Fairbury Assisted Living Facility DBA Cedarwood

Overview of Fairbury Assisted Living Facility DBA Cedarwood

Cedarwood Assisted Living is in Fairbury, Nebraska, at 828 22nd Street. The full name on file is Fairbury Assisted Living Facility DBA Cedarwood. Becky Bruce runs it as administrator.

The area scores a 54 for walkability, which the profile calls moderately walkable. You can run some errands on foot, and there’s a mix of things nearby.

It’s a 65-bed community, and currently 43 people live there, so it sits at about 66% full. That matters if you’re looking now. Open rooms are likely, not a waitlist. A mid-sized building like this tends to give residents both personal attention and room to be social.

There’s rehabilitation and respite care, plus nursing services and staff on-site 24 hours a day. Respite care is the one families often overlook; it’s short-term help, useful after a hospital stay or when a caregiver at home needs a real break. And someone is always awake and available here. An emergency call system runs throughout the building.

Residents exercise, take bus trips, and come together for music, crafts, baking, and holiday parties. There’s a religious service option and even a current-news group for people who like to keep up. The everyday stuff is handled too: three meals a day, weekly housekeeping and linens, scheduled rides, free WiFi and cable, laundry on-site, and heat and air you control in your own unit. Gas and electric come included.

Inspections have focused on care planning and documentation. All in all, what you’re looking at is a mid-sized Nebraska home with steady staffing, genuine availability, and plenty going on week to week.
