Sycamore Trace

Is Sycamore Trace a state-licensed assisted living facility?

Sycamore Trace holds Tennessee assisted-care living facility license #152, issued by the Health Facilities Commission for 51 beds and valid until April 29, 2027.

The license is renewed every year on the anniversary of its first issue in 1999, so the expiration date above should roll forward annually.

How large is Sycamore Trace compared with other assisted living in Roane County?

At 51 licensed beds, Sycamore Trace ranks 2nd of 2 licensed ACLFs in Roane County, one of the smaller buildings, and holds about 44% of the county's licensed assisted living beds.

For context, the median ACLF across Knox and the six surrounding counties is licensed for 70 beds. Licensed beds are a ceiling, not an occupancy count; ask how many residents live there today and how many apartments are shared.

How current is the state inspection of Sycamore Trace?

Sycamore Trace's last survey date in the state listing is August 1, 2022, 51 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.

This listing is older than the seven-county median of 38 months.

Does Sycamore Trace offer locked memory care?

No secured unit is reported: the October 2026 bed report shows zero secured beds at Sycamore Trace, 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 River Oaks Place in Lenoir City (13 secured beds, 9.7 mi); River Oaks Place - Loudon in Loudon (24 secured beds, 9.7 mi); The Premier Neighborhood at Tellico Village in Loudon (34 secured beds, 9.7 mi).

Is there any state enforcement on file for Sycamore Trace?

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

Penalty orders are kept for serious or repeated problems. Ordinary findings stay in the survey file, so request the latest one before you sign anything.
