What if a resident of Southview Heights develops dementia?
Not according to the state roster: Southview Heights is listed with neither an Alzheimer's unit nor a memory care endorsement, so a resident whose dementia leads to wandering or unsafe behavior would usually move to a building that has one.
An ALF without a dementia unit can still serve residents with mild cognitive changes, as long as the resident service agreement covers their needs safely. The nearest licensed ALFs with a memory care endorsement are Aksarben Village Senior Living Community (Omaha, 2.2 mi), The Villa at Crown Pointe (Omaha, 3.2 mi), Cedarhurst of La Vista (La Vista, 4.0 mi).
Can a Medicaid waiver participant live at Southview Heights?
The roster marks Southview Heights 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.
Certification does not guarantee an opening for a waiver resident. Ask how many waiver residents the building serves now, what it charges for room and board, and whether it offers the private room with toilet and sink that the waiver requires. See how the AD Waiver pays for assisted living.
Has Nebraska inspected Southview Heights recently?
No bulk inspection data exists for Nebraska ALFs: results for Southview Heights are on the state's LIS lookup, and the facility must let residents examine its most recent survey.
Because visits after licensure are either random or triggered, Southview Heights's last survey could be recent or several years old. Ask for its date, what was cited, and whether any complaint investigation has happened since. Search the DHHS LIS license lookup.

- Ask how many direct care staff are awake overnight and who gives medications (a nurse or a registered medication aide).
- 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.
