Blomsterfonden – For a safer and richer life for the elderly

Blomsterfonden is a non-profit association working to ensure that the elderly receive a secure home, professional care, and support with a meaningful daily life.

We operate five senior housing facilities with vibrant social community and our own home care services, as well as four nursing homes where secure care is the focus. Our goal is to give older people a richer life – filled with community, care, and joy in life. Our work is guided by our ethical values: humanity, participation, clarity, and honesty.

The association was founded in 1921 by Alma Hedin. Under her leadership, a special spirit emerged – the Blomsterfonden spirit – which still characterizes our operations today. We carry on Alma's legacy by safeguarding what is at the core of every human life: seeing the individual's capacity, will, and emotional life.

Blomsterfonden also actively works to support relatives. We organize and participate in various forums to spread knowledge about the needs and living situations of the elderly.
