Solva While our Senior Living Advisors will do their very best to match you to the appropriate Community or Service Provider based on your unique needs and preferences, you are under no obligation to select one of those Communities. Solva offers its Retirement Home Search and Senior Living Concierge Program at no cost to seniors and their families. This is made possible through the financial contributions of local senior housing communities, many of whom reimburse us for our services. We will not ask you to reimburse us if you choose not to move to a community or if you choose a residence that does not partner with us.

Hello Peeps! I just want to say how thankful I was to receive a referral about this exceptional organization! The first day that I spoke with Caroline Inman, I knew that I was in very good hands. Caroline is knowledgeable, experienced, intuitive, and exceptionally patient and caring. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone going through the process of searching for a new and forever home, for an elder relative or friend or relative. Thank you Caroline! You will never be forgotten Love, Lissa & Margareta xox

Caroline was fantastic - a lighthouse in a difficult journey. My brother, sister and I had no exposure to this world until our Dad had a rapid decline due to dementia. Caroline was highly recommended to us by a very close friend who works in the senior living industry - so a very unbiased and trusted recommendation. We were not disappointed.

My mother in law had a stroke last August 2020. She was in the hospital for four months with no visitors allowed due to covid. The only thing we knew is she will no longer walk and needed a lot of care. The hospital reccomended we speak with Solva Senior Living to help us find a home for both parents. Caroline Inman helped us find them a place that would accommodate the needs of my mother in law and to be honest there is no way we would have been able to do this without Caroline. Selling and purging their home on top of finding a place for them to live is extremely stressful and on top of that during pandemic. Having Caroline help us find a place relieved a lot of pressure for us. My family highly reccomends Solva Senior Living. Thank you especially to Caroline.

When you start the process of even considering transitioning a loved one to a retirement home... It can be very stressful and hard. I can’t rant and rave enough about Caroline. She was so caring, took very quick action, answered every question with great care and detail and when I asked her personal opinions she gave them honestly. She found the absolute best options and fought for the best prices. If you need help in this life changing process reach out to Caroline. You will be very well taken care of!

I needed a residence for my mother that could accommodate someone suffering from mild dementia/memory loss without putting her in an environment where those around her are at a much more advanced stage. Trying to find the appropriate place was almost impossible by going from website to website, as the chief selling features most residences advertise are completely irrelevant. I am so grateful that Caroline Inman was able to guide me through this very difficult process. She is fully knowledgeable about what different residences offer and was excellent in matching this to my mother's specific needs. Thank you so much, Caroline for finding the very best accommodation for my mother at this very critical time!
