We believe in a family’s right to choose– from a primary care physician to a physical therapist. Residents may keep their current physicians or our team can help them find physicians near the community. Some doctors or nurse practitioners make regular visits to our communities, but a resident is not obligated to use them. We can also provide scheduled transportation for our residents who need a ride to a doctor’s appointment, for an additional fee.

Assisted Living is regulated by the state, not the Federal government. Residents are generally not safe to live independently at home and need some medical assistance. Assisted Living provides three meals a day and apartments generally do not have a stove, although many have a small refrigerator and a microwave. Normal costs to the consumer are room and board and may include additional fees for levels of care. Medical staff is on site 24/7. Medication is administered by qualified staff unless a resident is able to prove they are capable of managing their own medication.

Upon move-in, our care team will assess your current health and review your medical history to see how we can best meet your needs. They will also discuss your preferences as well as your normal routines to develop a care plan that’s tailor made for you. This Individualized Service Plan details your care plan and is regularly updated to meet your evolving needs.

If you have not yet toured one of the campuses, please call 402-423-0000 to speak to Christy and schedule a tour. If you are ready to move-in, you will need to schedule a time for an assessment.

Our Assisted Living communities offer an alert system which includes a pendant necklace or bracelet.

Assisted Living provides residents with ‘assistance’. It is offered for those in need of help with one or more ADL’s (Activities of Daily Living, e.g., bathing, dressing, mobility, eating, medication, and hygiene). Residents may receive as much or little help as they wish since Assisted Living is family, physician, and resident driven. A nurse (RN or LPN) is available around the clock, but not always physically in the building. CNAs and CMAs are staffed 24/7. Payment options are private pay, long term care insurance and some VA benefits.. Assisted Living is regulated by the State and not the Federal Government.

Your monthly charge includes: All meals, housekeeping, laundry, two round trip medical transportations a month, and cable.
