Great choice for my mom!

The homestead is a great match for my mom. The residents are very friendly and welcoming. My mom participates in most of their activities, church services and exercise. They have shuttle service to groceries, restaurants and activities. The park like setting has a walking path all around it, and deer come to frequent the place. Coming from out of state, she didn't know anyone. She's making friends quickly. This is all a great comfort to me.

Please Do Not Bring Your Loved One Here

Where to being? Care plans not followed, excessive call button times, poor food, management not willing to make needed changes to protect and serve residents. Complaints never taken seriously. Unsafe transport with easy stand. This is a not a safe nor caring place for your loved one. Filed many complaints with State of Minnesota and they get fined but continue business as usual.

PLEASE DON'T

If you care for someone please do not let them go to this place. The care was HORRIBLE. The staff was cruel and completely uncaring about the clients. The client food prep floor was so sticky my shoes stuck to the floor. There were no lights in the bathroom and they could not keep track of the clients medication.

Totally awesome.

The facilities, the staff and the food is top notch. Everyone here makes sure that our needs are taken care of. They greet you every day with a smile and a welcoming personality. I have been here for almost 3 months, with no regrets.

Wonderful Care Received

Our mother was in the Homestead Long Term Care unit for 7 months before she passed away. Our family was very grateful for the wonderful nursing care she received, and for the support we received as a family, while we were going through this difficult time.

Homestead Review

We are very happy with the whole place. When we started looking for places, I had three things I most wanted. A laundry room in the apartment, a balcony and two bathrooms. At least two toilets. And with Homestead I got all three items

We have had an overall good experience so far at The Homestead at Anoka. My mother enjoys the many activities that they have on site. Today an old car show in the parking lot and Elvis music at 2:00, then Bingo at 6:30. I can't comment on the food, as I bring my mother frozen homemade meals. My mother is doing more there socially than she did at home. I would recommend The Homestead at Anoka to family and friends.

memory care unit

The place looks very impressive but their care for the patients was horrible! my mother called me at 4 am because she was confused and afraid so I went there to check on her and found the the aide sleeping on a couch. They were under staffed. 2 aides for 20 people was nowhere near enough. I wouldn't recommend them to anybody.

Tour experience

We had a really good tour experience with The Homestead at Anoka. The reason that we did not choose this facility though was because they do not accept elderly waiver. So if your loved one runs out of money, you would have to move them again and we did not want to do that.

I would say to go for it with this community. They have activities that they try to make happen for the residents to still have things to do even with covid.

I would recommend them

We chose The Homestead for my mother in law because it was clean, the staff were professional, and it has tall ceilings with modern décor and beautiful grounds. They also provide different levels of care so if she progresses she would not have to move. I would recommend to others looking.

a nice community

The meals are a little bit of a draw back we were hoping for more, but overall our loved one is enjoying it there. The community is very clean, our loved ones apartment has brand new carpet. The place is nice and close family.

Homestead of Anoka Review.

Each time I have been here , it is obvious how people feel here. They all seem to worship [name removed], who opened this facility many years ago and is the crown jewel in this facility. He is amazing not only to the community , but to the wider Anoka community in which they serve.

Tour of The Homestead

When we toured The Homestead it was very chaotic. There was only one receptionist and she was having to do all the covid screening, they could definitely use another person up at the front to help out. The facility itself was too large for our loved one.

[name removed]gave us a thorough tour. Homestead is having problems with staff shortages. They do not allow residents to stay in apartments if they transition from Independent to Assisted Living. Also residents are not allowed to stay if private funds run out after 2+ years.

Highly recommend

I chose The Homestead because of the location to my daughter and it was the first one I looked at and I fell in love with it. I have the biggest size apartment and it is perfect for what I need. I think everyone here is very friendly, residents and staff and they are helpful as well. I would definitely recommend to others looking.
