Schonberger Family

Compassionate, friendly, available for advice and help.

This is a place for anyone to be when they retire. First I was so nervous cause I did not know how my mom was going to react at this place and boy oh boy when i got the phone call on the first day she got there and I was told my mom came in smiling, she participated in their party they told me she was clapping her hands when I came in later that evening she told me she was full from their meals. I felt so happy. This is the place for my mom.

I am very comfortable with my dad living at the New Homestead. I feel that he is safe and very well cared for. The staff is nurturing and caring\r\nThere are a lot of wonderful activities available for my Dad.

I would really say that honestly The Homestead is perfect; it's not the fanciest facility, but the level of care they provide and how much they are willing to work with you really makes up for it. The people working there are great, they make you feel comfortable, and the facility's location is super convenient.

Things have gone very well at The Homestead. We've only been here a few weeks at this point, but so far I would give them high marks across the board. We are entirely satisfied, and would recommend it to others looking into senior living in the area.

Our 100 year old loved one has been at the Homestead for three weeks. She seems very pleased. Everyone is very kind to her and she likes the food. She had been living alone and needed to be where she had some assistance while at the same time being somewhat independent. The Homestead has answered that need, and our family is very pleased.

They're doing a great job at The Homestead. Any time I run into any kind of a problem they're right on top of things and will be right there if anything needs to be fixed. When my loved one was having problems with leg circulation they made sure she had a high quality recliner in her room. They've been very accommodating to any requests or questions that I've had!

They're doing a great job at The Homestead so far, we'd give them high marks across the board. It's a nice looking place, it is clean, and the staff are all very friendly.

My elderly aunt (age 90) while still very sharp mentally (except for some intermittent paranoia) and fiercely independent had been declining physically to the degree that she recently began requiring 24/7 care, a very expensive undertaking. So we started our search for an assisted living facility. After visiting The Homestead we knew our search had ended!!!! My aunt has now moved in on a trail basis for one month. She loves the food (a priority for her), her large private room (beautiful mahogany furniture, two closets, private bath with walk-in shower, flat-screen TV, AC and even a fridge) overlooking a beautiful residential neighborhood and a myriad of activities to keep her busy. I am impressed with the friendly and totally supportive staff and the level of care being provided. From a financial point of view the all inclusive monthly fee is considerably less than other facilities we saw which were in no way comparable to The Homestead. Now I can relax knowing that my aunt will be safe, comfortable and happy.

The Homestead has a lot going for it, although the care they provide is more appropriate for those on the lower end of the care spectrum. My loved one has been very well cared for here! The facility has everything you could as for! There is an on site doctor, a psychiatrist, the aides are always present and available, and she even has a (fantastic!) case manager here. They are also able to provide any needed medication. which can be billed separately for insurance reasons if necessary. One aspect of their service that I really appreciate was they put a lot of thought into the pairings for their shared rooms. They are very cognizant of the personalities of their residents, and try very hard to match up people who will work well as roommates.

My mother has been a resident for over 5 years now. I live abroad and they make it easy for me to make sure my mom is taken care of. They have honestly gone above and beyond during this Covid crisis. The owner [name removed] helped me advocate and come up with solutions to help her get discharged from the rehabilitation centre after recovering from Covid. It was nearly impossible to get someone in to talk to them with all the regulations. The staff at The Homestead are all lovely..Celeste the case manager is very caring and very honest. It’s clean, bright, friendly and they will try to help in any way.

It's been wonderful so far. We have no complaints at all. The meals are a little on the small side, but that's okay, they are good. We are very happy with them. I would give them a four and a half out of five.

Place is great but you have to pay extra for services.

I was initially overwhelmed by all of the phone calls from different assisted living places. We looked at several and decided on the Nautilus Hotel because it was close to where we live and it seemed like the best fit. After two weeks of living there, my brother-in-law is very happy. The food is very good and he likes all of the programs. Everything is very clean although the lobby area could use a facelift. The staff is excellent!

This is a lovely residence. The staff are very caring and engaged with the residents. Many activities and flexible approach to supporting residents with their interests. They take those interested on field trips. My dad recently went to a Mets' game and had a great time. They really seem to go the extra mile. Also, they treat the residents with respect, not in patronizing manner.

Over all the staff at Homestead are very attentive to the patients. They joke around and check in on patients often. the staff is very accommodating, quick to clean up patients. Not one experienced with staff having bad attitudes. Our biggest gripe with Homestead is the facility is old very, very old. It is in need of multiple renovations, a complete gut job. The rugs are horrendous and reak of urine. The window are old. Also wheelchair patients cannot use the front door because of the stairs and must wait to be let in thru the locked side gate. Which limits the patient from going in or out freely. The sitting room chairs need to be completely thrown out, they are filthy. One honorable mention is my relative was hospitalized 3 weeks and was very worried about the items in his unlocked room. When he returned everything was still in it's place. So i would think the staff is trustworthy. So would i recommend, yes, i would recommend but i'd suggest getting your own room.

My loved one was a resident at The Homestead. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this facility to others. The facility needs an upgrade.

I think overall it's a good facility. It's certainly one of the better ones for the price that we visited. However, in the two years or so we've been there, I haven't been able to be inside that often due to Covid. THe lobby is now run down. It seems like it needs a little more care and attention. I don't think that they're I think they're doing as best as they can. My loved one can be very difficult. But I feel like they need to be much more hands on in making sure laundry gets done and making sure the room gets cleaned. I 'm sure my loved one says nonono and sends them away, but they need ot a little more involved. The staff are so nice. They're very freindly whenever I call or am able to come by. I find them to be very attentive. Everything has been harder since I haven't been able to go in before Covid. I found it was easier to help facilitate getting things done because my loved one trusts me and would allow them to help her more with me around.

We were pretty pleased with our experience here. They did a good job with keeping the community clean and the room where my aunt was was always very clean. The staff was pretty good. Every time I visited, I saw them doing everything they needed to do and they were very cooperative. Every time I called I had no problems with the staff. No complaints whatsoever. The price was very competitive compared to other communities in the area. Great location as well.

Staff nice. Plenty of rooms for residents to meet up, watch TV, read etc. There is a library room. Out door seating in summer. Big dining room. Nice looking meal plan. It is carpeted throughout. Shared rooms are not large but adequate with showers/bath/toilet, tv, dresser and a closet.
