    I had my wife in this facility for rehab and wound care. They did an excellent job with her. They got her up and moving very quickly and healed her wound. The rehab staff was excellent and very friendly. The nursing staff was also very friendly and gave good care to my wife. Most of the time they were very prompt with answering the call lights and we had a great experience there. I would recommend this facility for anyone needing rehab.

    A family member was placed in this facility as a last resort, as the other facilities that we wanted him to go to had no beds available. Needless to say the rating they were given by the state and senior care people were far to kind. My family member was place in this facility for what was suppose to be rehab. and wound care. The rehab part was very well and did the best they were able to. The nursing staff and there wound care staff was awful, and on numerous occasions we witness them being down right mean and causing him pain on purpose, as my family member now has to have part of his leg amputated as his wounds ended up with gange green and the dead tissue down to his bones and the pain became unbearable, because of there negelance, he was also considered malnutrition when we the family could not see him like this anymore and the lies they were telling us we wanted him to go to hospital, Instead of calling an ambulance they used their van to transport him to the hospital, dropped him off outside the ER and left, without checking him in and wait for one of his children to show up.. Thank God one his daughter and son in laws were following them so he only had to sit outside by his self for a few minutes before they arrived and had to wheel him inside of the ER and check him in. We do not recommend the place for anyone who loves there family members and want what is suppose to be good quality care. PS they allow you to bring pets in on Sunday's, our dog would not even eat the food they served, he smelt it and walked away… that tell you and us why he was considered malnourished when he was admitted to the hospital.

    I would have to rate LCC of Elkhorn with 1 star. That 1 star is for the few whom I actually felt gave my mother the care she deserved. I spent most of my mom's 76 days at this facility there. I was afraid if I didn't they would not brush her teeth, wash her face, take out her hearing aid, etc. Call lights were on an average of 12 minutes. My mother would wet her pants waiting for help to get to her. The food is not good. I saw on line they have 1 full time cook and 1 part time. This would explain why the food looked unappetizing, tasted poor and was often times delivered to her table cold. 1 full time cook is not able to feed 114 residents. No one bothered to reassess my mother's meds. Found out when she was dismissed that she was on 8 pain pills, still had the pain patch and 1 prescribed pain pill at night that was as needed. My mother had not had pain in over 6 weeks but was still getting all the pain meds. She came home so overmedicated that once we weaned her from the meds, she slowly was becoming her old self. Though I was very vocal in my concerns, I felt as if I was a bother and they rather I not be there. However they do stress the importance of family involvement in their booklet as well as their website. I know she missed a bath on occasion, I know she was not gotten up at night on occasion and therefore was saturated in her own urine in the mornings. I know this because I brought all her clothes to be washed home with me. With no computer system, everything appears written out. The problem is shift 1 could not answer my questions from shift 3 as their claim is "I wasn't there". When my mom caught their gastro flu bug and was vomiting all day, her dinner meal was chili and lettuce salad. Too many concerns to list for this review. I went because they had an open bed when she was released from the hospital. Clear for me to see why there were "open beds". In good conscience, I can not recommend this facility.

    The first reviewer is absolutely correct. The owners and management go to great lengths to put a very pretty PR picture together, all the way from soliciting their own employees to vote for the facility to be Omaha's Best, to hiring inexperienced new grad RN's, just so they can say they have RN's on staff. They have a beautiful property but horrible management .

    Do not let the pretty outside fool you their is a lot of ugly on the inside!!

    This is supposed to be the best home in the area. It may look nice and be clean, but a majority of the staff are unprofessional, lazy and could care less about their patients. They focus on everything but the patient's care and attention. My mother needed to go to the restroom with assistance, they were rarely available. Their solution was to put her in a diaper and put an alarm on her bed so she wouldn't get up. If they would have answered her call, it would not have been an issue. My mom was there 4 months and didn't even know the employees names. When her medication messed up her mind, they abused her. I wouldn't let my worst enemy stay at this place. I beat myself up for putting my mother there for as long as she was. Don't judge a book by its cover. The people make the place.
