Description of QALICB
Poplar Grove is a Green House® Skilled Nursing Center on a 13-acre tract of land located in Little Rock, Arkansas. In partnership with The Green House Project, a nationally recognized leader in transformative, post-acute care for seniors, this progressive nursing home seeks to reinvent nursing home care by creating a home-like environment that maximizes the quality of life for up to 120 elders in the greater Little Rock area. The project consisted of 12 care "cottages" and an administrative building.
Community Benefits
This nursing home will provide care to elders regardless of their payer classification and provides higher than average long-term care wages and advanced educational training to employees in this impoverished area of Little Rock. The project will create over 248 construction related jobs and over 100 permanent full time jobs. Once completed it will significantly advance the standard of life and care for countless elders in central Arkansas and advance the person-centered care model of care in the United States.
