Alzheimer’s Memory Care Community Welcomes You
The Lantern at Morning Pointe of Knoxville is a Center of Excellence community offering a compassionate environment for seniors with a wide spectrum of memory care needs including Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Our memory care services are available in a convenient location not far from downtown Knoxville, Tennessee, and located on the Morning Pointe of Knoxville senior campus.
Our 44 specially designed apartments for Alzheimer’s and other forms of memory loss are nestled in a home-like environment providing residents with structure to help them feel safe and secure.
We understand that seniors living with memory loss have individualized needs that can change on a day to day basis. That is why The Center of Excellence offers two types of programming, The Lamplight Program and The Lantern. Both focus on individual interests, life experiences, and personal strengths allowing for personalized programming.
The Lamplight Program is geared towards residents in early to moderate stages of Alzheimer’s Disease. It offers a large expansive environment that is secure and safe.
The Lantern Program is geared towards residents in the late to moderately severe stages of Alzheimer’s Disease. It offers a smaller more intimate environment. The purpose: to provide assistance with daily living that focuses on prompting and cueing with a greater amount of physical assistance from the staff and to provide a superior resident to caregiver ratio to promote excellent care and greater level of assistance.
Specialized Memory Care
Through our unique Meaningful Day™ program, we provide personalized care with dignity. By investing time and attention in understanding roles, routines, life experiences and interests of each resident, we create an environment that promotes independence and better quality of life. In our community, our clinical team and support specialists will ensure just the right amount of care at the right time.
