I would recommend the Brookdale Fort Smith community. The people there are very caring. My mom seems happy. My mom is in one of the larger rooms. I was looking for more care and 24/7 nurse availability and Brookdale Fort Smith has that.

My loved one likes the food. It would be helpful for the staff to assist in placing the residents together for meals to communicate with each other. The community has lots of activities for the residents to participate in. I would live there if I could.

Heritage Grove at Tahlequah Assisted Living

At Heritage, they had full nursing capability at all times. It is a smaller, older facility with very caring staff. They have trained nurses on site who can provide basic care reducing the number of hospital visits required.
