Mostly short-term rehab stays
Most residents typically stay for a few weeks or months before returning home or moving on.
Most new residents arrive under Medicare (69% of admissions), and a typical Medicare stay runs around 1 - 2 months.
Mike Ecklun owns Holdrege Memorial Homes, a 45-bed nursing facility located on 11th Avenue in Holdrege, Nebraska. The office takes care of billing through standard choices like Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. If you want to check out the immediate area, the neighborhood has a walkability score of 45 out of 100, which means visiting family members can run a few basic errands on foot, though a car is still helpful for most trips.
Residents live here for an average of 396 days, meaning the facility focuses mostly on long-term residential care alongside short-term post-hospital rehab. The building stays busy and regularly fills its available beds. To look after daily medical needs, the nursing team provides an average of 3 hours of total care per resident each day, with a registered nurse and an on-staff doctor managing the daily health schedules.
State health department logs show the facility has a clean regulatory track record. Recent inspections came back with zero deficiencies, and all past complaint investigations were found to be unsubstantiated, which keeps its cumulative citations-per-inspection rate at zero.
Prospective residents can access specialized physical and occupational therapy, temporary respite care, and a local Meals on Wheels program. The campus features an on-site library, a beauty shop, regular religious services, and local medical transportation. Daily life combines three hot meals cooked on-site with scheduled recreational activities, laundry help, room cleaning, and open visiting hours for family members.
Holdrege Memorial Homes, Inc is administered by Administrator Kevin Moriarty.
In Nebraska, the Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Public Health conducts regular inspections to ensure nursing and assisted living facilities meet state and federal standards.
