Arkansas State Veterans Home At North Little Rock Description
On July 29, 2015, the ceremonial shovels dug in to mark a new beginning for Arkansas State Veterans Home at North Little Rock (ASVH-NLR). Arkansas has proudly opened its first-ever Veterans home, crafted from the ground up to provide long-term care for our brave heroes. ASVH-NLR is a cozy abode consisting of eight distinct dwellings, each providing shelter and comfort to twelve lucky occupants. Every inhabitant will be provided with their own personal space and bathroom. A mere fraction of long-term care facilities nationwide are crafted and managed as cozy abodes. The small home concept strives to create a nurturing, familial atmosphere in an environment that promotes social engagement and detaches from institutional care.Price Comparison

The facility and staff are Amazing!! What a wonderful place for our Veterans! 🇺🇸❤️
They tell u have a job with them and they don't even call u or anything I put my two weeks notice because I got hired on with them I was out of a job for almost a month I just want to say thanks for everything I pass both interviews also being adult and call people back I had to call them and get answers�
my father in law stays here and he LOVES IT! The provide top notch care. The facilities are beautiful and clean and the staff is wonderful.
I'm happy to see this facility open in North Little Rock.
Very good,my brother is happy
Been here multiple times, and I have never had bad service. Great staff and excellent service.
Great place to work, great people for employees and also great Veterans, patients included.
The staff was very limited. The phone wait time was a little over 10 min. But once connected every question was answered in a very helpful manner.
Security is tight here and the facility our nice and clean and the homes our very well put together really giving a place like home ...
It"s a nice place were retired veterans go to live and get the help they need
Housing is clean, private rooms, large common area; sufficient kitchen in each home.
Very nice looking forward to getting old
ASVH is like nothing else available for my Veteran husband, Dan, who's debilitating stroke left him unable to walk and needed more care than I could provide at home. Count yourself very lucky if your loved one gets a bed here. The staff, food, therapy, and environment is incomparable to nursing homes.
My 88-year-old father is at the Arkansas Veterans Home at Ft. Roots in N.Little Rock. The Fort Roots medical facility has suffered a 100+ year lousy reputation but I am here to report this new skilled nursing facility is the best in Arkansas. My families high expectations have been more than met here, we would recommend to anyone who qualifies for veteran benefits.
Beautiful place. My father is well cared for.
