Overview of Ridgecrest Health and Rehabilitation

Ridgecrest Health and Rehabilitation runs 152 beds out of its location on E Johnson Ave in Jonesboro, Arkansas, split between 135 units for Medicaid and Medicare residents and 17 for private pay. JBNC, Inc. operates the facility, and Marlisa Thompson serves as administrator. The Walk Score sits at 10, about as car-dependent as it gets. Almost nothing here is a walk away.

Registered nurses spend about 25 minutes per resident daily, LPNs put in 42 minutes, and nurse aides add another 25. Combined, that’s roughly four hours and 27 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day. Ridgecrest takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and it runs a short-term rehab track for people recovering from surgery or illness, sitting alongside its longer-term nursing care.

Physically, the building has a communal dining space, a dedicated activity area, an enclosed outdoor courtyard, and specialized outdoor therapy equipment for residents working on mobility. There’s also a full-service salon on-site. Clinically, physical, occupational, and speech therapy are all available.

State inspections at Ridgecrest have tended to center on four areas: medication management, staffing and staff credentials, housekeeping and upkeep, and fall and injury prevention.

Put together, Ridgecrest presents as a 152-bed nursing home built around a dual track: short-term rehab for people passing through, and steady skilled nursing for residents settling in longer term, backed by dedicated therapy and outdoor recovery space.

Overview of Alma Nursing and Rehab

Alma Nursing and Rehab works out of Alma, AR, delivering hospice care, skilled nursing, and nursing home care.

So, the fit is a resident who needs nursing services or end-of-life care without a second move. The home is licensed for 105 beds. Nursing per resident settles at 4 hours and 52 minutes each day.

Rehabilitation services are named, and a salon saves a trip out for grooming. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay make three payment routes. Debbie George-Fort has the administrator’s post.

Overview of Jamestown Nursing and Rehab

One hundred forty beds is a large count for a building in Rogers, Arkansas. Jamestown Nursing and Rehab offers skilled nursing, respite, and nursing home care. Long-term care is what the nursing home side means.

Licensed nursing runs at every hour, which matters less inside a shift than between them. What happens at four in the morning reaches whoever is there then. Someone recovering alone has nobody to notice when things get bad. Which is why nursing support, short-term rehabilitation, and temporary care are three important reasons people go here.

|A house can stop working before the people in it do. A burst pipe, a renovation, or a move can make respite care necessary. Nursing time here breaks down to 6 hours and 35 minutes for one resident in a day.

There is a courtyard with a gazebo here, and also a garden, plus a salon. Payment is handled through either Medicare, Medicaid, or private funds. Jessica Kramer is the administrator.
