Shannondale Knoxville sits in West Knoxville close to I-40, West Town Mall, and Turkey Creek, so getting around or having visitors come by is pretty easy, and the campus itself is set up with wide green lawns, putting greens, and a scenic park-like atmosphere, with walking paths, big trees, classic streetlights, and a large clock at the entrance that gives it a familiar neighborhood feel. Residents can pick from studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, or even one- and two-bedroom bungalows, villas, and duplexes in the Buckingham neighborhood, and many layouts include open kitchens with breakfast bars, washers and dryers, maintenance, and safety features like handrails and sprinkler systems; some apartments also have private patio or balcony spots looking over the grounds. Each room comes with cable TV, and the living areas are furnished with comfortable couches, accent chairs, and a television, while common spaces include an activity and game room with billiards tables, comfortable seating, and lots of big windows for light and outdoor views, plus an elegant two-story area with a fireplace, decorative railing, and hardwood floors.
Shannondale offers several levels of care: independent living for seniors who are mostly active, assisted living for those who need some daily help, memory care services, skilled nursing, and rehab. There's even a respite care program for families taking care of loved ones at home who need a little break. Residents get support with bathing, dressing, grooming, laundry, toileting, medication help, and personal care from assistants and nurses. Medical services include on-site nurses, occupational therapy, wound care, podiatry, and medication support, with 24-hour nursing help for emergencies. There's a fitness center, a wellness center, a beauty and barber shop, an indoor courtyard with a water fountain, and private dining rooms where three nutritious meals a day get served, prepared with attention to quality and nutrition.
The staff and care team at Shannondale Home, under administrator Angie Schiller, have a reputation for treating residents with warmth, kindness, and patience, always starting care with a smile and sometimes even a hug, and the certified nursing assistants receive special training focused on both emotional and physical support. Social activities, educational programs, spiritual groups, arts and crafts, and health and wellness programs fill up the daily calendar, and there's wi-fi throughout the building to keep folks connected. Transportation can be scheduled for errands or outings, and guest parking is available. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and room maintenance are provided, so chores don't pile up. Residents and families can view floor plans, photos, and even take live video tours to see the spaces before moving in.
Room options include private rooms that run $7,500 to $9,500 per month or semi-private rooms from $6,500 to $8,500 per month, reflecting the level of care and services included. Shannondale Knoxville has earned recognition for its unique approach to care, keeping residents involved and active with a variety of programs and keeping their environment secure and pleasant, and it has won the Best of Senior Living Award for its care and support. Meals, social and fitness activities, and comfortable, modern spaces are all part of the amenities and the community tries to make life as easy as possible for every resident, whether they're there for independent living, assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing care.
