Indian Rock Village

265 Dave Creek Pkwy, Fairfield Bay, AR 72088
Overview of Indian Rock Village

Indian Rock Village is located at 265 Dave Creek Pkwy in Fairfield Bay, Arkansas. It is a three-story complex that integrates nursing home, assisted living, and independent living care. They offer private rooms, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services, while accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

Data suggests an average length of stay of 142 days, which indicates this population is less transient than a short-term rehab setting. Current occupancy sits at 65.5%.

Looking at the staffing metrics, they provide 4 hours and 34 minutes of nursing coverage per resident daily. The breakdown is 44 minutes of RN time, 39 minutes of LPN time, and 2 hours and 18 minutes of nurse aide time. That RN allocation is actually quite significant for a facility in a rural Arkansas setting.

While the facility mentions activities like fitness opportunities and social gatherings, it lacks specifics on the execution of these programs. Regulatory inspections have touched on standard operational domains such as infection control, documentation, dietary services, and environmental safety.

The location has a Walk Score of 11, which is expected for Fairfield Bay, a rural lakeside environment where a car is functionally mandatory for off-campus transit. For those in Van Buren County evaluating multi-level care with a focus on long-term residency and a robust RN presence, Indian Rock Village offers a versatile solution with broad payment acceptance.
