Homestead Village is praised by many for its beautiful campus, active life enrichment programs, and a staff that feels like family during transitions in care. However, serious allegations regarding financial transparency and neglect in nursing care must be carefully investigated. While some residents enjoy the amenities and maintenance, others have reported significant issues with renovation disruptions and communication failures during end-of-life care.

Key Review Excerpts
“The Homestead team jumped into action (on a Friday afternoon and through the weekend) to accommodate my parents. Almost 12 weeks later we have tested every department, facility and person in the community. Each has demonstrated incredible and concern for my folks and our family.”
“When bad winter weather hits, Jim and I freshly appreciate our decision to move to Homestead Village. Driveways and sidewalks are efficiently cleared and treated after a snowfall – one of many benefits that make us feel comfortable and secure in our home here.”
“Great place that took care of my nana in her final days. Staff is kind.”
