Wayne Countryview Care and Rehabilitation

Wayne CountryView Care & Rehabilitation sits at 811 E 14th Street in Wayne, NE, and serves as both an assisted living and health care facility, so you get a place that covers assisted living, skilled nursing care, and a range of rehabilitation services with certified beds for up to 60 people, though they usually care for about 32 residents each day, which helps give it a smaller, quieter feel. The building's managed by Tara Helenthal since July 2018 and is affiliated with The Ensign Group, while the team tries to focus on infection control, nutrition management, and creating a setting where people can regain their strength and mobility, and you'll find a variety of services for folks who need help with daily living, dressing, grooming, bathing, toileting, and even wound or respiratory care. They do have programs for people recovering from joint replacement, surgery, stroke, or needing physical, occupational, or speech therapy, and that's all provided by in-house therapy staff who use both new and hands-on methods, and you'll see they've got activities, art programs, movie nights, cards and games, a chapel, social gatherings, outings around town, plus a well-kept courtyard and gazebo, which people seem to like. There's a library, lounge, and walk-in showers in nicely arranged studio and companion apartments, meals with restaurant-style dining, and special touches like pet-friendly spots, housekeeping, laundry, worship services, and regular transportation. They have qualified dieticians on staff and work to provide nutritious menus, though past inspection reports have shown issues with infection prevention and having enough properly trained food and nutrition staff, with some infection-related deficiencies and federal standard violations to prevent infection spread, so it's fair to say they still handle some challenges while working on these areas. Alzheimer's and dementia care are also available, and the staff builds care and treatment plans tailored for each person, aiming for comfort and recovery. Landscaped grounds help make things feel more like home, and the community welcomes people looking for help as they age.
