The Heritage at Shalimar Gardens sits at 749 East 29th Street in Fremont, Nebraska, and offers a full range of senior living options for people who need help in their daily lives or those living with memory challenges, and there's always someone available around the clock, day or night. Folks living there can choose between private or semi-private rooms, and there's assisted living with caregivers ready any time for help with bathing, dressing, or medications. The community helps people manage diabetic and incontinence care, and keeps up with health checks and medication needs. Specialized memory care comes through the Sunshine Center Special Care Unit, which has its own programs meant to bring purpose and meaning for those with dementia. For folks who need help while recovering from illness or after a stay in the hospital, respite and recovery care offers short-term stays in a home-like setting.
Residents eat together and enjoy meals prepared with good, wholesome ingredients, and the dining team dishes out about 12 gallons of ice cream every week, which many people like. The kitchen staff can also work on nutritional plans to suit special health needs. People who live there have all sorts of ways to stay active and social, whether it's through one of the 82 life enrichment activities each week, taking part in devotional gatherings, or attending exercise classes. The Heritage at Shalimar Gardens also has indoor common areas, a coffee shop, a beauty salon and barber shop, and an outdoor courtyard, so residents aren't stuck in their rooms and can visit together, relax, or get some fresh air.
Pets are part of the community too, and folks can bring their dogs and cats to stay with them. Residents can use transportation options for doctor visits or shopping trips, and every month people travel around 1450 miles in the community's vehicles, which is handy for getting around. The staff helps with regular therapies like speech, occupational, physical, and even aquatic services, and everyone gets a personalized care plan matched to their needs.
The community fosters safety and comfort, with secure spaces for those who need extra care, and plenty of chances for spiritual and social engagement. It's a place where seniors can get help when they need it but also keep their independence, surrounded by staff who aim to show kindness and maintain each person's dignity. The Heritage at Shalimar Gardens keeps regular office hours from 8 AM to 5 PM, but care's always available, and being a pet-friendly place with community spaces, activity areas, and a focus on both health and everyday living makes it a solid choice for many kinds of seniors.
