About Pinnacle Place Memory Care

Pinnacle Place Memory Care at Little Rock is a free-standing Memory Care Community in Little Rock. We offer proven expertise, individualized, enriching programming and innovative neighborhood design that elevate the quality of residents' lives. We view aging as a natural process, with life stories to be continued, and believe that what remains is far more important than what is lost. Both you and your family will gain the confidence and compassionate support you need to feel more secure about the future. Pinnacle Place Memory Care at Little Rock opened in June, 2014. We are located at The Ranch in West Little Rock. Our neighborhoods are uniquely designed to meet the needs of those with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. From family-style dining, neighborhood kitchens, a central courtyard, resident focused activities and care, our programming is designed to provide a home-like, supportive environment for our residents and their families. Our Pathways of Purpose program ensures that residents are not just living with dementia, but living life to the fullest. Pinnacle Place understands that our residents seek a sense of purpose and want opportunities to be themselves, spend time with others, have fun, make a difference, find balance and grow. We do this through understanding who our residents were, are and who they want and will continue to be. Pinnacle Place brings together a compassionate team of professionals who are dedicated to person-centered care, providing residents with a high quality of life. Our purpose is to protect, engage and love people with memory loss.

Excellent

I like that it is just memory care and not also assisted living. Staff really cares. I would recommend to others.

Formally Avenir Memory Care

Don’t put your love one here. My mother has not had decent care. She is checked on very little. It is very under staffed. Employees do not stay for any length of time . No one seems to be trained to care for the ones with memory problems. The room itself has no pull cords or buttons of any kind to push incase a patient fell or had problems getting themselves up! The room is clean very seldom. You can ask the same thing for weeks and it still will not be taken care of. Obviously not much communication between staff.

Under staffed

Placing your love ones here formerly known as Avenir Memory Care would be your biggest regret. Looks are very deceiving, the administration will promise you that your love one will receive the care they deserve, it’s all lies

Facility does not communicate with family members

My loved one is at this facility. They do NOT like to communicate with family members. Their current DON does not like talking to family and letting them know how their loved one is doing. Their administrator does NOT answer emails, texts or phone messages from family members. There are always lack of care issues on the weekends even though they will tell you these are resolved. Please don't place your family member here. This was not my choice...

Couldn't Have Asked for A Better Community

My mother in law had since a great respite stay experience here at this community, we are planning on using them again this summer. We knew she was safe, and in good hands at this community. The staff was helpful, and very kind. The community looked great. They offer nice activities, and good meals for the residents. We couldn't have asked for a better community, and I would recommend it.

Better Care

I was not happy with the care that was given to my mom when she was here. They did not have enough help here. They did not have the staff who were trained to help as promised. We had friends that had gone to see my mom and she was still in bed. She had not been taken care of. correctly. I did not like the area that she was in. I do not feel like the staff were trained. I would suggest families consider other options.
