Nursing Home Communities in Papillion, NE

"Both my parents are residents here, and my mom had chronic issues with skin breakdown BEFORE she came in. I must say the staff has done an excellent job of keeping her skin in good condition and keeping her well-nourished. The activity program is well-developed. My dad recently went on hospice services, and the facility has been supportive of the additional support staff coming in. Only once in 6 years did the staff fail to notify me that one of my parents had been admitted to the hospital- and when that error was identified, the head nurse filed an incident report and took corrective action immediately. Overall, the facility is clean and well-kept. Staff turnover is a concern, as it is everywhere. I wish they had a day room or activity room, because residents usually hang out around the front desk area or in their rooms. As an occupational therapist, this facility was not my first choice but overall I have been happy with the care they have provided my parents. "

"My dad was at Nebraska Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. The staff was friendly when I visited. The rooms were pretty good. There was a bed, a couple of chairs, and a table. There was a little couch, a TV, and a dormitory size refrigerator in the room. The security and safety seemed to be good. They had cameras at the entrances. I would probably refer this facility to my friends. "

"My mom moved into Hillcrest Health & Rehab and it is very nice. There are a lot of nurses who care for the patients. The place is laid out nicely because there are no stairs anywhere. It's just a flat area. They have gamer rooms, a library, and a snack bar. The staff seems to be good. Right now, my mom is getting physical and occupational therapy four times a day. I haven't had any problems."

"The rooms are nice, as well as the rest of the building, however, there is a foul smell upon entering the building. Due to a scheduling error (so they say) no staff showed up for the overnight shift on Jan 20th, 2024 which left all patients alone for several hours. One of the patients called 911 when she needed help and couldn't get someone to answer her call light. Police had to come to her rescue and when they checked the entire building, they confirmed there was no staff at all in the building that night. Police got EMS workers to come stay with patients until they got ahold of the owner who eventually was able to call staff members to come in around 4:30 am. Due to a shortage of staff, there were many times that my family member put the call light on to get help and had to wait an hour or two for assistance. There were also a few times, nobody ever came to the room yet somehow the call light was turned off, (not by the patient) My family member came to this facility directly from the hospital to receive several weeks of much-needed physical therapy. The Doctor requested and Insurance approved a certain amount of hours of physical and occupational therapy per week. Was given a covid test minutes after arrival and was told it was positive and therefore quarantined to their room for 10 days. A nurse told me that all patients admitted to their facility from the hospital, come there with covid. My family member was not sick, not even a sore throat, yet supposedly came there with covid and could not leave their room nor go to the physical therapy room. I found it very strange that I didn't see a patient out and about in the community areas, library, game room, bistro area, etc... It appeared all patients were always in their room. Due to the staff shortage, it sure makes the mind wonder if all patients are truly testing positive, or is that a way to be able to keep the insurance money coming in without having the proper amount of staff needed to bring patients back and forth from the dining area, physical therapy room, and all other common areas It's easier to maintain a herd of cattle when they're corralled."

"Brookestone Village is close enough where my mother can visit my father. It is adequately staffed, and it looked like you would get the assistance you needed. "

"The Douglas County Health Center is very clean. If I would compare it with other facilities in the area, I think the staff is a lot more caring and knowledgeable. The staff is highly trained to care for patients with Alzheimer's and Dementia. I haven't heard any complaints about the food. There are 4 people to a room. I would recommend this facility to others. "

"I was recently a patient at Montclair for my rehab needs following my hospitalization and loved it. The staff is so friendly and responsive to my needs. No matter where I am in the building everyone says hi with a smile. The facility is always clean and odor free. I would recommend the facility to all my dear family and friends and will definitely return if I ever need therapy in the future. "

"This is a small facility "” offering 12 rooms of assisted living and 20 of skilled nursing. The main street nearby is busy, but the facility itself is on a quieter street, and rather peaceful. There's nothing exciting about the exterior"”a small building that looks like an office building as opposed to being homey. There is an outside area for residents to use, but it's not too appealing. When you enter, there is a nurses' station, but no separate reception area. The whole place is clean and free of odors, but has the look and feel of a "regular nursing home." There are no common areas beyond a separate eating lunchroom and TV room at the end of end hall. There doesn't seem to be an activities director, although the nursing staff organizes occasional ice cream socials. Most residents seem to keep to themselves and the staff doesn't seem to do much to engage them. The food is offered in a variety of styles"”including pureed and fortified, and the staff accommodates requests as much as possible and helps feed those who need assistance. The food generally doesn't look too appetizing, but the residents don't complain about it much. The caregiving staff is a nice group"”certified nursing assistants, medication aides and LPNs. The nursing staff focuses on how to keep the residents safe and healthy"”and they work together and communicate well in this small facility. There is an adequate number of staff to care for the residents. No one complains about giving a helping hand. The best fit for Lindenwood might be someone in need of more longterm care, since there is not a lot of stimulation for those who are able to be more independent. Medicaid is accepted. "

"My father is in St Joseph Villa Nursing & Rehabilitation. It's clean. The staff is kind to the residents. They have good food and a pleasant dining experience. There's also activities that my dad enjoys. They have a lot of employees that have been there for a long time, which is nice because they feel like they're invested in the facility."

"Rose Blumkin Jewish Home is very nice, it's wonderful, and the rooms are really clean and more than adequate. The food is very good, very well made, and they're really concerned with the patient's likes and dislikes. The staff is extremely concerned about each patient and gives them individual attention. They have activities on a daily basis, except on Saturdays, and my husband goes to almost all of them. They have exercise areas for them, we take them outside, my husband is outside a lot, and they have nice places to sit. My husband was there since March. It's expensive, but it's worth it. We're very happy my husband is there, it's the best place for him to be, and he's getting the best care that he can get."

"I think she did marvelously at The Lutheran Home. She went there because she had a problem with her spine and they were able to work with her from that stage until she was able to go to an independent living apartment. I think they didn’t have not enough activities. I also observed that most of the residents really didn’t come out of the building. I was able to eat several times and I thought their food is pretty good. "

"In 2013, I broke my leg, and then I had surgery. I did rehab at the Ambassador in Omaha. I was there for about a month. They were helpful, yes. They helped me do all kinds of things. They helped me dress, eat, shower, go to the bathroom, do some physical therapy, those kinds of things. I had a private room. It was comfortable and came with most of the amenities you might expect -- a TV set, hospital bed, a chair and stuff for visitors. The food was OK. The dining room was a big room with many tables. They had, I believe, tablecloths on the tables. It was clean. The nursing staff was good. One thing was that I could not go outside without someone with me, and I thought that was a little restrictive. "

"We placed my mom there for memory care/long term needs about a year ago. Maple Crest staff is staffed by a very competent and supportive team from admissions, to care planning to those doing the on the ground work. We have family and friends who are social workers in Omaha and Maple Crest came highly recommended and was our first choice. The transition was flawless and handled as well as could be handled for a difficult situation. I feel so lucky that she is in a facility that loves and cares for her. Recent facility upgrades were nice. Options of single and double rooms. The room mate selection on the memory care unit has some thought into matching temperaments. Originally she was in a single and I like her move to the double better for socialization. On the memory care unit there is a 'quiet room' with soft music and lovely visuals that my mom loves. 3 communal areas not including a small out door courtyard. My mom is encouraged to engage in activities in center as much as possible...chapel, singing, Bingo even paper delivery as long as she is able and appropriate to participate. The recreational therapist is excellent. Memory care is difficult anywhere and these guys and gals excel and finding the joy and beauty in the messy. They are responsive to concerns and suggestions. Highly recommend. "
