Omaha’s First LTC Memory Care Cottage

6082 Grand Lodge Ave, Papillion, NE 68133 | (402) 885-7000

Hillcrest Health Services is recognized nationally for innovation and excellence in caring for those with dementia.

Our new Dimensions™ Cottage is a unique option representing the area’s first licensed long-term care dementia program in a cottage home setting. Although the environment feels like assisted living, we are actually licensed for skilled nursing, with 24-hour nurse coverage and the oversight of a geriatric board-certified medical director.

The spacious Dimensions™ Cottage is home for up to 13 elders who are experiencing the dementia journey. Our specialized programming is based on a person-centered approach that focuses on enhancing quality of life by honoring choices and respecting dignity, while also supporting the elders’ loved ones who are navigating this journey.
