Echo Hills Assisted Living and Memory Care is on Echo Hills Drive in Omaha, Nebraska. It offers both assisted living and memory care under one roof.
For a family whose parent is starting to show memory changes, that combination is worth a look. It means the level of support can shift without another move. One thing to plan for: this is a car-dependent pocket of Omaha, with a Walk Score of 22, so most errands and visits will mean driving.
The community runs 152 beds in total. Care comes from licensed nurses and CNAs, and staff are on-site around the clock. That overnight coverage is the part that tends to matter most for memory care, when someone needs help at an hour no one planned for.
Each resident carries a personal safety pendant for 24-hour assistance. It is a small thing that answers a real worry: a fall, or a bad moment when no one is in the room. Meals are home-cooked, three a day. Housekeeping and flat linen service come weekly, so no one is managing laundry or tidying on their own. Wireless internet is included, and so are the utilities except phone.
There is a wellness room, a chapel, a theatre, and a coffee shop, plus community rooms families can book for their own gatherings. Regular activities give people a reason to get out of their apartments. Pets are allowed too, which can mean a resident keeps a companion animal through the move.
Mindy Curington administers the community. For pricing, availability, or a tour, the clearest path is to reach Echo Hills directly and sort out the details for your own situation.
