As I prepare to place my mom in memory care, I wanted a place that felt like family—not an institution—and that’s exactly what I found here. After touring a few memory care facilities, A Home Away From Home immediately stood out. The warmth, compassion, and genuine care shown by the staff gave me a level of peace I hadn’t felt throughout this process. They truly take the time to know each resident, treat them with dignity, and create a comforting, home-like environment. Choosing memory care for a parent is never easy, but A Home Away From Home has made me feel confident that my loved ones will be safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. I feel she’ll be in loving hands, and this gives our family a tremendous peace of mind.

A Home Away From Home is an excellent assisted living and memory care facility that is the best in our area. The nurses and staff are kind and genuinely care for their patients and their families. The facility is very clean and the patients receive lots of one on one attention throughout the day. I highly recommend this facility!

When it became clear that our 95 yr old father could not return home we wanted to find the perfect small memory/assited care unit for him. Home Away From Home was recommended by someone we really trust. We toured the building and worked closely with Rachel Ford and her team. They were amazing. Highly professional! Thanks for being there for us when we needed you.
