Overview of Nye Legacy

Facebook X (Twitter) Instagram LinkedIn

Led by Executive Director Kirk Sweeney, Nye Legacy is a nursing home in Fremont, Nebraska, offering skilled nursing, assisted living, home care, independent living, memory care, and respite care. Located at 3210 N. Clarkson Street, the community provides several levels of care in one location. Residents can receive different services as their needs change. Families can choose from Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay to cover short-term rehabilitation and long-term care.

The 100-bed community has been serving residents for 18 years. Residents stay for an average of 80 days, which is a mix of short-term rehabilitation and longer-term nursing care. Rehabilitation services include short-term rehabilitation, outpatient therapy, and skilled nursing, highlighting the community’s focus on post-acute recovery.

A 90-degree hydrotherapy pool is available on-site for aquatic therapy, which can benefit residents recovering from surgery, an injury, or a hospital stay. Rehabilitation services are Medicare-certified.

Residents receive 24-hour care along with organized social activities. Nursing staff provides an average of about 4 hours and 33 minutes of care per resident daily, including approximately 1 hour of registered nurse care. The home offers a strong level of direct clinical support.

The car-dependent area has a Walk Score of 26, which means errands and outings require a vehicle. Families comparing short-term rehabilitation with long-term nursing care may want to ask how staffing differs between the programs, since both types of care are offered.
