Assisted Living Application

Taking the first step toward senior living should feel simple and reassuring. At Solheim Senior Community, our Assisted Living Application process is clear, supportive, and designed with families in mind. We guide you every step of the way, helping you transition smoothly into a caring and vibrant Eagle Rock community.

A Simple and Supportive Application Process

At Solheim Senior Community, we understand that choosing assisted living is a meaningful decision for both residents and families. That’s why our Assisted Living Application process is designed to be straightforward, transparent, and stress-free. From your first inquiry to move-in day, our team is here to answer questions, explain options, and provide guidance with care and respect.

The process begins with a personal conversation. We take time to learn about your needs, preferences, and goals. Whether you are transitioning from independent living or exploring additional support after a health change, we carefully review how our services align with your situation. Our team will walk you through available floor plans, care options, and pricing structures so you can make a confident decision.

After your tour and consultation, we provide the necessary forms and documentation for the application. The Assisted Living Application includes basic personal information, medical history, and an overview of care needs. This allows us to create a customized care plan that reflects your unique lifestyle and health requirements.

Once your application is reviewed, we coordinate an assessment to ensure the right level of care is in place. Our goal is to provide the support you need while preserving independence and dignity. We also help families prepare for move-in by offering guidance on what to bring and how to make the new space feel like home.

At Solheim, the application process is more than paperwork; it is the beginning of a new chapter. We are committed to making this transition smooth, welcoming, and centered around your comfort and peace of mind.
