Omaha Senior AdvisorThis part of Omaha runs from the Missouri River and the Old Market west through Downtown, the Medical District around Saddle Creek Road and Midtown into Dundee and Elmwood Park, and south through South Omaha's historic neighborhoods along 24th Street, Q Street and the former stockyards. Nebraska Medicine's Nebraska Medical Center campus anchors the area, with Creighton University's downtown campus close by.
Families here often weigh keeping a parent in an older house near church and family against moving west to newer buildings. Licensed senior care inside these ZIP codes leans toward established nursing homes, several of them taking short-term rehab patients from the nearby hospitals, so assisted living searches usually stretch into central Omaha along Dodge or Center Street.
