PositiveThe Homesteads is great. The Homesteads is truly a 'family' atmosphere and Dad is doing much better there than in a traditional nursing home setting.

PositiveThree years ago when it became apparent that my mother could no longer live alone, I started a search for placement for her. The Homesteads immediately came up. After extensive research, I called and met with [removed], the owner. She is a warm and caring woman who, because of 25 years of experience, knew exactly what my family and I were going through.
