Overview of American House West Knoxville

Facebook X (Twitter) Instagram LinkedIn TikTok

American House West Knoxville provides assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Knoxville, TN. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks while a resident keeps a private apartment, while independent living offers private living with community services and no daily care. Memory care is provided in a secured setting with supervision, and respite care offers a short stay. Having these care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move elsewhere.

The community has 125 beds. With a Walk Score of 50, the area is somewhat walkable, so some errands are possible on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to complete certain nearby errands independently. Pets are allowed, which means residents may continue living with their pets.

Residents can spend time on patios, in a courtyard, or in community gardens, and use the theater room, billiards room, library, salon, and barber shop. Live entertainment, chapel services, and other spiritual services are also available. Scheduled transportation and rehabilitation services are offered, while respite stays provide the short term care option described above. Jen Jones serves as administrator, and Ec Opco West Knoxville operates the community.
