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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Nebraska

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Nebraska?

Assisted living in Nebraska supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Nebraska?

Assisted living in Nebraska is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Nebraska Medicaid cover assisted living?

Nebraska Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Nebraska) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 171 assisted living facilities in Nebraska. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Nebraska?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Nebraska, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Nebraska?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
