Founded in 1930 by Swedish immigrants, the organization began as The Scandinavian Old People’s Home. A volunteer Board of Directors has overseen operations since the beginning, choosing the first Matron, Nina Swanson, to oversee the building. The original eight residents helped with upkeep. The building was purchased in 1930 from the estate of Colonel Joseph Samuels. A hospital room was added by 1938. In 1961, a modern facility with elevators was dedicated, increasing capacity to 60 guests. The name changed to Scandinavian Home. In 1970, the old building was torn down to build a modern South Wing. In 1992, the Scandinavian Retirement Center, now the assisted living community, was completed.
