Overview of Emerald Nursing & Rehab Lakeview

Emerald Nursing & Rehab Lakeview sits on the west side of Grand Island, Nebraska, at 1405 West Hwy 34. It’s a car-dependent spot (Walk Score 0). Plan to drive when you visit.

This is a skilled nursing and rehab facility with 95 beds. Right now a little over half are filled, 55 of them, which puts occupancy at 58%. So there’s room. That matters whether you’re looking at a short stay to recover from surgery or a longer arrangement for a parent who needs daily care.

Short-term rehab helps people get back on their feet after an operation, an illness, or an injury. Long-term nursing care covers residents who need steady, ongoing support. A doctor is on staff. Staffing runs around the clock, and therapy happens in-house, so a rehab resident isn’t shuttled out for appointments.

Each resident gets about 3 hours and 23 minutes of total nursing care a day. Nurse aides account for roughly 2 hours and 33 minutes of that, with RN and LPN time added on top. On the day-to-day side, rooms are private, there’s a dining program, and residents have patio space to sit outside.

The facility takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so most families will find a path that works. State inspections have looked at infection prevention, emergency preparedness, and how care is planned and documented.

Staff type
Hours / day / resident
vs 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.
28m
−36% 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.
40m
−7% 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. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
2h 33m
−8% State avg: 2h 46m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.

Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
2m
−25% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day
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.
