Transportation to local doctor’s appointments, beauty and barber services, daily activities, and wireless internet are also included. There is respite care for short-term stays. Residents live in private studio rooms or two-room suites, each with a bathroom.

Reviews highlight food quality, a meaningful daily activities program, and a sense that the owners invest in both residents and employees. At 2.38 miles from Arkansas Methodist Medical Center and with a walk score of 69, the Linwood Drive location offers reasonable access to both everyday services and acute care.
