Astoria Senior Living Omaha

4.3
Overall our family really likes the friendliness of the staff. They have a lot of patience with her. I don't like that after 6 pm you have to call someone to get in or out. Sometimes, you have to wait a while.

Risen Son Christian Village in Council Bluffs, IA

3.6
We have no problem with the community, they people there are very nice. Our only issues would be the communication regarding our loved one. Sometimes it is hard to get information and updates but we think that could be because of covid. We would definitely recommend this community to others.

Bailey Pointe at Miracle Hills in Omaha, NE

5.0
We've utilized The Waterford for respite stays, and we loved it. We would have put my loved one there long-term except they don't have memory care. Even though the building is old, the people were so nice. The care was great. And the food was good.
