Based in Bryant, Arkansas, Elder Independence Home Care is a non-medical home care agency serving older adults across central Arkansas by providing support directly in their own homes rather than in a residential community. This approach can suit families who want older adults to remain in a familiar environment while receiving assistance.
Services include respite care, licensed nurse and CNA support, and a range of in-home programs such as short-term transitional care, post-surgery assistance, hospital sitter services, disability support, and in-home assessments. These options address both ongoing daily needs and short-term recovery situations, while also offering family support and caregiver respite when needed.
Located about 5.75 miles from Saline Memorial Hospital, the agency maintains proximity to a key medical center in the area. Elder Independence Home Care has also received local recognition, including Best In-Home Care and Best Business in Bryant.
This service is designed for older adults who prefer to age in place with flexible, in-home support rather than move into a residential community.
Clay Ferguson owns, and TXKNC, Inc operates Bailey Creek Health and Rehab, a 115-bed nursing facility on East 42nd Street in Texarkana, Arkansas. The building has been open for 31 years and currently cares for 74 residents, which puts its occupancy level at 64 percent. People stay here for an average of 158 days, a timeline showing that the daily floor routines split attention between short-term therapy recovery and permanent residential care.
The daily routine depends on a 24-hour nursing team that logs an average of 4 hours and 58 minutes of direct, hands-on attention per resident every day. Registered nurses, practical nurses, and assistants use these hours to run clinical treatments alongside specialized physical, occupational, and speech therapy routines. When visiting, keep in mind the neighborhood has a walk score of 65, making it moderately walkable so you can easily handle a few errands on foot, though most trips across town require a car.
State inspectors have previously noted compliance problems at this facility regarding care plan compliance, medication management, environmental maintenance, and infection control. Surveys also flagged issues with general dietary practices and resident privacy rules. Reviewing these older health department logs with the administrator is a direct way to see how the staff handles daily quality control monitoring.
Older adults looking into local care options can check in with the admissions coordinator to look over private room layouts with attached showers or to walk through the standard entry forms. The business office handles stay coverage through traditional Medicare, state Medicaid, or private out-of-pocket funds, and the staff can detail campus features like the enclosed outdoor courtyard with a gazebo, specialized outdoor therapy equipment, and regular group entertainment activities.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Arkansas
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Arkansas?
Assisted living in Arkansas supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Arkansas?
Assisted living in Arkansas is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Arkansas Medicaid cover assisted living?
Arkansas Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Arkansas) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 164 assisted living facilities in Arkansas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Arkansas?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Arkansas, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Arkansas?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
