South Knoxville Living is an excellent place

From the first meeting with [Name Removed] it was everything we could possibly want for our dad. South Knoxville Living was welcoming from the grounds to inside each cottage. Residents are all helpful, friendly, & willing to do anything for each other. Staff is super kind and supportive to each resident. Medical staff is awesome. My dad is very happy there and that is so comforting to know as I live so far away. South Knoxville senior Living is an excellent care facility and would recommend it.

Great choice for our family

I give 5 to all questions. My sister-in-law is the resident and I don't have much to say about Activities.

The residents in her cottage have been so helpful to our family member in explaining sch

Overall it's good. Just a few things needs improving.

Overall it's good. Just a few things needs improving. More sweeping, faster response when she pushes the button, better food, but no serious complaints overall.

"Clean, safe environment"

The price point actually was the first draw. While this community wasn't the fanciest or offered the most services, the overall value was worth it. My mom is in a clean, safe environment which is what matters more than having the most "bells and whistles".
