The Atrium at Serenity Pointe

The Atrium at Serenity Pointe sits right on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, and every apartment has a lake view, which is something people seem to like along with the way the place looks more like a lodge or resort than a typical assisted living place, and you'll see the big atrium when you walk in, which is a real centerpiece for the community. This is a three-story building with choices of studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom units, each with private bathrooms and kitchenettes that are made for easy use and safety, plus everything is wheelchair accessible, from the showers to the hallways and common spaces, and there's an enclosed courtyard if you want to get some air without wandering too far. The staff is trained and friendly, available around the clock, and they help with things from medication reminders to bathing, dressing, and getting to meals or events, and there are always nurses on site to monitor health, check weights and vitals, and follow any needs that change over time, including care plans that get updated as those needs change. The Atrium at Serenity Pointe does assisted living, memory care for people living with Alzheimer's and dementia (using the DayPulse approach for steadier moods and better sleep), independent living for healthy folks who don't want to worry about maintenance, and there's even skilled nursing and continuing care for more complex needs down the road, so different levels of help are available without having to move somewhere else. It's pet-friendly so you can bring your dog, and there's a dog park and walking paths outside, plus a secure environment inside with staff available all day and night. They give three chef-prepared meals every day, with special diets like low sugar or gluten free, and if you need help eating, someone is there to assist, plus there are several dining rooms and even private areas for special occasions. Housekeeping, laundry, and transportation for medical appointments or shopping are included, and maintenance is taken care of, so you don't have to worry about chores. Activities are scheduled every day, with choices like tai chi, yoga, painting classes, happy hour, boat rides, movie nights, games, library time, art shows in the on-site gallery, and sensory-based events for memory support, so there are options for both quiet hobbies and fun group events. There's also a swimming pool, hot tub, fitness center, full beauty salon and spa, barber shop, movie room, and places to gather outdoors for fresh air or family visits. The facility supports family caregiving and offers long-term care insurance help if needed. Its location near hospitals like CHI St Vincent, NMNC, and Healthstar provides quick access to health care, and being close to the Hot Springs Mall, Bath House Row, and museums makes it easy to get out when you want, with scheduled bus service available. Reviews average 4.7 out of 5, mentioning a friendly, welcoming community and a beautiful setting. The building, meals, activities, and support services are all tailored for older adults, and there's an emphasis on safety, comfort, and keeping life as full as possible for every resident.
