Dominion Senior Living of Athens sits on a peaceful ten-acre property between Knoxville and Chattanooga, where a white farmhouse-style building is surrounded by green lawns, tall trees, and a scenic pond, and you'll notice the inviting front porches with rows of rocking chairs and well-kept flower beds, making it a tranquil place for older adults. The community offers both assisted living and memory care services, so residents get support with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, and there are specially designed options for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia to help reduce confusion and wandering. Bedrooms in the Memory Care area have comfortable beds, bright windows, and modern furnishings, and all the hallways have handrails and lots of light, making it easier and safer for everyone to move around. Residents pass by a grand piano, cozy seating areas, bookshelves, and activity rooms during the day, and there are always board games or a pool table available for friendly games or checkers with neighbors. The dining rooms stand out with their wood beams, stylish chandeliers, and cushioned seats where chef-prepared meals are served to keep everyone nourished, while the outdoor courtyard offers quiet places to sit, fresh air, and flower paths to enjoy on a sunny afternoon, and you'll also see the walking path and sensory gardens that wrap around the grounds. The team's faith-based mission helps create a sense of respect and dignity for every resident, and there are regular spiritual, social, and wellness activities like worship services, group exercises, and outings organized each week, plus there's Wi-Fi in all common areas so families can visit and stay in touch. The community has a modern craftsman-style look inside with warm lighting, and private rooms come with emergency call systems to keep everyone safe, along with on-site rehabilitation and respite care services for those needing a short stay or extra help. A caring staff is always available 24 hours a day to assist with health needs and coordinate care, and they make care plans specific to each resident, updating them as needed so people feel secure as they age. With salon services, transportation, nutritious chef-prepared food, and plenty of places to relax or enjoy activities, Dominion Senior Living of Athens gives seniors a supportive, calm environment where people can live comfortably and maintain their independence as long as possible, all while being cared for by a family-owned team focused on service, faith, and community.

Impressive facility but staffing concerns
I visited and was impressed - gorgeous, spotless, modern facility with roomy, homey apartments, restaurant-style dining, chapel/salon, lots of activities and family events; residents looked engaged and happy. Staff and administration were warm, responsive and caring, with good medical access (PA, on-duty nurse, PT) and smooth transition support. A few recurring concerns: inconsistent housekeeping/room cleanliness, food portioning, and - most importantly - reports of understaffing and lapses in dementia supervision (weekends/infrequent checks) that families should clarify. Overall I'd recommend it but urge asking detailed staffing and memory-care protocols before deciding.
