2 Assisted Living Communities in Washington County, Nebraska

The place is not managed well. Residents often are left sitting in soiled linens. The “CEO” wants one thing, your money. He knows absolutely nothing about elderly care and is obviously pretending to.

My husband and I both loved Roberts. The staff we had were friendly and attentive and would help every possible to make our stay Comfortable. I would recommend Roberts Nursing Center to anyone looking for accommodations.

We toured Sunrise of Roseville, and it was very favorable. My wife liked it a lot, and that was the primary test. The downside is that it is twenty minutes away, whereas I can walk in less than twenty minutes to the other place we visited. The salesman we spoke with, Bryan, was very capable. Then the executive director called me. I asked her tough questions, and she gave me what I thought were candid answers. We did not actually get into the top floor; the third floor is their memory care. We did not go up there; I cannot remember the reason, but it was quite plausible. They said the physical facilities and layout were the same. They described what was different for people in the memory care compared to those who were there for assisted living. When we explained that we were not looking for a place right away, he understood that, and the pressure to make the decision and move in was completely nonexistent, and I appreciated that. There was an outside area that ran from the back, and that would be very nice.

I can\'t say enough about this wonderful facility. After visiting assisted living centers in the Tri-Cities area, as well as into VA and NC, we walked into this facility and new it was \"right\" for my father. The staff is extremely qualified, kind, attentive and caring. My father was initially reluctant to move to an assisted living facility, but he is happy and at home here, and enjoys the luxuries of being pampered by the staff after living alone for years! The facility has been renovated and is lovely. The dining room is like a restaurant, with big windows overlooking the event room, which is flooded with light with a wall of glass windows and many skylights. There are various common sitting areas, and the standard features like an activities room, beauty shop, etc. They have a cozy library - with floor to ceiling dark wood shelves surrounding the room stuffed with books, and leather chairs and game tables with puzzles, games, etc. It is a small facility with 20 assisted living apartments, which gives it a very different feel than the larger facilities we toured. The resident apartments and studio units are some of the largest we saw in touring many facilities. We are so happy to have found Familiy Ministeries Retirement and Assisted Living!

Excellent care of my father in law, 90 yr old Alzheimer Pt, he was taken from Meritus to nursing home for rehab. He was being starved March, April 2020 thru Covid 19. We called Melei owner/mngr of Elisabeth House to go evaluate him, she did! She took him back. In 3 days had him up going to bathrm. walking with asst. In nursing home he was lifted by Hoyer lift from bed to wheelchair etc. She & staff gave him time needed to help him eat, he gained about 25 lb in 6 mos.! Small home professional care, much better for many needs.

It's difficult right now, but the staff at Edgewood Downs is friendly and they have guidelines to make everyone safe. The only ones at the moment that can go in are designated caregivers so it protects the residents. My mother-in-law loves the food. She gets 3 meals a day and 2 snacks delivered to her room, and she doesn't have any complaints about it. The staff has been friendly and more than helpful with mom. She has things she is confused with, like working the coffee pot, but the staff is always there to help her out.

Cedar Crest Alzheimer's Special Care Center was nice, but it was dark, and my mother is a really bright and sunny person. The rooms were fine, and the staff was very nice. They were doing puzzles and things, but they were not as engaged as the other place. They had a little patio.

We love Sandy and her staff. They are awesome with our mother. It was a hard decision to put mom in a care facility, but we are so grateful that we chose Southgate and its memory care unit. 5 stars all the way.
