Autumn Care West Knoxville is an assisted living community in Knoxville, Tennessee, that offers personal care and memory care for older adults throughout Knox County and the greater West Knoxville area. The community has operated since 2013 as part of the locally owned Autumn Care family of senior living communities, a Knoxville-based organization with multiple locations throughout the region. With a 56-bed capacity, the community has studio, deluxe studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts.
24-hour caregiving support, medication management, housekeeping, laundry services, and routine maintenance assistance are offered, along with a specialized memory care program and therapies. The community also collaborates with Mission Mobile Medical Care to provide on-site primary care, behavioral healthcare, wound care, and podiatry services. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are also available onsite, while smaller pets are allowed within resident apartments.
Shared spaces, restaurant-style dining, and recreational spaces are provided, along with regular activities and excursions to destinations throughout the Knoxville area and the nearby Smoky Mountains region. The community’s location in the Farragut corridor also provides convenient access to healthcare and everyday services.
The community has undergone a recent inspection in March 2023, under the Tennessee Department of Health, Division of Health Care Facilities, which conducts unannounced inspections and compliance reviews. However, no detailed findings, enforcement actions, fines, or substantiated complaints were identified in the reviewed materials.
With extensive amenities, onsite healthcare partnerships, and a strong emphasis on lifestyle engagement, Autumn Care West Knoxville appeals to older adults seeking a locally owned community that combines independent living, assisted living, and memory care within the West Knoxville and Farragut area.
Overview of Parkview Independent Living
Situated in Knoxville, Parkview Independent Living serves residents 55 and older across independent, assisted, and memory care living arrangements. The community embraces a pet-friendly model where dogs and cats reside alongside residents. Complimentary transportation and parking infrastructure support resident mobility and visitor access.
As a non-CMS-certified independent and assisted living provider, Parkview operates outside the federal inspection and rating framework governing skilled nursing homes. State inspection data and CMS quality metrics do not apply to this community type.
Residents requiring Medicaid coverage should discuss payment arrangements directly with the facility, as enrollment in federal programs remains unconfirmed.
Walkability scores 35 out of 100 at the community’s location, placing it 270th among Tennessee’s comparable communities. Most daily errands and trips depend on car travel or the facility’s provided transportation service. Provided shuttle services mitigate limited neighborhood walkability for residents without personal vehicles.
The facility presents itself around three structural pillars: multiple care-level floor plans, pet acceptance, and transportation support. These features align with residents seeking aging-in-place flexibility, moving between independent and assisted arrangements without relocation, while maintaining household pets.
Active adults age 55 and above who value pet companionship and manageable community support without intensive medical oversight find alignment with Parkview’s residential model.
