Brookestone Meadows

My grandmother spent the last 9 months of her life here. The staff was always helpful and friendly, and more than able to answer my questions. I'm very happy with the upkeep of the building it was nice, and not at all depressing. The staff that I encountered were all great, including the kitchen staff. It was truly a burden off my mind to know that my grandma was being well taken care of so well.

BSM is the best skilled facility in Nebraska. Every single person truly cares about their residents. They took the time to get to know my mom and adapted to some of her idiosyncrasies :). Everyone was very skillful, detail oriented, and professional. My mom especially enjoyed Justin and the clean fun joking they’d exchange. Not only is the care top-notch, it is extremely clean and inviting. The ice cream and popcorn are certainly a hit as well. I have been a nurse for 37 years, and working in Care Management, I’m quite familiar with all of the facilities. I also have experience with a very dear friend that was in the long term care area and the care he received was also extraordinary. I’m praying my mom can get back here in a few months when she gets her other hip replaced!!

The staff and administrator have helped our family make the best choices for our parents. They have made sure that they have the best quality of life that they deserve.

Here we go again. Woman sitting at front desk has no desire to be here. Doesnt even look up at people when they enter. She was openly irritated when she had to put down her fingernail file and page a nurse for me. Manicure set all laid out on her desk...nice. maybe a nail spa will hire her. Rather than get up shed rather sit there and have her calls unanswered to the nursing stations. Pure laziness and indifference. I have been waiting way too long for her kind of help. Not help!!

The nursing care staff was fantastic. The food was very good. The activities really helped pass the time and I enjoyed meeting other residents. I felt the therapy did not do enough challenging or variety of things to get me better. Mat exercises in supine would have worked me harder than sitting in the chair, even when my Dr. ordered specific exercises to strengthen my leg, they were not followed. Did not work on any dressing skills until I was full weightbearing. Once full weightbearing and know I had to do stairs, instead of trying to do regular stairs to see if I could do them or not, they just had me step up on 1 small height block using my walker. I don't remember practicing getting things out of cupboard or closet even though I would be at home alone during the day. They aske
