PositiveI visited this facility
Everything at Golden Years Homestead was positive. Everything was in one building. It included everything my mom would need as far as the utilities, food, and nurses on duty. One of the main things that we liked about this particular facility was that they also had a nursing home, and that's kind of one of her priorities. Once she does move, she has nursing home access if needed. And at Golden Years, you're a priority at the nursing home. So, that is very important to us. There was transportation availabl…

Golden Years Homestead was nice. The staff was really nice. It's a very clean place. The rooms were clean, and they had big bathrooms. My mom was there for a while. She liked the food there, and they had a nice variety. The place was nice in size and very modern looking. They had a big recreation area. The nursing staff was nice. They made sure mom got everything, and they took care of her. Because of Covid, it was kind of still locked down to a point. They're very caring people. The staff was good.

We toured Golden Years Homestead. It was excellent. The staff was very helpful and very informative. They were ready to accommodate whatever we needed. They offer meals, they have a lady who runs a barbershop/beauty-salon-type thing, and they have activities and trips. It's very nice.

The assisted living apartments of Golden Years were very nice. They furnished the appliances, but you need to provide the furniture. They had an exercise room, a library, and a chapel.

The facility has a very structured schedule that accommodated her needs as well as the needs of our family. During this time we had additional staff that we hired to come in and care for my sister also. The staff was very accepting to this but never neglected their own duties. They provided daily entertainment such as crafts, games, movies and etc. Meals were made accord…
