Southview Heights is a 70-bed community in Omaha, Nebraska, at 5110 South 49th Street, run by administrator Raymond Quinn. It offers both assisted living and independent living, so a resident who arrives fairly independent can move to more support later without changing addresses. The setting is moderately walkable (Walk Score 59). Some errands are doable on foot, though a car still helps.
Living space here means one- and two-bedroom apartments. 56 of the 70 beds are filled, roughly 80 percent occupancy. That matters in a plain way: there is open space, so a family facing a decision on short notice is not staring at a waitlist.
A full-time registered nurse works on-site, staffing runs around the clock, and a 24-hour emergency call system covers the gaps. For a family trying to guess how a parent’s needs might shift, a steady RN presence is the kind of detail worth weighing.
Southview Heights accepts Medicaid and takes part in the Medicaid Waiver and PACE programs, which can open doors that private pay alone would not. Daily life leans on the basics done well: an activities center, a walk-out patio, housekeeping, utilities folded in.
State inspections over the years have touched the usual areas: medication management, fire-safety systems, staffing and credentials, care planning and recordkeeping. Taken as a whole, Southview Heights reads as a mid-sized community built for people who want independence now with real nursing support waiting when they need it.
