Richmont Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care

620 Fort Crook Road South Memory Care Endorse, Bellevue, NE 68005
Overview of Richmont Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care

Richmont Terrace Assisted Living & Memory Care is on Fort Crook Road South in Bellevue, Nebraska. What sets it apart is range: this one address covers independent living, assisted living, and memory care. A resident can move in while still fairly self-sufficient and step up to more help later, all without packing up for an unfamiliar place. For families thinking a few years ahead, that continuity is worth something.

The community is licensed for 114 beds, and that puts it toward the larger end locally, and bigger buildings usually have more common areas and a fuller activity calendar than a small home can manage. Getting around on foot is another matter. The Walk Score here is 35, or somewhat walkable. You can reach a handful of things nearby by walking, but plan on a car for most trips.

Memory care runs under a state endorsement. In plain terms, the staff on that wing follow rules written specifically for dementia care rather than general assisted living standards. Jo Ann Benak is the administrator. Pets are allowed too, which is no small thing for someone who doesn’t want to give up a companion to make the move.

State oversight of the community has focused on care planning and documentation connected to its license and memory care endorsement. So the case for Richmont Terrace comes down to a few concrete things: three levels of care in one building, a memory care program held to endorsement standards, and a door that stays open to pets.
