How current is the state inspection of Autumn Care, LLC?

Autumn Care, LLC's last survey date in the state listing is December 8, 2021, 58 months ago at the time of this build.

Tennessee's ACLF rule calls for an unannounced visit within 15 months of the last one, so this date is older than the cycle. Public listings are sometimes updated late; ask the administrator for the most recent statement of deficiencies and the plan of correction that answered it.

For comparison, half of the region's 57 ACLFs show a listed survey more than 38 months old.

Does Autumn Care, LLC offer locked memory care?

No secured unit is reported: the October 2026 bed report shows zero secured beds at Autumn Care, LLC, so a resident who begins trying to leave the building would normally move to a community with a locked unit.

Memory loss alone does not force a move; Tennessee's test is whether the resident can still evacuate safely and does not need a locked door. The closest ACLFs reporting secured beds are Morning Pointe of Hardin Valley in Knoxville (20 secured beds, same ZIP); The Lantern at Morning Pointe of Hardin Valley in Knoxville (70 secured beds, same ZIP); Arbor Terrace of Knoxville in Knoxville (30 secured beds, 4.2 mi).

Has the Health Facilities Commission disciplined Autumn Care, LLC?

The state shows a clean enforcement record for Autumn Care, LLC: zero actions on the HFC listing and no mention in the Facility Action and Abuse Reports checked back to January 2025.

An empty enforcement column only means no penalty order was issued. Routine survey citations are fixed through plans of correction and never show up here, so the survey report is still the document to read.
