Is Ashton Place Health and Rehab a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 4 out of 5 stars overall, above the Arkansas average of 3.5. Inspectors issued 16 citations in the last three years. CMS reports no fines or payment denials in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 3 out of 5; for long-term residents, 5 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.

Paying for care at Ashton Place Health and Rehab: Medicare and Medicaid

Ashton Place Health and Rehab is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare Part A can cover a short skilled-nursing or rehab stay here after a qualifying hospital stay of at least three inpatient days (observation days don't count), for up to 100 days per benefit period. Medicaid can pay for long-term care for residents who meet Arkansas's income and asset rules.
