24/7 Safety, Care, and Clinical Support
Residents receive around-the-clock supervision, medication management, and support with daily activities.
Care is delivered with patience and respect, adapting to each resident’s abilities and responding to behaviors with understanding rather than correction.
Solheim’s Memory Care includes:
-
Residents are supported around the clock by experienced nursing staff who understand the unique needs of individuals living with memory loss. This constant presence provides immediate assistance when needed and helps families feel confident their loved one is always cared for.
-
Care plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted to match each resident’s changing needs. As memory conditions progress, the level of support evolves as well, ensuring continuity, comfort, and the right care at every stage.
-
Residents have priority access to a highly rated skilled nursing facility if more advanced medical care becomes necessary. This provides a seamless transition without the stress of relocating to an unfamiliar environment.
-
The care team works closely with physicians, specialists, and healthcare providers to ensure every aspect of a resident’s health is managed with consistency and attention. This coordination helps prevent gaps in care and supports better overall outcomes.
Thoughtfully Designed Daily Life
More than activities — moments that matter.
Daily life is designed to support each resident’s abilities and create natural opportunities for connection and engagement.
Residents enjoy:
Sensory and therapeutic activities
Music, movement, and creative expression
Social connection and shared experiences within the community
Time outdoors in safe, welcoming spaces
Each day is structured to reduce anxiety and help residents feel calm, connected, and at home.
