Because floor plans vary, not every residence contains every listed feature, so prospective residents should review specific units during a tour.
Meals are prepared daily with both set menus and an on-order option, and snacks are available throughout the day. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings, and dietary modifications—whether for diabetic, cardiac, or texture-modified needs—are managed by the culinary team in coordination with clinical staff.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-friendly common areas, a barber and beauty shop, internet connectivity, communal gardens, a bistro, a fireplace lounge, a large courtyard, scheduled transportation, and religious services held on the premises. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
