Nursing Home Communities in Malvern, AR

"My mom moved into Quapaw Care and Rehabilitation Center. They've been really good. They are doing a great job. I like their patience with my mother and the way they take care of her and joke with her. They make it an easier experience. The staff members are very nice, friendly, caring, and loving. I've seen the food, and it looks great. The facility is very clean. It's an older building, but it's a very nice facility. There are gardens out there, and it looks like people are growing vegetables and other things, so it's nice."

"My 93 year old mom has been a resident at Belvedere since March 2022. I fell in luv with this facility and employees. She has had the best care. I’m at ease leaving town knowing her needs are met. She was recently placed in the memory center. I can not said enough positive things. She is happy which makes me very happy. If you are looking for a safe, clean environment with lots of love for their patients this facility should be at the top of your list. "

"About 2 years ago a relative of mine was in need of nursing home care after having a fall. This facility was chosen because of the proximity and beds were available. I found the condition to be a little substandard however, or example the flyscreen on the window was torn as if someone had tried to break in. Also the tv remote control was not functioning very well, and the food quality was fairly low, canned vegetables and the like. Also, the smell of urine was quite strong around the east side of the building which suggested lax maintainance and cleaning efforts. The physical therapy however was satisfactory and the nurses were rather pleasant in their demeanor. One interesting feature that i enjoyed was a room with a very large aviary type birdcage that was unusual and considerate. One would be kept waiting however for a very long time for an appointment with one of the staff members. Overall i would look elsewhere if the need arises in the future. "

"Village Spring is very clean and nice with no smell. My father has only been there a week. "

"My mother is now at Alcoa Pines Health and Rehabilitation. It seemed homier, and the rooms were very bright. They have bingo. They have games. They polish their nails one day. They do all kinds of stuff. The staff members are very friendly and nice. The upkeep is excellent. The food smells good. I've been there when they were eating, and it smelled wonderful. They have a salon. They have a wonderful front porch. It looks like an old-timey southern front porch, and I imagine in the summertime, it's nice. They could go and eat outside if they want to. It's homey."

"The facility is airy, roomy bright and cheerful. It is very clean and well kept. The rooms are also large, private , comfortable, cheery and clean. ALL staff are friendly, polite and bend over backwards to be accommodating to patients as well as visitors. The physical and occupational therapy teams are good at their jobs and always willing to update patients and families on progress and plans. The food is impressive .. so delish. The cafeteria is so clean and pleasant with great outside views. There are so many activities to participate in if one so chooses. Guest singers, arts n crafts, bingo, church services etc There is not one negative thing myself, family or Mom ( the patient) can say about this place what a gem of a place. "

"The rooms are smaller, but always clean, the staff are friendly, attentive and responded to my friend's needs w/in a reasonable amount of time, and there were always activities available for all the residents to participate in (if they so desired). There are different options available such as private rooms, a large dining area and a smaller dining area but my friend likes to eat in his room because the larger dining area can get a little noisy, the food is better than hospital food and they serve a variety of entrees. The occasionally have outings for the residents to go out to pizza restaurants together (if they are not restricted due to health concerns). My friend has been living here for 4 (+) years and says he wouldn't want to transfer to any other facilities because he has formed personal bonds with staff, enjoys the company of his fellow residents and is quite content with this facility.

