In the fourth quarter of 2023, The Blossoms at White Hall Rehabilitation and Nursing Center stood out as the second largest nursing home in Jefferson County, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Data shows that the nursing center had a total of 120 beds available, four less than the average in Jefferson County as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 83.8 residents during that period.

The Blossoms at White Hall Rehabilitation and Nursing Center had an overall rating of 1 from the CMS, which lags behind the average of 3 recorded for nursing homes in Arkansas.

During the quarter, The Villages of General Baptist Health Care West stood out as the largest nursing home in Jefferson County, with 177 beds available. The Springs of Pine Bluff came in third place, with 103 beds available.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, The Blossoms at White Hall Rehabilitation and Nursing Center has spent a total of $3,250 in one fine and suffered one penalty.

In total, there were two for-profit nursing homes in Jefferson County, Arkansas.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
