Recent reviews for nursing homes in Knoxville
The Phoenix at Lake Joy in Warner Robins, GA
3.4
Our loved one was previously a resident at The Phoenix at Lake Joy. The quality of care declined. If not for hospice, I don't know what we would have done. We ended up moving our loved one to another facility. I would not recommend The Phoenix at Lake Joy to others.
Madison Heights at Prado in Macon, GA
4.9
Communication has been fantastic. About events going on. Keeping us apprised of Mom's involvement and participation or when she needs extra encouragement. Sends us photos etc. makes us feel better about not being with her all of the time.
The Cottages on Wesleyan in Macon, GA

The Cottages is a wonderful facility with a great staff. They have provided my mother with a very caring and supportive environment. The scale of operations at The Cottages gives it a home/family feel that is unique and enables a very personalized experience.
