The Best Senior Living Communities in Black Rock, AR

"Georgia had to go to the hospital every two or three weeks and the last time she went there, she stayed for three weeks. From there, she was sent to the Walnut Ridge Nursing Home. She has Alzheimer's, so she is in a special wing that has Alzheimer's and dementia care. The staff is very good. She can't walk now and they take care of her very well. They have two workers on duty at all times for that particular hall and they have nurses, of course. Her care has been really good. She likes the food very much. I like it because it's very friendly and all the workers are very good. They care about her and they don't pay attention to her small hitting and stuff like that, that she doesn't know what she's doing. They just take it and they all love her and all that kind of stuff instead of hitting back at her or anything like that. "

"This is a first class facility providing excellent care for the patients. The home allows churches to provide worship services for the patients. They allow different groups to come in to provided entertainment for the patients. It is a part of the Lawrence Memorial Hospital Building Complex. Doctors are available if needed at any time. It is a highly rated facility in the state of Arkansas. "

"I felt that it was a little small, but it was very upbeat, and it was very cheerful. I was very pleased. That was where I think would be a great place for my parents at the time. I was very impressed with them. They were having an exercise class the day I was there. They have a little sewing area for women who want to sew because I know that that was something my mother would enjoy. They had a pool table, and one area was what you would call a man cave, where there were sofas and a big TV in there for a sports thing going. It was very nice. "

"This is an excellent facility. My only complaint is that they seem a bit understaffed. There were time when we were there that Nana would need something and it would take about 10 mintues for me to track someone down to help. It is a clean and secure facility. There are also many activites available for the residents. I would highly recommend this facility. "

"St. Bernards Villa is a gated area. No one can go in without being checked out, so you can't just pop in and be there. My sister-in-law has been there for three months now. She has an area for a couch, a TV, a bedroom, and the bathroom is very handicap accessible. There is a door that goes out into a private patio where she can walk or sit. They have activities in the morning and in the afternoon. They have wonderful meals. It is a really wonderful place."

"I had my surgery and St. Bernards HealthCare came out for two weeks for physical therapy. As far as physical therapy, they were really good. The people that came was really sweet and nice. They could have helped a little bit more with house work. The caregiver comes in 30 minutes to an hour a day, helped me take a shower and that's about it. I barely had time to get a bath and she'd go. There was no home cleaning or nothing like that. The caregiver was wonderful, she absolutely has a kind heart, very compassionate. She was just a sweet girl and she really care. She did try to do little things when she could if she had time like take out trash, or something like that. It wasn't that she was being lazy. It's just that she had a class she had to go to. I know she was trying to help more than she could have. "
