Review

Homestead Ridge, a senior living facility, has received mixed reviews from families who have had loved ones stay there. While one review is filled with praise for the staff and facility, another paints a gloomy picture of seniors being parked in front of a TV and a pervasive unpleasant smell.

In the positive review, it is clear that Homestead Ridge left a lasting impression on the family. Despite their loved one's short stay, they felt that the overall experience was wonderful. The staff received high praise for being friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. Additionally, the facility was described as well-kept and clean. This positive experience led them to highly recommend Homestead Ridge.

However, not all experiences at Homestead Ridge were as positive. One reviewer expressed concern about their observations during their visit. They felt that it was alarming to see seniors who appeared "out of it" and parked in front of a television. The gloomy ambiance of the place coupled with an unpleasant smell further added to their disappointment.

On a more personal note, another family chose Homestead Ridge due to its proximity to their own home. They believed that staying close would help them remain connected with friends and family while ensuring comfort for their loved one. This choice seemed to have paid off as they commended the management's excellence in running the community smoothly. Furthermore, they praised both the care services provided by Homestead Ridge and the personalities of both staff and residents.

In summary, Homestead Ridge garnered both positive and negative reviews from families who had experiences there. While some highlighted the friendliness of staff, cleanliness of the facility, and overall positive experience, others were concerned about seniors having limited engagement or recreational activities available to them as observed during their visit. It is worth considering these differing perspectives when considering whether this senior living facility is suitable for your loved one's needs.
