More about Jonesboro Center for Nursing and Healing
Families on the site talk about staff who treat a parent like family and therapy that hands independence back. If you are an LPN or RN, public postings list a $5,000 sign-on and an estimated range around $24–$32.75 an hour, with the employer calling out a competitive wage scale and shift differentials. There is also an RN Supervisor line (7A–7P, every other weekend) where you lead LPNs and CNAs and help the DON side with staffing, orientation, and care plans. Benefits called out on the careers page include medical, dental, vision, CAREBucks, and appreciation events. Growth language on the careers page is plain: fair wages for expertise and continuous learning from CNA level up through leadership. One hard number to hold beside the warmth is staffing—CMS shows a 2-star staffing rating, light RN hours per resident, and turnover near the mid-50s overall and about 60% for RNs—so you will want to ask how the floor is actually covered on your shift.
Feel-at-home nursing and rehab with a push to return patients home; professional growth and continuous learning called out from CNAs through leadership; collaborative, appreciative culture on the careers page.
Why nurses stay
How they describe the culture
What nurses say in reviews
CMS star mix on file: health inspection 4.0, quality measures 3.0, long-stay QM 4.0, staffing 2.0; not a Special Focus Facility. Website and social notes praise family-like care and name staff Healing Heroes; formal nurse review counts are not in the validated set.
The good
- $5,000 sign-on bonus posted for LPN/RN roles
- Estimated $24–$32.75/hr range with shift differentials emphasized
- RN Supervisor path with real charge over LPNs/CNAs and QI/care-plan work
- Medical, dental, vision, CAREBucks, and appreciation events listed
- Rehab-forward, return-home philosophy and family-like care testimonials
- Gold Joint Commission recognition displayed on the website
The hard parts
- CMS staffing rating is 2.0 stars with only ~0.23 RN HPRD
- Total staff turnover about 54.8% and RN turnover about 60%
- Public CMS rollup lists health deficiencies and a small penalty history
- Base wage is a ZipRecruiter estimate—employer has not published an exact scale in the facts
“I came for the sign-on bonus. I stayed because on my hardest night, my whole team stayed with me.”
