I am/was a resident of this facility

I moved into the Retirement Center of Arkansas. It's great, it's one house, I like it, they take care of all my needs, and they treat me good. The employees are great, I get along with them good. I'm in a private room right now because I'm in quarantine. It's an older place, but it's kept up really well. I get three meals a day, and the food is good, it's a good variety.

I visited this facility

I took my dad here to be admitted and we made it about an hour before I could not stand to be in there another second. It was dirty, smelly, sad and scary. The lunch was gross and the people who were to help us with the admission process were rude and annoyed with us being there during lunch time. I simply could not leave my sweet father there alone. Not to be dramatic, but I would not want my worst enemy to be cared for at this facility

This is an older building that is obviously marketed to lower income people. My brother is a vet and his VA covered his bill. The people are nice there, the staff is nice and the food is good. They give him his meds and keep him in touch with the VA. He is happy and safe there.

I visited this facility

Retirement Center of Arkansas didn’t have much parking, and it smelled really bad. You had to share bathrooms and other odd things like that. I did not like it at all.

I've been here in the past and I wouldn't put my mother-in-law here. It used to be the junior high and I've been there to visit. It was just really on the old, drafty side. They've probably made some improvements but it's just too old. They building was old before we moved here and that was in '53.

This is a great facility, I have a love one living in this facility. The staff members are always nice each time I visit. The outside environment is really nice and quiet; when I sit outside with my family member we always enjoy the nice patio area and the view as well. The inside of the facility is really nice with nice decorations. The rooms are really nice and spacious, which includes a large bathroom. My family member always tell me that are satisfied with the facility and they really enjoy living there. Also, …
