Who's up for a happy hour of whiskey and wings? Video travel to the San Juan Islands? How about some spring sling cornhole? These are but a few recent activities enjoyed by residents of the Post Falls Veterans Home. Since the doors were dedicated and opened in November 2022, this 64-bed skilled nursing facility has cared for veterans and the spouse, widow or widower of an eligible veteran. 

"Planning activities is truly a group effort," says Kady Aamot, Activities and Volunteer coordinator. "My team and I meet monthly to brainstorm … we assess each resident to take an in-depth look at their interests and needs. It's very important that we evaluate our program frequently to ensure we are meeting the changing needs and wants."
