Elk River Health & Nursing Center of Winchester

Elk River Health & Nursing Center of Winchester is a skilled nursing facility located at 32 Memorial Drive in Winchester, Tennessee, the historic county seat of Franklin County. Managed by Twin Rivers Health & Rehabilitation, the center brings focused skilled nursing expertise to one of southern Tennessee's most charming small cities, providing post-acute rehabilitation and long-term care for residents and families throughout the region. The facility's namesake — the Elk River — winds through the area before feeding into Tim's Ford Lake just south of town, one of Tennessee's premier recreational lakes managed by TVA. Tim's Ford State Park offers exceptional scenery, waterfront trails, and picnic areas that make for memorable family visits. The proximity to this natural gem reflects the character of Winchester itself: a community that values outdoor life, history, and a slower, more intentional pace — qualities that contribute significantly to quality of life for senior residents and their visiting loved ones. Downtown Winchester centers around the historic Franklin County Courthouse on the town square, surrounded by locally owned restaurants, boutiques, and community gathering spaces. The Square's proximity to the facility means family members can easily combine visits with a meal at local favorites or a walk through the charming downtown streetscape. The community also lies within a short drive of Tullahoma — home to Arnold Air Force Base and additional medical and retail resources. For healthcare coordination, Southern Tennessee Regional Health System — Winchester campus — serves as the area's primary acute care hospital and is located nearby on Hospital Road. Twin Rivers Health & Rehabilitation's management of Elk River brings organizational experience in skilled nursing operations, focused on quality outcomes, regulatory compliance, and a team-oriented care culture. For Franklin County seniors requiring skilled nursing support — whether for short-term recovery or long-term residential care — Elk River Health & Nursing Center of Winchester offers professional management and a supportive community setting in the heart of Winchester.
