Quince Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, a 188-bed skilled nursing facility at 6733 Quince Road in Memphis, Shelby County, Tennessee, is operated by Quince Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC. Owner Julie Cottrell and administrator Felix Strickland oversee operations.
The facility holds a 1-star CMS overall rating, with a 1-star health inspection rating; 65.8% below the Tennessee state average, and maintains exceptionally high occupancy at 94.6%, ranking 33rd among 302 Tennessee facilities.
The facility’s inspection record documents serious, recurring failures in resident care and safety. Most recently, on July 1, 2025, state investigators found that Quince failed to perform neurological assessments and monitoring after a resident experienced a seizure event. That resident subsequently died. The same inspection identified the facility’s failure to timely collect laboratory specimens for another resident exhibiting hematuria, delaying diagnosis and treatment of a urinary tract infection and resulting in hospitalization.
State investigators determined the facility’s nursing staff lacked competencies required to detect changes in resident condition and perform necessary assessments.
All three deficiencies were cited at critical severity; the highest regulatory classification, indicating situations placing residents at imminent risk of death or serious bodily injury. A $72,000 federal civil penalty was imposed in July 2025.
In October 2021, investigators substantiated critical violations for resident elopement; a vulnerable resident with confusion and hallucinations left unsupervised outside the facility for 39 minutes. The same investigation cited critical deficiencies for medication storage and failure to maintain resident dignity. Four inspections since 2019 yielded 21 total citations; 425% above the Tennessee average, with 5 critical violations (355% worse than state average).
Nursing staffing measures 3 hours 47 minutes per resident per day, marginally above the state average of 3 hours 40 minutes.
Financial performance shows an operating loss of $1.3 million against $20.8 million in revenue.
Quince’s inspection history reflects persistent systemic failures in clinical assessment, supervision, and care management, with the most recent critical findings involving irreversible resident harm.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Tennessee
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Tennessee?
Assisted living in Tennessee supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Tennessee?
Assisted living in Tennessee is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Tennessee Medicaid cover assisted living?
Tennessee Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Tennessee) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Tennessee?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Tennessee, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Tennessee?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