"My dad went to rehab at Amberwood. It was a nice facility as far as look, but I do not care for the people there. I felt like the communication between the employees and the family was very lacking. My dad was in rehab, and they were supposed to have a meeting with the family every two weeks to update us on how well he was doing. They did not set up those meetings. I think I went to one meeting, and he was there three months. Then the biggest issue I had was whenever they said he had progressed to the most he could progress in his rehab, they gave me very, very short notice. I know that your insurance will stop at a certain point too. They tell me on a Friday that he needed to be checked out, and he needed 24-hour care. He lives alone, so when am I going to get that before Monday. In the rehab wing, the rooms are very nice. They are big and you have a room by yourself. They have a nice television, a couch, and a closet for your belongings. Their rooms were very, very nice. The facility was beautiful. My dad did not go very much to the dining area because he was in the rehab area. He had an injury, so he pretty much stayed in his room. They did bring him the food to his room. They have like a big dining area that the nursing home people will go into. They have a very nice gym area for people that were there for rehab (like a rehabilitation area) with all kinds of exercise mats and equipment. They definitely have the nicest one. This was my third one, and they had the nicest facility as far as rehab. He couldn't do a whole lot because he was kind of sick in bed because of his injury, but they had lots of activities. I saw them playing games. They had lots of church services, where a pastor would come on the weekends. They had a beauty salon and a hair place where men get their haircut too. They had a movie night as well. They had one person that was specifically there for activities. They had a good library for people who wanted to read. I tried to put him in assisted living after he left there, and when they called Amberwood they said some ugly things about him. They said he was making comments to some of the nurses. A couple of the other places turned me down because they said they cannot take him in. They made it sound like he was an abuser or a sexual pervert, and that was not true. My dad was a retired policeman. I did have a problem when they were constantly trying to get him to give up his room several times and move over to the nursing home area. I was against that because in the nursing home area you have to share a room. You don't have a room of your own, and you share a room with somebody when you're going to Medicaid or whatever. He was in a lot of pain, and I felt like he needed to be on the rehab part because that was where the gym was. Actually when we first got there, they thought he was going to need nursing home care. They were going to put him in a nursing home, but the hospital had set him up for rehab because they thought he wasn't going to get good enough. Other than that, they are good. They started their day and got out early and did their rehab early."

"Mom was at Sheridan Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center and it was awful. It's an old facility that needs to be updated big time. The rooms were so small, so it was not a good experience. Mostly everybody was nice and they would pretty much tell you what you wanted to hear, but they didn't follow through on what they would do if there were issues when I would call about it (the main people would not follow through with what they said they were going to do). For the money, they charge way too much for what they provide. It was very expensive and not worth it at all. It was double the cost of what my mother is doing right now, and not near as nice and accommodating."

"I toured Good Samaritan Society - Hot Springs Village. It's very pleasant, very peaceful and very clean. Everybody's very friendly and the residents that I talked to were very pleased with everything. I liked it there. The staff who gave the tour was very well informed, very, very friendly, and very accommodating. Anything that we needed wanted to look at was shown to us. I haven't sampled the food, but the dining area was very pleasant and very nice and had nice tables to sit at. I talked to other people about the food, they have more than one choice every day. They have daily activities and they also have opportunities to take you places. They make a Walmart run every week and they also bring you to outside concerts. I'd rate them very high, we looked at two other places and this place seems to stand out the most."

"Great facilities. Very concerned for the residents.. definitely a great place"

"My dad was at Evergreen Living Center at Stagecoach for rehab and I checked out the nursing home part in the last month because I'm thinking he needs nursing home care. The facility was very nice. For rehab, you get a room by yourself, and for the nursing home room, there are two people. The food was very good, and the place was very, very clean. The staff had excellent communication with the family. It was a very quick process to get your paperwork in and all the paperwork done on time. They were very helpful in doing all the paperwork and making it a quicker process than in some places. That's my very first choice, and I may not be able to get there because a lot of beds are single occupied, and I'm afraid that their beds will get full right now because they only have a couple, before I get my Medicaid kicked in. But it's it's a very, very nice place. They have a hair salon to get your hair cut. I can't say I've seen anything exactly, but supposedly they have a podiatrist and an eye doctor that come in, and these are things you don't get in a nursing home. If you need your hearing checked, they have all these people, these doctors that will come there to the facility, which I've really never seen a lot of before. If someone needs dental care, something about the teeth, they will get a dentist to come out. That was a big plus. The dining area was very nice. It had a lot of tables where you ate with somebody, like three or four people around the table. You did have a choice of what you wanted to drink. When my dad was there in rehab, you go in a line like a little small cafeteria line, and they had a little bit of choice in there."
