SOUTHRIDGE VILLAGE

High-quality care with the amenities of home

-

Southridge Village is a Level II assisted-living facility that specialize­s in providing a homelike community for senior citizens.

“We allow people to age in place, and we try to make it as much like home as we can,” said Ashley Blankenshi­p, vice president of operations at Southridge Village.

With three locations — Conway, Cabot and Heber Springs — Southridge Village may serve up to 249 senior residents.

Southridge offers all of the comforts of everyday life in one convenient place, including private apartments, full meal service, housekeepi­ng and laundry services, transporta­tion to outside activities and appointmen­ts, a beauty parlor and church services.

For entertainm­ent, residents may choose to participat­e in art classes, pet therapy, visits to the theater, exercise classes and many more activities to keep them young at heart.

Blankenshi­p said that at Southridge, the residents and their families come first. High-quality health care also is a top priority at Southridge. “We have two specialty wings: one for our residents who are in need of a secure wing, and one for more medical and care assistance,” Blankenshi­p said.

The facility also offers medication assistance, incontinen­t care, periodic room checks and a 24-hour pendant alarm system.

“We all want what is best for our loved ones, and at Southridge Village, we care for our residents like a member of our own family,” Blankenshi­p said.

Southridge Village is not just any other assisted-living facility. “Sleep when you like, eat when you like, and play when you like — no set routines to follow. This is our residents’ home, and we want them to enjoy life as they would in their private home,” Blankenshi­p said.
