Trinity Hills of Knoxville sits along Asheville Highway in East Knoxville, right in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, and this place is part of the Cornerstone Senior Living network, so you'll find it follows some standards but there's a warm local feeling too. This senior living community has a smaller building, which lets residents get more personal attention without being overlooked, and the staff here treat people kindly and help meet each person's needs, whether that means assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, short-term respite care, or even hospice and skilled nursing services under physicians' supervision. People can pick from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, all on multiple floors with kitchenettes, individual appliances, climate controls, private baths, closet space, Wi-Fi, and cable, and there's pet-friendly policies if residents want to bring along a small friend, though a fee may apply. The apartments are designed for privacy, but there are also many indoor common areas and pretty outdoor gardens for socializing, relaxing, and group activities.
Meals here are chef-prepared and served in communal dining rooms, but room service's available, and dietary needs like diabetic, vegetarian, low-fat, or low-salt diets get accommodated. Transportation and parking help folks get to medical appointments, shopping, or outings, and the building's accessible for wheelchairs, with safety features like controlled access. Housekeeping, laundry, trash, linen service, and regular maintenance keep the place clean and comfortable, while an on-site beautician offers salon and barber shop services, which many residents appreciate. There are fitness programs, yoga, chair exercise, therapy services, and the staff can help with bathing, dressing, grooming, medication, toileting, mealtime reminders, and more for those who need it. The community offers structured daily activities with options like arts and crafts, music, gardening, holiday and seasonal events, movies, and organized outings, along with opportunities for volunteering and religious or devotional services, both on and off-site.
People living at Trinity Hills can expect personalized care plans tailored to their needs and preferences, and there's a part-time nurse, trained aides, and a team dedicated to supporting wellness and well-being around the clock. The memory care unit uses special programs and secure layouts meant to prevent wandering and reduce confusion, including activities for cognitive stimulation. Utility and cable costs are included in the rent, and residents can personalize their apartment with their own things. Pets are allowed, with some policies in place, so folks get to keep their companions. On-site pharmacy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy support health care needs, and there's always someone ready to help if a problem comes up, day or night. Visitation is flexible, neighbors and staff are friendly, the setting's safe, and residents and their families can take tours to get familiar with the place before moving in. Trinity Hills accepts private pay and long-term care insurance, and it's recognized for a joyful, helpful staff who encourage a sense of community and belonging, with attention to both independence and any medical or daily support someone may need as they age.
