Directors & Staff
Rhonda Halterman
Rhonda established LivWell Seniors in 2012 after experiencing the difficulties and stress that comes with having to identify and select appropriate eldercare solutions for a loved one. As she navigated through the myriad of unexpected challenges, questions, and potential options, Rhonda recognized the need for a knowledgeable and trusted advocate. Rhonda and her team have over 40 years of industry experience, helping hundreds of families identify the right options for their unique circumstances. “My greatest joy comes when those families I have assisted express to me that I gave them a renewed sense of hope and the guidance they really needed to get through this journey. I strive to ensure that EVERY family I assist feels my genuine desire to help them find the appropriate senior living solution.”
