+
Wood Village, located at 520 Old Highway 68 in Sweetwater, Tennessee, is a trusted skilled nursing community with deep roots in Monroe County.

Situated along the scenic Old Highway 68 corridor, the facility enjoys a tranquil setting surrounded by the rolling landscapes of East Tennessee. Sweetwater itself is a community that seniors and families find genuinely inviting. The world-renowned Lost Sea Adventure, just a few miles away, is a beloved local landmark, while the pastoral grounds of Sweetwater Valley Farm — famous throughout the region for its handcrafted cheeses — reflect the agricultural heritage of Monroe County. Tellico Lake to the south and the Cherokee National Forest to the east provide stunning natural surroundings, and the nearby town of Madisonville offers additional dining, shopping, and services. For healthcare access, Sweetwater Valley Medical Center serves as the community's primary acute care hospital, and specialist networks in the greater Knoxville area are within reach for residents requiring advanced medical services. The proximity of these resources gives families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are never far from the care they may need. As a nonprofit, Wood Village reinvests in its staff, programming, and facilities rather than external shareholders — a structural difference that many families find meaningful when choosing long-term skilled nursing care.
