For June's Sandwiching in History tour, Join AHPP at the Presbyterian Village in Little Rock! The tour begins June 2, at noon!
When it opened in 1965, Presbyterian Village was a novel concept in healthcare for the Little Rock area. Rather than focusing on one aspect of senior care, such as independent living or nursing home care, Presbyterian Village was designed to provide progressive care that could evolve with a senior citizen’s changing healthcare needs. In offering multi-level care to the elderly, Presbyterian Village remained the only healthcare facility of its type in the area until the mid-1970s. Due to its importance and associations with the history of healthcare in the Little Rock area, Presbyterian Village was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2020.
