Richmont Terrace in Bellevue, NE, offers Assisted Living designed to manage a wide range of medical and behavioral needs. Staff are trained to redirect residents who wander during the day or night, manage elopement risks, remain attentive to those who stay up all night, and oversee oxygen therapy. The community also provides consistent support for special diets, residents under 60, and all levels of diabetes care—oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. Care teams are equipped to serve people with advanced dementia and other complex cognitive conditions, maintaining a structured environment that minimizes confusion and maximizes safety.
Clinical oversight is reinforced by an RN or LPN on site, a nurse on call 24/7, thorough staff background checks, and a full-time activity director. Safety measures include staffed security around the clock, a fenced rear area, door alarms, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems that link directly to caregivers. Podiatry visits are available on site, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric conditions when appropriate. Full assistance is offered with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff can facilitate transfers that involve walkers, wheelchairs, standby support, or one-person lifts.
Accommodation options include suites that may feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, cable service, and the freedom to paint and decorate. Not every apartment contains each of these elements, so prospective residents should confirm specific layouts during a visit. Rooms are constructed for easy mobility and can be adapted as needs change, allowing residents to age in place with minimal disruption.
Meals are prepared by culinary staff who offer both a set menu and made-to-order items, with snacks available throughout the day. Therapeutic diet modifications—such as low-sugar plans for diabetics or texture changes for swallowing issues—are common practice. For residents who prefer lighter service, the independent living wing includes weekly housekeeping, letting those individuals focus on social and wellness activities rather than chores.
Richmont Terrace provides resident parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation, plus proximity to public transit, supports personal appointments and outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
