My friend has been there for 3 years and is being treated very well. She is in the Memory Care unit and the staff there treats her like a friend.

The Pointe at Lifespring in Knoxville, TN
5.0

My mother in law (90) spent the last 2 1/2 years of her life in care at The Pointe at Lifespring. She received the kindest, most loving and thoughtful care we could have ever asked for or imagined right up until her passing on [date removed]. She was treated with dignity and respect, and cared for like she was the matriarch of The Pointe family. We are eternally grateful for the leadership, staff and support from The Pointe, and recommend them for the care of you or your loved one. My MIL suffered from dementia and Alzheimer's for many years. The staff at The Pointe has a highly trained and dignifed memory care area. We can't thank [name removed] and [name removed], as well as the entire staff for the love and compassion over the past 2 1/2 years. We have been blessed to know and love The Pointe community. We had used 2 other care facilities in Knoxville prior to moving her into The Pointe, this made us fully aware of the differences in levels of care. The Pointe was by far the best!
