Tabitha is now Eventide. What does that mean for Nebraska?
[Lincoln, NE – 3.25.26] With nearly 200 years of service between them, and after 18 months of affiliation, Tabitha Senior Care and Eventide Senior Living Communities have officially become Eventide, CEO Jon Riewer announced this week.
Tabitha’s communities across Nebraska will now bear the Eventide name.
“While partnerships like this are often viewed through the lens of efficiency and greater use of resources, and while that is one result, this has always been about taking care of the people who live here,” said Riewer. “And we now have 2,000 employees looking after 2,000 residents across Minnesota, North Dakota, and Nebraska. It’s hard to find that kind of personal attention elsewhere, let alone that level of compassion.”
According to Eventide officials, the move enables them to continually enhance care while keeping in place the people who’ve made this organization the senior community Nebraskans trust.
That means residents and families across the state will still see the same caregivers they’ve always known and loved.
The values aren’t changing, either.
The combined nonprofit, faith-based organization is committed to upholding the values that made Tabitha the state’s award-winning senior care expert. And as the two organizations came together, they built a relationship based on shared ideals: Compassion and kindness; integrity and respect; and faith, family, and a philosophy that just might surprise residents and guests: At Eventide, joy doesn’t have an age limit.
As Eventide puts it, it’s a new way to look at getting older. And as one family of senior care, Eventide is bringing that perspective to life. To thousands of lives, in fact.
“We are one culture with one mission, one vision, one set of values,” said Dayna Swenseth, Vice President of Nebraska Operations. “ And Tabitha is alive and well within that. We’ve combined the strengths of two great non-profits without losing the spirit of either.”
