Countryside Health & Rehab of Newton County

Nestled in the heart of the Arkansas Ozarks, Countryside Health & Rehab of Newton County provides compassionate skilled nursing care to residents and families throughout Newton County and the surrounding hill country. Located at 610 East Court Street in Jasper, the county seat, this facility sits within a small, tight-knit community where staff truly get to know each resident as an individual — not just a patient. Jasper's setting is unlike almost anywhere else in Arkansas. The Buffalo National River, America's first national river, winds through Newton County just miles from the facility, offering families and visitors a breathtaking natural backdrop when they come to spend time with loved ones. The scenic Boxley Valley and the rugged terrain of the Ozark National Forest frame daily life here, lending the community a peaceful, unhurried quality that can be genuinely restorative for those in recovery or long-term care. For families traveling to visit, Jasper's courthouse square provides a handful of local restaurants and shops, and the nearby town of Harrison — approximately 35 miles east on Highway 43 — offers broader shopping at Walmart Supercenter and a variety of dining options along Highway 65. North Arkansas Regional Medical Center in Harrison serves as the primary acute-care hospital for the region, ensuring that residents requiring specialized medical attention have access to a full-service facility with a short transfer window. Countryside Health & Rehab of Newton County operates as a for-profit limited liability company, with a local ownership model that keeps decision-making close to the community it serves. The skilled nursing team provides 24-hour nursing care, rehabilitation services, and post-acute recovery support — meeting each resident where they are and building individualized care plans designed to restore function and promote dignity. For families in Newton County and neighboring Boone, Carroll, and Searcy counties who need skilled nursing placement close to home, Countryside Health & Rehab offers the rare combination of clinical expertise and genuine small-town care in one of Arkansas's most beautiful corners.
