Morning Pointe of Knoxville provides both assisted living and memory care, each backed by 24-hour staffing and individualized service plans. Licensed nurses oversee medication administration, monitor chronic conditions, and coordinate directly with physicians to adjust treatments as residents’ needs change. For memory care, a secured neighborhood limits wandering risks, and team members trained in dementia techniques guide daily routines, redirection, and behavioral support. Families receive regular health updates, and the community uses an electronic records system so care plans remain current.
Beyond clinical oversight, the community offers on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy through outside providers, scheduled wellness checks, and daily reminders for activities of daily living. An emergency call system is monitored around the clock, and staff are trained in first aid and CPR. Scheduled transportation takes residents to medical appointments, and pharmacy delivery services reduce missed doses. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and assistance with grooming or bathing are available according to each resident’s care level.
Apartments come in a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and companion layouts equipped with step-in showers, grab bars, and emergency pull cords; some units have kitchenettes, walk-in closets, or patio access, but not all accommodations include every feature. Utilities except phone are bundled, basic cable is available, and weekly housekeeping is standard. Maintenance handles repairs, and common areas include living rooms, courtyards, and activity spaces. Pets are allowed; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Residents receive three meals daily prepared by culinary staff following dietitian-reviewed menus, with options for no-added-salt, diabetic, or mechanically altered diets. Table service is offered in a central dining room, and staff provide cues or assistance for those with memory loss. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day, and families can arrange guest meals. If a resident is recovering from illness, room-service trays can be delivered so nutritional needs are not interrupted.
