Overview of Omaha Nursing and Rehabilitation

Serving the Omaha area for 42 years, Omaha Nursing and Rehabilitation is a 70-bed nursing home and memory care community owned by Malene Davis and administered by Neil Hayhurst in Omaha, Nebraska. Operated by Southside Healthcare, Inc, it typically runs near full, with an 83 percent occupancy rate and residents averaging 135 days of stay. This indicates a mix of shorter rehabilitation stays and longer-term nursing care. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted to give families multiple ways to fund care costs.

Nursing staff provide an average of 2 hours 53 minutes of diligent care per resident day, combining registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, and nurse aide support. The community also offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy, supporting occupants convalescing from surgery, illness, or a hospital stay, plus those receiving ongoing skilled nursing care.

Community state inspections have most often centered on care planning and documentation practices: monitoring resident weight and completing investigations on time, alongside periods when the facility was found to meet full licensure requirements. Families touring the home can ask staff how such areas are monitored every day.
