Little Rock Senior AdvisorWho is Little Rock Senior Advisor?
Little Rock Senior Advisor is a free senior care referral and advisory service for families in Little Rock and the six-county central Arkansas metro, built on Arkansas's own bed records and CMS data rather than on what facilities say about themselves.
We publish the rules, the costs and the full licensed roster because a family that understands Level I and Level II and Medicaid's limits asks better questions on a tour. The service itself is a conversation with an advisor who listens to what your parent needs and suggests licensed places worth visiting.
Who pays Little Rock Senior Advisor, and why should you care?
Communities that work with referral services pay us after a family we introduced moves in; families never pay us anything.
Every referral business is tempted to favor the communities that pay it, and we would rather name that than hide it. The directory lists every licensed building in the six counties whether or not it has ever paid anyone, and an advisor will discuss any of them.
What does the directory include, and what does it leave out?
It includes every assisted living and residential care facility in the state's Bed Need Book for the six counties and every CMS-certified nursing home, with the state's levels and bed counts and CMS's ratings.
It leaves out reviews, scores of our own making, aggregator listings and advertising. Where nobody publishes a number, such as a Little Rock-only price, the page says so.
How can families or providers reach Little Rock Senior Advisor?
Call (501) 434-9863, email advisors@littlerocksenioradvisor.com, or answer the short care-match questions on any page and an advisor will follow up.
In an emergency, call 911. To report possible abuse, neglect or exploitation of an older adult in Arkansas, call the Adult Maltreatment Hotline at 1-800-482-8049.
Which part of Arkansas does Little Rock Senior Advisor serve?
The six counties of the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway metropolitan area: Pulaski, Faulkner, Saline, Lonoke, Grant and Perry.
Nearby counties such as Garland, Jefferson and White fall outside the directory, though an advisor can still talk through options there.
Does Little Rock Senior Advisor visit or inspect facilities?
No: we are not an inspection agency, and our directory reflects the state's and CMS's records, not our own visits; the Office of Long Term Care inspects facilities.
Advisors do know the local buildings and hear from families every week, and they will tell you what to look for on a tour and which questions the public record raises.
