Overview of Brookridge Cove Rehabilitation and Care Center

Nursing home care and skilled nursing are what Brookridge Cove Rehabilitation and Care Center puts its license behind in Morrilton, AR. Licensed nursing covers every hour of the day, which lets an outpatient service and a residential one share a building. The nursing home side handles the longer term residential need across 134 beds.

Short-term rehabilitation and outpatient services back a temporary stay, and therapy for a non-resident. Respite care handles a caregiver’s travel or recovery, and it lets a family test the place without committing. That suits temporary support rather than permanent placement.

Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay are accepted, and two of those describe coverage while one describes a decision. Each resident is met with 4 hours and 37 minutes of hands-on nursing daily. A physician is on staff, and Michael Tindell administers the community for Morrilton SNF Operations.
