Overview of Cottonwood Villa

Cottonwood Villa provides assisted living in Ainsworth, Nebraska. Residents receive help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while maintaining their own living space, and the 36 bed community suits someone who prefers a setting where staff and residents can get to know each other.

A spa, beauty shop, and patio provide on site options for personal care and outdoor time. With a Walk Score of 51, the area is somewhat walkable, so some errands are possible on foot and a resident may be able to complete select errands independently without driving.
