Is Quail Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center's state inspection up to date?

HFC's facility listing gives December 6, 2022 as the date of Quail Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center's last survey, about 46 months before this page was built.

That is longer than the 15-month interval Tennessee's ACLF rule sets for unannounced inspections (0720-26-.05(1)). The public listing can lag behind actual visits, so ask Quail Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center for its most recent statement of deficiencies and plan of correction, which it should be able to produce.

Across all 35 licensed ACLFs in the three counties, the median gap since the last listed survey is 27 months.

Has Tennessee taken disciplinary action against Quail Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center?

Yes. HFC lists 2 disciplinary actions against Quail Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center, the most recent dated February 25, 2026; Tennessee's civil penalties for ACLFs run up to $1,000 per violation for care and records problems and up to $3,000 per resident for keeping an inappropriately placed resident.

  • February 25, 2026: Commission Consent Order assessing two (2) civil monetary penalties of two thousand dollars ($2,000) each, for a total CMP of four thousand dollars ($4,000) — Violations affecting the health, safety, and welfare of residents

Tennessee's secured-unit rule asks for one awake attendant on the unit at all times, a three-person evaluation before admission, a quarterly review of whether the placement still fits, and yearly Alzheimer's training for 100% of unit staff (0720-26-.08(9)).
