Overview of Good Samaritan Society – Grand Island Village Good Samaritan Society – Grand Island Village is a senior living community at 4075 Timberline Street in Grand Island, Nebraska. What stands out first is the range of care. One community holds nursing home care, assisted living, independent living, respite care, and skilled nursing. A resident whose needs shift over time can move between them without packing up and starting over somewhere new. The setting is car-dependent, so plan on driving in for visits.
The community is licensed for 67 beds, with one-bedroom and two-bedroom layouts. It is a smaller place. For some families, that is the point. Staff have fewer names to learn.
Recovery care is a real focus here; there are short-term rehab, inpatient and outpatient therapy, respite stays, home health care. Someone coming off surgery or a hospital stay can do their therapy on-site instead of arranging rides to outside appointments. Nursing staff are present around the clock. Total nursing care works out to about 3 hours and 27 minutes per resident each day. Within that, a resident sees roughly 36 minutes of registered nurse time, 25 minutes from a licensed practical nurse, and 2 hours and 45 minutes of nurse aide time.
A chapel anchors regular worship and fellowship. A library, a computer lab, and meeting rooms give people places to read, log on, or gather. Anyone who wants to keep moving has a new indoor walking track and outdoor trails to use. The Village Café is where meals and casual catch-ups happen.
Payment is flexible as the community takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which gives families more than one way to cover the cost of care. For anyone comparing options in the Grand Island area, that combination of layered care and payment routes is worth a close look.
