Prairie Village Retirement Center in Columbus, NE
4.0

Because my own home would be better, I didn't give 5 stars. The meals are good, the help is helpful and friendly and most everyone calls me by my first name. I'm forgetful and was unable to cook for myself so this is ideal for me and I have 2 family members living within 12 miles so I can get personal help if I need to. When I need assisted living its right here across the street. I also have a sister in assisted living.

A very loving and caring staff. The food was very tasty and well prepared. My wife was only a resident for eleven days but she was treated very well. I would highly recommend this facility.

My father has been in this community for about a month and a half now and he is very happy! He likes being independent, that was the biggest issue for him was being able to come and go when he wants. Also, he can put his tv as loud as he wants. The building is an older structure. If he complains about anything, they fix it or communicate it to me right away. For example, I bought him some sheets and he didn't like them, so the housekeeper lets me know so I could exchange them. The meals are provided.They have sign ups for if he wants to go out, they take him.
