“ I, like many Alzheimers spouses, was defeated and brought to my knees by this disease. After seeking much information from medical professionals for myself, I finally realized I had no choice but to admit my kind and wonderful husband to a nursing home. After searching numerous facilities, my daughters and I “hit the jackpot.” The William E. Christoffersen Salt Lake Veterans Home is filled with love, wonderful care and a lot of laughter and joy. Treats are given whenever our Veterans want them and good, healthy meals are provided. All personnel are top notch. The cleaning of the facility is an on-going process. Never have I felt disappointment with the Cleaning Crew, they work so hard and are cleaning all the time. I don’t believe the Activity and Recreation Departments could ever be better; i.e., motorcycle groups entertaining, mini horse visits, canyon bus rides, lunch rides to various restaurants, bus to State Fair, Luau Lunch & Luau Dancers, BBQ’s, painting rocks, woodworking, many games, singers, pianists and exercise. The Veterans are being watched and entertained almost every minute of the day. Speech Therapy is also provided to help my Spouse with his Aphasia disease which is so helpful. The Speech Therapist is so patient and kind to him. The Courtyard is beautiful. It is a peaceful place to have a one-on-one talk with your loved Spouse. I cannot begin to express how professional and kind the Nurses and CNA’s are attending to your loved Veteran. They seem to have eyes in the back of their heads. They are so fast and attentive they get ahead of a problem before it is about to happen! They are so amazing and I am very proud and thankful for them. Did I mention, I now have around thirty Veterans that I love! William E. Christoffersen Salt Lake Veterans Home is indeed the “Best of the Best.” ”
“ The Salt Lake veterans nursing home is the best of the best! Jeff was really helpful with everything that we needed. We were really impressed with all of the staff there. Their recreation department made everything fun and exciting! ”
“ I have witnessed various activities take place at the Salt Lake Veterans Home and I am very impressed with the variety of therapeutic activities that take place there. I have been able see how music, scenic drives, outings to the planetarium, movies, aquarium, fishing and other special events has enriched the lives of the Veterans who live there. I am very impressed with the recreation staff and want to give them a big shout out for all that they do for the residents that live there. Especially, because that part of health care is continually overlooked by those in the health care industry. ”
