On April 16, 2025, Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders signed Act 636 into law. With this act, all Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facilities (PRTFs) in the state of Arkansas were redefined as a Long-Term Care Facility, effectively immediately, and are now licensed and overseen by the Division of Provider Services and Quality Assurance’s Office of Long-Term Care (OLTC).
In efforts to assist our PRTF facilities and the public to understand these changes, this webpage is being developed to provide information on the transition, changes, and frequently asked questions. Please check back periodically as we begin to update the page. Thank you.
If you have any questions related to PRTFs, please email them to [email protected].
