We believe our residents deserve the compassionate care we provide to each one. For decades we have recognized the unique challenges of dementia care and ensure the best quality of life for all while providing peace of mind for their families. No one wants to see a loved one suffer from Alzheimer's or other diseases that cause memory loss and dementia.
But at The Independence House, my mom isn't just another patient - she's a person with thoughts and feelings who's treated with the respect she deserves. Making the decision to place a loved one is never easy. I can rest easy knowing my mom is being taken care of when I can't be there. And that is a tremendous gift. If you are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, likely this question is on your mind.
When will it be time to move my loved one into a memory care community? Your loved one may be able to live independently, or with family for quite some.

Our Team
Report
Our Administrative team together combines 30 years of experience with the Independence Houses.
What really matters most is the staff.
The people at the Mandarin House are the most caring and patient people we have ever had the pleasure of knowing.
There are plenty of reassurances, hand holding and hugs to go around.
My lifelong career in nursing in Nebraska has taken me down many paths; from hospital and skilled nursing staff, outpatient and home care, teaching student nurses and staff education to all healthcare disciplines, marketing, administration and business ownership.

When is it Time
Report
If you are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, likely this question is on your mind.
Your loved one may be able to live independently, or with family for quite some time.
But sooner or later, there will come a time when that person requires more care than can be provided by you.
It is important to keep in mind that if you wait too long to admit to a memory facility it may take a longer time for them to adjust to their "New Home."
Once there, you can spend as much time as you like with them but as their 'loved one' rather than their caregiver.
