We interviewed several home health care companies as well as assisted living facilities for my father. We decided on Homestead. They were affordable and local. After a few months into having them care for my 88 year old Father who was in the early stages of dementia, I knew they were definitely a company that fulfilled their promises. Anytime I called, (I live in VA, dad in NC) with issues or concerns I always got ahold of Savanna Johnson. Her calm and concerning voice helped settle me and solved whatever issues there were. They are flexible with the caregivers and schedules. As my dad aged to 89 and he's dementia increased, more care was needed. They helped ease my stress and concerns. When he needed round the clock care they were there. The caregivers that helped him ment alot to me and he enjoyed most of them. But, at the end of his life this March, some even came to visit him in Hospice. He knew them without saying anything. I felt that they really got attached to him. It was a job, but it also became more than that. I'm grateful to Homestead for everything they did for me and my family. I have recommended them to many here in VA and NC that have asked. I definitely made the best decision for my dad.
