Overview of Regency Retirement Village

Regency Retirement Village is a senior living community in Morristown, Tennessee, offering assisted living, memory care, and respite care. The community has been in operation since 2007 under the Morristown Senior Services, LLC, with 168 licensed beds. With an occupancy rate of 59.3%, which is lower than the state average, the community has availability for immediate placement.

The community stands out from many Tennessee assisted living communities through its 24-hour licensed nursing coverage. While many assisted living settings do not maintain around-the-clock nursing staff, the community’s continuous clinical presence provides additional oversight and faster response capability for residents experiencing changes in health status.

One of the most unique aspects of the campus is its intergenerational design. The community is home to Regency Kids & Co., a licensed on-site daycare program that creates regular interaction between children and older adults. This daily connection between generations is uncommon in senior living settings and contributes to a more active, socially engaging environment through shared activities, informal interactions, and scheduled programs designed to encourage connection, emotional wellness, and cognitive engagement.

Extensive amenities, including both private and shared spaces, are available, along with complimentary transportation, weekly housekeeping, and dining services. Programming includes veterans-focused activities, resident council participation, and community events. The community’s size and broad range of services also create an environment that can support a variety of lifestyles and care needs within one location.

Regency Retirement Village appeals to older adults and families seeking long-term flexibility in care planning, particularly for individuals who may eventually transition from independent living into assisted living or memory care. Its combination of extensive amenities, continuous nursing coverage, intergenerational programming, and large-campus resources positions it as one of the more comprehensive senior living options in the East Tennessee region.

Quality ratings

Measured by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)

Overall rating Info The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Health Inspection Info Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Staffing Info Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Quality Measures Info Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

Hours per resident per day — compared to state averages

Total nursing care / resident Info Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.

Rank #133 / 192Nurse hours — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 133rd out of 192 homes in Tennessee. Shows adjusted nurse hours per resident per day benchmarked to the Tennessee average, with a ranking across 192 Tennessee facilities. More hours mean more direct care. The national average is about 3.5 hrs; below 3.0 is a red flag.Rankings are based only on facilities in Tennessee that report data for that category.

vs avg
Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 36m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 42m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life. 2h 0m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours. 2h 56m per day
Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation. 4m per day
Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent. 26m per day
