My wife spent 3 weeks here in the skilled nursing facility after the repair of her broken arm. Her care was loving, attentive & personal. There seemed to be personnel attending to her continuously. The staff helped her recover & return to her memory care unit. And each patient has their own tv. We are grateful to all the staff but especially to Victoria, Cristal, Dominic, Alonzo, Carol, Anthony, Natalie & Christopher.

Solheim is an extraordinary place. We've had family members in other nursing homes and assisted living facilities, and Solheim stands out from the others in so many ways! The staff genuinely cares, every question we have is addressed immediately, the facility is clean and beautiful, there are several outdoor patios with gardens and fountains, and the activities are incredibly diverse and interesting. Solheim has exercise classes, concerts, a library, a chapel, fresh flowers throughout the facility, a wellness center with exercise equipment, and a beauty salon. The facility is amazing, and the staff is outstanding!

Recommendation for Solheim Senior Community – Halvorson Memory Care When it came time to find memory care for my auntie, our family was overwhelmed with emotion and uncertainty. This was recommended by my good friend, whose mother is also in Solheim in the skilled nursing unit. From the very beginning, Emily in Sales at Solheim Senior Community made everything feel manageable. She was kind, patient, and knowledgeable, guiding us through each step with clarity. Since my auntie moved into the Halvorson (Memory Care unit), we’ve seen a comfort, emotional well-being and safe environment. The staff there are truly exceptional. They treat her with dignity, engage her in meaningful activities, and always communicate with me in a thoughtful and timely way. Whether it’s helping her with daily routines or simply sitting with her during quiet moments, their care feels deeply personal. One moment that stands out: I visited recently and found out, she was talking in her native language to some of the staff who knew exactly how to bring her joy. It was a glimpse of the vibrant woman we’ve missed—and a reminder of how powerful compassionate care can be. Solheim has given me and our family peace of mind and our auntie a safe, loving environment. I wholeheartedly recommend Solheim Senior Community - Halvorson (Memory Care) to anyone seeking a place where their loved one will be truly seen and cared for.
