Nursing Care
Nursing care to keep you at your best.
When your loved one needs nursing care and/or rehabilitative services, the Parkway Health Center is available. We are licensed by the Arkansas Office of Long Term Care as a Nursing Facility. We’re able to provide all levels of care: personal care, intermediate care, and nursing care, on a private pay basis.
We provide nursing care with compassion and respect for each resident. Our goal is to help residents reach and maintain their maximum potential by addressing physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual needs. Residents stay with us on a short-term (respite) and long-term basis.
Parkway Health Center provides the finest, most comprehensive professional care and rehabilitative services. Staff members include an administrator, director of nursing, registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, an activities coordinator, and housekeepers.
At regularly scheduled conferences, professionals from different disciplines review each resident and assess progress. The health care team includes a medical director, pharmacist, dietician, therapists, and activities coordinator. Plus, rehabilitative services are also available as prescribed by each resident’s physician, including physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy.
In addition, spiritual guidance and support are also an integral part of Parkway Health Center. Our active chapel committee visits each resident weekly, under the direction of the Parkway Health Center chaplain. Chapel services are held weekly.
A variety of daily activities are planned. Activities vary by type and intensity. Every resident has an opportunity to socialize and have fun. Activities also provide opportunities to work on physical dexterity, memory, and recall. A strong volunteer program enables residents to get one-on-one attention with activities.

Testimonials
Parkway Village has a great staff, lots of good food, plenty of fun activities, and comfortable living. I am so glad I moved here while I am still young enough to enjoy the freedom and security that Parkway Village offers.
Before our father came to the Shell Center, his health condition was rapidly deteriorating. . . Over the past four years his condition stabilized, all of his needs are met on a daily basis, and we know he feels safe and cared for. We are very pleased with the care that the Shell Center has given our father.
Meeting with the administrator, the director of nursing (a nurse practitioner), and one of the two registered nurses on staff; observing a practical nurse making her rounds; and watching the certified nursing aides caring for their patients in a surprisingly immaculate environment were enough to give me a sense of relief that our journey for skilled care had ended. We had come home.
With so many decisions to make in retirement living, it can seem overwhelming, but moving to Parkway Village was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I have so many wonderful friends and neighbors and now that I don't have to worry about keeping up my home, it has given me so much more time to do the things I really enjoy.
I chose to come here only two months after losing my husband. I needed the security of feeling safe while being alone for the first time in my life. Learning home and yard maintenance were provided gave me peace. Most important, though, is having so many caring, gracious, and fun people to mingle with. That was therapeutic and helped me through the grieving process. Parkway Village continues to meet physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs in my life!
Moving to Parkway Village more than 15 years ago was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I no longer have responsibilities that home ownership requires. I, along with my family, am so very thankful that I am living my retirement years in such a wonderful and secure place as Parkway. Parkway Village is the place to retire!
