Beds in use, on average55%Arkansas typical: 72%
Cost of care per resident day$1,095Arkansas typical: $308

Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending June 2025. The cost per day is what care costs the home to provide, not the price you would pay; ask the home for its private-pay rate. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.
