Overview of StoneRidge Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Operated by for-profit limited liability company StoneRidge Health & Rehab Center, StoneRidge Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 98-bed skilled nursing facility at 4017 Franklin in College Station, Arkansas. Roughly 4.5 miles from Little Rock, the facility in Pulaski County accepts Medicare and Medicaid, making it accessible to residents funding long-term care. Access for occupants relying on public insurance is also broadened.

A doctor is on staff, and there’s 24-hour staffing. The center offers skilled nursing, rehabilitation services, 24/7 nursing and emergency care, on-site therapy and specialty services, and medical oversight for individuals recuperating from surgery, illness, or those managing complex long-term medical conditions. The facility is near the Arkansas Children’s Hospital and several drug stores within a mile. The College Station location has a walk score of 25, making it modestly walkable, so families must plan for transportation to nearby services.

Administrative continuity matters for daily oversight and regulatory compliance, so families should inquire about interim leadership arrangements since the administrator position is currently vacant. Also flagged is a notable compliance and penalty history in the latest reporting period. Families must review the facility’s current inspection reports on Medicare’s Care Compare tool for the full per-inspection breakdown before deciding. The facility may have undergone a voluntary merger or closure and is possibly operating under a new provider number.

StoneRidge Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is best for individuals needing high-level medical support in a facility near the Little Rock metro area and who qualify for Medicare or Medicaid coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Arkansas

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 nursing home care?

Yes — Arkansas Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 213 nursing homes in Arkansas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
