Cathamed takes over Ermgard-von-Solms-Haus: Everything remains good!
On July 1, 2025, the Cathamed nursing service took over the Ermgard von Solms House in Steinfurt-Borghorst. This takeover took place as part of a realignment of the facility, which previously belonged to the UKM Marienhospital. Loud WN The takeover should be very gentle for the residents so that they notice as little of the changes as possible. Dirk Schmedding, the medical director of the Marienhospital, emphasizes that everything has been prepared to ensure a smooth transition. Kai Eickelpasch, the head of the Cathamed nursing service, is optimistic that the change will occur without any major complications.
The Ermgard-von-Solms-Haus currently offers two senior living communities in which a total of twenty older people can live in a family atmosphere. The team consists of experienced nursing staff, carers and housekeeping staff who are there for the residents around the clock, as can be read on the Cathamed website. The main goal here is to enable older people to live a self-determined life.
Modern furnishings for comfortable living
The facility offers a central location in Borghorst and is therefore easily accessible. The barrier-free and senior-friendly design ensures that residents enjoy a pleasant environment. The spacious rooms can be individually designed with your own furniture and have their own bathrooms. The spacious common rooms and the barrier-free garden invite you to enjoy shared activities and take relaxing breaks. The elevator that connects all floors is particularly important to promote mobility for residents.
The Cathamed care offering ranges from activating care – such as cooking together – to basic and treatment care. These measures help seniors maintain their independence while addressing their individual needs.
Advice and services in focus
As can be seen from the information provided by the AOK As can be seen, those in need of care and their relatives can also rely on various resources to find the right facility. These include, among other things, contractually agreed service ranges, nursing focuses as well as prices and co-payments, which can vary depending on the level of care.

Overall, it is clear that the takeover of the Ermgard-von-Solms House by the Cathamed nursing service not only represents a positive change for the facility itself, but can also open up new lifestyle options for the residents. It is to be hoped that everyone involved will benefit from this change.
