"I attended the Primrose Retirement Community of Grand Island for my great grandmother 96th birthday party and my overall experience was one that consisted of mostly positive things. The facilities were very nice and up-to-date. They allowed us sufficient room for the party and the chairs and table were already set up. We brought in the birthday cake and drinks, they did not provide them. Many people attending and it was a very nice birthday party. My only complaint was that there was a lack of staff involvement during and after the party. For example, they didn't help serve, clean-up or do the little things like show people where the restrooms were. The party lasted well over 4 hours and the staff was not trying to push us out as it got close to dinner time, like most retirement communities would. Great job Primrose I will definitely come back and visit if I get the chance. "

"We chose The Heritage at Sagewood because they have rooms available that my parents could be together again. It was a newer community. The facilities were just awesome. The director and the care coordinator were very helpful in getting them situated and helping get this in place very quickly. My parents moved into the assisted living apartment. They love the food. I would describe the facility as very much feeling like a home. The attendants in nursing care there are very good. The facility is very clean and very current with its decorating. All around it has been very satisfactory to my parents."

"We ended up getting my grandmother to move into Tiffany Square Care Center. She needed complete skilled care. We were limited on what we needed to do, and we knew that it was more pricey, too, but it was the best thing for her at the time with this COVID. The staff has been great. They're very helpful. The layout is really nice. It's easy access off the road. It looks like it's well taken care of. To me, it's pretty pricey. However, they have very personable people, the place is clean, and they have good staff in their different fields from physical therapy to skilled care. That part, I think, it's just phenomenal. The only part I can complain about right now is just the COVID, so we can't be in there. It's just tough, not just for me and for my grandmother, but for everyone."

"Edgewood Vista in Grand Island provides excellent care to their residents. Their residents are alzheimer or dementia patients. Caring for someone with dementia takes a lot of heart, kindness, patience, etc. I admire every employee at Edgewood. The care they have given my father for more than two years now has been excellent. They also always treat me very very nicely and have been a help to me emotionally.. Edegewood is an excellent care facility."

"We toured Good Samaritan Society - Grand Island Village. It was a very nice tour. It was great, but it was pretty pricey. The staff who gave me the tour were very good. They were great. It was all great, but the price. They have duplexes, and they were wonderful. They're new and very nice. It's one floor, and it had everything you need. They take care of all the outside maintenance. We would have to pay for the internet, but it had a TV. All of the utilities are covered except for the phone. They also have a scheduled bus, so you could go places on the bus. At the main building, they have some activities such as a church service, cards, games, puzzles, and that sort of thing."

"We are choosing Tabitha at Prairie Commons for my mother. I just was impressed with the people that were working there and the care that they could provide. I was also impressed with all of the facilities that she would have. The rooms were very nice. There were several different sizes. I think there are three sizes for each room. They've got a washer/dryer, and all the appliances - stove, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. It was just very convenient. They brought a plate to my mom's home for her to try the food, and she said that it was very good. I'm a little burned out because of the delay in the opening. They haven't got a date yet to open, and it's been kind of tough."

"Riverside Lodge is wonderful. The apartments are big, the people are friendly, and the staff is marvelous. It is a great place. The food is excellent. They have musical programs and speakers. "

"Cottonwood Estates is a better deal. It is really homey and they have very nice people. It is a nice place and it is about ten years old. They have good meals, too. I have eaten there before. The food was a good family meal."

"When I had to find a place for my husband to live, it was a very hard decision to make. I had taken care of him four years at home, but was becoming totally exhausted. I looked at my options but was somewhat limited in choices because of needing medicaid help to pay for it. Good Samaritan Home in Wood River met my needs in so many ways. The staff is always happy, greets me by name, treats Gary with dignity. It is clean and pleasant from the very first step inside. I have no sense of smell but a friend who visited said that it did not smell! I watch how they treat their residents and it is great. They are family!! Hard choices sometimes bring regrets, but not for me. I love Good Sam!! "
