Does Astoria Senior Living offer memory care?
The DHHS roster lists Astoria Senior Living with both an Alzheimer's unit and a memory care endorsement, which means it represents itself to the state as specializing in care for residents with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia.
Before admission the facility must put its criteria for admission, discharge and transfer in writing, and its direct care staff must stay awake and on hand at all times (175 NAC 4-006.11E). The memory care endorsement is a separate state credential created by LB698 (Neb. Rev. Stat. 71-472) for ALFs that prove enhanced staffing, training, programming and security. Ask Astoria Senior Living for its Alzheimer's special care disclosure, which state law requires. See how Nebraska regulates memory care.
Is Astoria Senior Living certified for the AD Waiver?
The roster marks Astoria Senior Living as certified for the Medicaid Aged and Disabled Waiver, so it can bill the waiver's Supported Residential Living service for eligible residents; the resident still pays room and board from their own income.
Ask whether a waiver apartment is open, what the room-and-board charge is, and what happens if a private-pay resident later spends down and becomes waiver-eligible. See how the AD Waiver pays for assisted living.
Has Nebraska inspected Astoria Senior Living recently?
DHHS makes ALF inspection results viewable only through its LIS license lookup, one facility at a time, so we cannot show Astoria Senior Living's survey history here; ask the facility for its latest survey, which residents are entitled to see.
After licensure, DHHS inspects unannounced: a random sample of up to a quarter of ALFs each year, plus focused inspections after complaints, serious incidents, ownership or service changes, or five years without a visit (175 NAC 4-005.04). Search the DHHS LIS license lookup.

- Ask what the room-and-board charge is for a Medicaid waiver resident and whether one is open now.
- Ask for the written rate schedule and how much notice the facility gives before an increase; Nebraska requires written pricing for all services.
