The Lantern's warm, attentive, and personalized care allows me to focus on spending time with my grandmother, instead of worrying about her health and safety. Everyone I have interacted with has appeared deeply committed to her wellbeing. Management made the move from assisted living to memory care as easy on our family as possible. They respond to our questions and concerns almost instantaneously. Staff are also wonderful about answering the phone.

My mother in law recieved the absolute best care at the Lantern in Powell TN. Every single care giver we came into contact with not only treated her with excellent care, but with the upmost respect and love. My husband and sister in law knew their mother was in the exact place to receive the best care possible. Thank you Lantern for making a hard time not just bearable but loving for my dear mother in law and for our family. From the time we walked in with her the first day until the end of her care we could not have asked for more. Thank you Lantern of Powell for the love. We are so grateful for each of you.
