There are 7 nursing homes in Little Rock, Arkansas, providing for a population of 214,454 people. We gave this city a city grade of D, which reflects the fact that this city has some bottom end facilities. Surprisingly, this place's city grade narrowly surpassed the city grade of facilities in the local city of Pine Bluff, which received a terrible city grade. We would advise you to tread carefully in either city. We don't have many good things to say about this place's nursing homes, but they did receive surprisingly impressive inspection reports. You can scroll down to find out about this.
While its overall score was terrible, the nursing homes in Little Rock performed well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B for that category, which is one of our higher scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. We also wanted to acknowledge that we awarded this place a C in nursing. In the last two categories, the city earned a C for its long-term care grade and a grade of D in short-term care. Even with an otherwise respectable performance, this place's weak short-term care grade may be concerning for people who need rehabilitation services.
