Social Life & Activities at Northshore Heights

BOOK YOUR GUIDED TOUR

Our Philosophy

An Engaging Activity for Every Interest

At Northshore Heights, social connection is at the center of everything we do. On any given morning, you might find residents working through a brain teaser in the Activity Room, joining Sit & Fit with our friends from UT Home Health, or heading out to Bravo Italian Kitchen for lunch. By afternoon, the Dining Room comes alive with live music. By evening, it’s Movie & Mingle, Bingo, or Singing Circle. And when most communities go quiet for the night, our Night Owl Calendar keeps the activity going.

Our calendar runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with programming across our Activity Room, Dining Room, Library, beautiful outdoor patios, and beyond. Whether your loved one wants a competitive round of Trivia, a peaceful afternoon in the Library with the Puzzle Club, or a late-night game of Dominoes, there is always something on the calendar and there’s always an activity for everyone.

An Activity for Everyone

A Full Calendar of Activities for Every Interest

Our 24/7 activities schedule is so robust that in addition to our Activity Room and Dining Room, which have a constant flow of scheduled event, we also have programming throughout the building and out in the community. This creates an energetic and welcoming environment where every resident feels stimulated, included, and at home. Some examples are:

  • Daily Fitness & Movement Programs


    From Sit & Fit with UT Home Health and Fun Fitness with Sandy, to Chair Dancercise, Gentle Stretch, and our daily Walking Club, our fitness programming meets every resident at their own pace and keeps the whole community moving.

  • Music Therapy & Live Entertainment


    Every week we welcome live musicians and performers to our Dining Room, artists like Cliff Justice, Marc Beecher, Timothy Stoffberg, Johnny Jukebox, and Terri Bewley-Conner have all brought their talent to our residents. It’s one of the most anticipated parts of the week, and it shows.

  • Arts, Crafts & Creative Programs


    Whether it’s a Door Hanger craft, Paper Plate Patchwork, flower arranging, or a seasonal project with Home Instead Senior Care, our creative programs give residents the time and space to make things

  • Spiritual Life & Faith Services


    We honor every resident’s faith tradition with regular services and devotionals from Calvary Chapel, Central Baptist Bearden, Temple Baptist Church, among others. All beliefs and backgrounds are welcomed.

  • Community Outings & Off-Campus Adventures


    Residents regularly head out into Knoxville for meals at Bravo Italian Kitchen, ice cream at Bruster’s, and shopping trips. Staying connected to the community they call home is part of the program, not an afterthought.

  • Classes & Clubs Designed by Residents


    From the Puzzle Club and Men’s Club to the Walking Club and beyond, our resident-designed programs reflect the real interests of the people who live here, because the best activities come from the community itself.

  • Outdoor Putting Green


    For residents who love the game or just want a reason to get outside, our putting green offers a fun and low-key way to enjoy some friendly competition in the fresh air.

  • Outdoor Water Feature with Koi Pond


    A peaceful spot to sit, relax, and watch the koi with our outdoor water feature gives residents a quiet retreat right on campus whenever they need a moment to themselves.

  • Social Gatherings, Games, & Happy Hours


    From weekly bingo and trivia to happy hour, cornhole, karaoke, pictionary, Men’s Club, and our monthly birthday party in the dining room as there is always something social on the calendar and always a seat at the table.

  • And of course, bingo!
