Mercy Joins Lifepoint To Operate Rehabilitation Hospital In Rogers

Yesterday, Mercy and Lifepoint Rehabilitation announced a joint venture to operate Mercy Rehabilitation Hospital Northwest Arkansas in Rogers — formerly the Rogers Rehabilitation Hospital.

• Moving Out: Before this transformation, Mercy and Lifepoint Rehabilitation managed rehabilitation services at Mercy Hospital Northwest Arkansas in Rogers, with Lifepoint Rehabilitation handling day-to-day operations and services on the hospital's seventh floor.

• Centralized Services: The 4.9-acre inpatient rehabilitation facility at 4313 S. Pleasant Crossing Blvd. features 36 private rooms and a 39,000-square-foot hospital providing intensive nursing, physical, occupational, and speech pathology services for adults recovering from conditions such as stroke, neurological disease, brain or spinal cord injury, and other debilitating illnesses or injuries.

TheatreSquared Kicks Off 2024 With What the Constitution Means To Me

Tony Award nominee and Pulitzer Prize finalist What the Constitution Means to Me will open in TheatreSquared’s Spring Theatre with shows running from Jan 24 to Mar 3.

• Deeply Moving: During its run in New York, The New York Times hailed the show as “not just the best play to open on Broadway this season, but also the most important.” Local director Amy Herzberg described it as “the kind of piece we love at T2, inviting us to laugh — and think — deeply.”

• The Story: As a teenager, Heidi Schreck earned her college tuition and a deep love of the Constitution by winning debate competitions all over the country. All grown-up, she hilariously reimagines how this living document served four generations of women in her family and what it will mean for America’s future.
