Covington Court Health and Rehabilitation Center

Covington Court Health and Rehabilitation Center sits at 4500 Old Greenwood Rd in Fort Smith, Arkansas, and is licensed by the AR Board of Long Term Care, and while some folks know it as Northport Health Services of Arkansas, LLC, people also see it as part of a group with Fayetteville Health & Rehab, Springdale Health and Rehabilitation Center, and Paris Health and Rehabilitation Center, but that doesn't change the fact that Mr. Dow Wilson runs things here as Administrator, making sure daily life stays steady and residents get the care they expect. The building runs as a Limited Liability Company, and it gets BBB accreditation with an A+ rating, and although community reviews give it a 3.5 star rating and around a 3.3 out of 5 sentiment, many families still choose to bring their loved ones here because it offers a long list of services for seniors like assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, and even specialized rehabilitation, with treatments such as physical therapy, wound care, occupational therapy, and help for those who need ongoing medical attention. Rooms come as studio, single, two-bedroom, private, and semi-private options, each one made easier with features like washers and dryers, kitchens or kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, housekeeping, and safety features for folks with mobility issues, and all throughout the facility you'll find courtyards, a fitness center, and places like a dining room where people can eat restaurant-style or take meals in their rooms if that's more comfortable for them. Residents get access to daily activities-arts and crafts, educational programs, health and wellness groups-so there's always a chance for socializing and keeping busy, and the building stays safe with sprinklers, handicap accessibility, and even a Pavilion to make visits with loved ones easy and pleasant, all set within clean and pretty common areas. The care team includes professional nurses, certified nurse aides, and therapists, who support folks with bathing, getting dressed, walking, medication, toileting, and more, and medical services stretch to podiatry help and even COVID-19 testing, so those extra worries don't get left out. There's also transportation for residents, laundry, beautician services, as well as Medicaid support, and the facility provides a helpful app available for iPhone and Android where families can find Medicaid info and CDC disease facts, which helps keep everyone in the loop. Residents can choose a range of monthly prices depending on the kind of care and room they need, with amounts running from $2,155 to $6,201 per month, and even though the place doesn't claim to be fancy or the best, it does try to make life comfortable and personal for elders, and the staff works to treat each resident with care, patience, respect, and the kind of warmth people want at this stage of life.
