Overview of Spring Meadows Health Care Center

Spring Meadows Health Care Center is a 32-bed nursing home in Clarksville, Tennessee, at 220 TN-76, operated by Spring Meadows Retirement Village LLC under Administrator Shannon R. Jones. It’s a small facility in a car-dependent area (Walk Score 22) that has been running for 39 years and is now at full capacity with all 32 beds occupied. The average resident stay is about 136 days. The home accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

Staffing metrics tell a consistent story across all categories. RNs work 25 minutes per resident per day, versus 37 minutes statewide. LPNs work 57 minutes daily, below Tennessee’s 1 hour 6 minutes. Nursing aides supply 2 hours 1 minute, compared to the state average of 2 hours 9 minutes. Total nursing coverage runs 3 hours 13 minutes per resident per day, about 12 percent short of the Tennessee average. These aren’t tiny gaps. They add up when you’re managing residents through recovery or managing chronic conditions.

The inspection record reflects strain. Over six years, Spring Meadows recorded 24 citations, which is 500 percent higher than the typical Tennessee nursing home.

In April 2023, a complaint investigation flagged an Immediate Jeopardy situation. A resident with cognitive impairment eloped, spent 58 minutes unsupervised outside, and the facility lacked adequate oversight to prevent it. They filed a correction plan.

The July 2024 follow-up inspection confirmed those corrective actions were held and found no new harm-level issues. That same inspection, though, documented additional problems: late resident assessments (7 of 28), gaps in infection control protocol, deficient feeding tube care, inadequate care planning, environment and safety violations, and insufficient staff training.

What you’re looking at is a small, rural nursing home operating at maximum capacity with nursing staff running lean compared to state norms and a recent history of serious regulatory violations alongside demonstrable corrective action. The Immediate Jeopardy elopement situation was addressed, which matters. The broader pattern of deficiencies across infection control, assessments, and staff training signals systemic pressures that may not be fully resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Tennessee

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Tennessee?

Assisted living in Tennessee is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Tennessee Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — Tennessee Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 193 nursing homes in Tennessee. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home in Tennessee?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Tennessee, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting nursing homes in Tennessee?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
