Senior Services
St. Joseph's Senior Services begin with compassionate
healthcare professionals who hold advanced degrees in gerontological nursing,
diabetes, cancer, heart disease and skin/ostomy care. St. Joseph's also offers two dedicated senior centers in Hot Springs and Hot Springs Village. Both services are free to seniors age 60 and older and provide nutritious meals and fun events throughout the week. Meals on Wheels services are also available for seniors around the area.

services can issue a referral to St. Joseph's community-based programs such

education, enhance self-care abilities and build strength and function through
rehabilitation services.
