Idaho Opens Latest Veterans Senior Care Facility

The 64-bed nursing facility first broke ground in late 2020.

By HFT Staff


The newest Idaho State Veterans Home has opened. The Post Falls Veterans Home is a 64-bed skilled nursing facility that has a centralized community center, chapel, therapy room, dining room, sports bar with big screen televisions, multiple common areas and a canteen. The facility also includes a common food preparation area, a laundry facility, maintenance supply areas, a covered pickup and drop-off area and parking for 90 vehicles. 

Idaho Division of Veterans Services broke ground and began site work on the veterans home in late 2020. Full-time construction commenced in April 2021, and a publicly attended topping out ceremony was held in August 2021 when the final steel beam of the frame was hoisted into place. 

Two state veteran service officers from the Office of Veterans Advocacy will also have offices in the building.
