My precious grandma lived there with Alzheimer's for many years. She got bruised up multiple times. About 2 years ago it was her inner thighs. And just before her death a month ago, her face kept getting severely bruised from "falling". Her children let you all get away with it. The least I can do is write this to warn anyone considering putting your loved one at the Gassville, AR nursing home (next to Gassville park)...DON'T put them in there with the monsters that abused my grandma. One time I went to visit and had to go find her. I found her in some mans room, a man that seemed very coherent, as my grandma spoke as if he was her husband (my grandpa) I wheeled her back to her room as fast as I could. The only peace I get out of this horrible situation is knowing she is in a far better place now and trusting God when he says you will reap what you sow.

I visited a lady who was under hospice care in the Gassville Nursing Center. Overall the facility seemed pretty good. Residents can bring in their own furniture and furnishings. There was a lending library out in the common sitting area near the nursing station, with lots of paperbacks and other books of all types. There were group activities such as games and music scheduled daily (although unfortunately the lady I visited wasn't able to participate because of her condition). Visitors could eat with the residents for $3 and the food was good. The aides came around frequently to the residents' rooms to refresh ice water and do other caregiving tasks. She got a fairly quick response whenever she used her call button, which she did several times while I was there. The only drawbacks which keep me from giving the top rating were that when the resident I was visiting requested a PRN medication, she had to wait over an hour because the RN was making scheduled rounds at the time. It seemed like they could have used an additional person on staff who was qualified to dispense medications. Also there was a somewhat stale odor to the place, although it may be difficult to find a nursing home that doesn't have that.
