Avenir Memory Care at Little Rock is my favorite senior community. I like the layout. Their community area was nicer than other places and seemed more open. Their dining area was also really nice. I saw their TV area, gathering rooms, and courtyard, which were all very nice. The staff member that I met was really good.

Brookdale Chenal Heights was very nice. The look of the place was excellent, it was spacious, and clean. They were great and the staff was excellent. They have everything. I met the activities director and they had a lot of activities for the residents. I remember the dining area being really nice. They also had a nice patio that was very pretty. It was a nice community. I liked their rooms and their apartments.

I really liked Woodland Heights. It's very nice. They have an indoor heated saltwater pool, an exercise room, and a professional driver for when you need to get somewhere. It's very near the medical center and the heart hospital. It's probably where I will end up. The staff member who showed me around was very nice, informative, and made me feel very welcome. She did a great job. The dining area is very nice and the people looked like they were very satisfied with their food.

We really liked the apartment at Good Shepherd Community. We also liked the atmosphere, the lady staff member who works there, and it feels like my loved out would be at home there. They have cottages, apartments, and a lot of different things to offer. If the residents dementia increases and their health decreases, they also have a memory care unit which is a plus. They have planned out activities for the month, and they have a newspaper calendar with all the activities in there. They also have transportation to go shopping, to the museum, and things like that, including parties for birthdays. You have the option to cook for yourself if you are in a cottage or apartment. They also provide breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and on some days just breakfast and lunch depending on your meal plan. The whole place is very clean.

My mom moved into Woodland Heights. She seems very happy, and so far, there are no problems. It's very nice, she seemed to be very comfortable and happy with the setting. She plays Bridge twice a week, meets with the ladies in the dining room, and she likes the food a lot. The staff is very nice and very helpful.
The Genworth 2018 Cost of Care study found that assisted living costs in Little Rock average $3,975 a month. This is nearly on par with the U.S. average of $4,000. However, at nearly $1,000 higher than the Arkansas average, Little Rock assisted living facilities are the most expensive in the state.
Assisted living prices can vary significantly, even within the same geographical area. Pine Bluff is not far from Little Rock, but it’s much more affordable at just $2,350. Another central Arkansas city, Hot Springs, is almost as costly at $3,950 per month.

Little Rock seniors may encounter vastly different prices for services, depending on the type of care they need. At the top end, nursing home care costs $5,779 per month for a semiprivate room and $6,692 for a private room. While these numbers may seem high, they’re both significantly lower than the national average. At $3,975 monthly, assisted living facilities are about two-thirds the cost of nursing homes. In-home services are even less expensive at $3,623. Seniors who choose to remain at home should remember to account for additional expenses, such as mortgage payments, utilities, property taxes and meals, when comparing senior living options. These costs are typically included with assisted living and nursing home facilities.

Medicaid is a national program that helps low-income Americans pay for necessary health care services. In Arkansas, Medicaid is called ARMedicaid, and it pays for doctor’s visits, emergency care, hospital stays and other medical services. The state Medicaid plan may pay for long-term care, including assisted living facilities, through its waiver programs.
To receive coverage, Little Rock residents must earn less than the Medicaid income limits:
Assisted Living Bridge Loans
Some seniors only require help paying for assisted living for a short period. This may be the case for seniors who are planning a home sale or waiting for benefits approval. A short-term loan can help bridge these funding gaps.
When seniors are approved for a bridge loan, the money is sent right to the assisted living community. Loan terms of up to 24 months are available, which gives seniors time to arrange a more permanent source of funding.
To apply for a bridge loan, call Elderlife Financial at (888) 228-4500 or complete a quick online application. Applicants should be prepared to explain how they’ll repay the loan, but they don’t need to qualify on their own. Up to six borrowers are allowed per application, and they don’t have to be related.
Veterans Aid and Attendance
Little Rock veterans who receive a basic VA pension may be able to receive additional money from the VA to help pay for assisted living costs. The VA offers a top-up benefit called the Aid and Attendance pension. It’s available to veterans who need another person’s help performing activities of daily living, such as getting dressed, eating or bathing. Veterans can also qualify if they’re confined to bed due to a disability, legally blind or a resident in a nursing home.
Senior veterans who aren’t receiving a VA disability pension can apply for the Aid and Attendance benefit by:
Little Rock is home to seven community centers. Some centers are designated Senior Center Site locations and offer dedicated programming for seniors. All centers offer amenities that seniors may enjoy, including exercise rooms, outdoor swimming pools, computer labs and game rooms. Seniors can contact their closest community center to learn more about its offerings.
The Little Rock area offers many resources for veterans. Eligible seniors can visit either of the area’s VA hospitals for medical care. The Little Rock Vet Center provides referrals to VA benefits and services, as well as individual and marriage counseling. Seniors who have questions about their VA pensions or other benefits can visit the Regional Benefit Office.
