Opened in 2019, Methodist Village Inc. is an assisted living with memory care services that offers a specialized community known as an Alzheimer’s Special Care Unit (ASCU). The ASCU Community serves as a home for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other related dementias who require dedicated care and support.
At Methodist Village Senior Living, the primary goal is to create an environment where moments of joy and happiness thrive. Their dedicated team understands the challenges and complexities that come with memory loss and is equipped with the knowledge and expertise to provide the highest quality of care. This community strives to ensure that each resident receives the support they need, while fostering a sense of purpose and well-being.
Sarah Tisdale serves as the Administrator for Assisted Living and ASCU at Methodist Village. She brings a warm and approachable leadership style, inspired by her hometown of Gentry, Arkansas. Sarah enjoys hiking, camping, and fishing, and her passion for meeting new people and helping others makes her a valued member of the team.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
| Staff type | Hours / day | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 15m per day | ▼ 38% State avg: 24m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 4h 3m per day | ▲ 48% State avg: 2h 44m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 4h 27m per day | ▲ 28% State avg: 3h 29m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 9m per day | ▼ 44% State avg: 16m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
