Does St. Joseph Tower Assisted Living accept Nebraska Medicaid?
The roster marks St. Joseph Tower Assisted 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.
Among the 36 waiver-certified ALFs in the five counties, policies differ: some reserve a few apartments for waiver residents, others convert private-pay residents in place. Ask which approach this building takes. See how the AD Waiver pays for assisted living.
Where are the state inspection results for St. Joseph Tower Assisted Living?

Inspections after the first license are not on a fixed cycle. The rule allows random inspections of up to 25% of ALFs a year and focused visits triggered by complaints, harm to a resident or five years without an inspection (175 NAC 4-005.04). Search the DHHS LIS license lookup.
