Overview of Ambassador Health of Omaha

Ambassador Health of Omaha is a 146-bed Nursing Home at 1540 North 72nd Street, Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska. Administrated by Jake Bleach and owned by SNF/NF Distinct, the facility is Medicare-certified. Ambassador Health of Omaha is a healthcare facility focused on post-hospital rehabilitation and skilled nursing with extended care, skilled nursing and rehabilitation services, and specialized wound care.

Ambassador serves post-acute rehabilitation and skilled nursing populations. Occupancy is 58 percent, significantly below the Nebraska state average of 70.3 percent, with 85 of 146 beds occupied. Low occupancy suggests market or reputation challenges for a large facility.

CMS quality rating data is not prominently displayed in the public profile. Overall, Health Inspection, Staffing, and Quality Measures ratings are not clearly presented, preventing standard benchmarking against Nebraska averages.

The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Public Health conducted 22 documented inspection visits. The most recent inspection on November 18, 2024 was a renewal inspection. The facility received 95 deficiencies versus the Nebraska average of 52, significantly above average. The inspection report notes the facility met statutory requirements for license renewal. The above-average citation count warrants careful review of compliance status and corrective actions.

Staffing is exceptional in clinical categories but unbalanced. Registered Nurse hours total 2 hours 8 minutes per day, 198 percent above the state average of 43 minutes, representing exceptionally high RN coverage. Licensed Practical Nurse hours total 2 hours 50 minutes per day, 295 percent above the state average of 43 minutes, representing exceptionally high LPN coverage. Certified Nursing Aide hours total 1 hour 47 minutes per day, 36 percent below the state average of 2 hours 46 minutes, below average. Weekend nursing totals 6 hours 8 minutes per day, 70 percent above the state average of 3 hours 37 minutes, exceptionally high. Weekend Registered Nurse hours total 1 hour 48 minutes per day, 272 percent above the state average of 29 minutes, a standout metric with exceptional weekend RN coverage. Physical Therapist hours total 6 minutes per day, 100 percent above the state average of 3 minutes, above average. Staffing profile shows exceptional clinical oversight with outstanding RN and LPN presence, particularly on weekends, offset by below-average CNA support.

Ambassador Health of Omaha operates as a for-profit community. Revenue, profitability, and payroll details are not disclosed. The 146-bed size represents a large facility.

Families should request information on the 95 deficiencies identified at the November 2024 renewal inspection, and the significantly low occupancy rate before placement.

Standout metric LPN / LVN is +276% above state avg
Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 2h 11m per day ▲ 204% State avg: 43m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 2h 42m per day ▲ 276% State avg: 43m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent. 1h 42m per day ▲ 252% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day
