Hometown Senior Living - Wedgewood

My mother lived at Wedgewood South for over 6 years. In that time she had so many excellent caregivers that I can't possibly name them all. Many became like a part of her family. My siblings and I are so appreciative of the beautiful place she lived and the great care she received.

I have been employed on and off by Hometown for several years. My capacity is that of a consultant for quality presentation of the homes that Hometown offers. I am a Design Consultant.

With that comes a lot of work in the physical home/s that are being updated or built. Along the way I have met employees, nurses, house managers, residents and have observed first hand the kind of care they offer to their residents & their families. The ownership has always been concerned and diligent about making sure their residents are treated with a compassion and level of care that is far above the norm. The residents are treated with respect & love. The staff is hired with those same principals in mind.

Over the period of times I have been in homes where residents are already living I have been able to observe first hand the type of care that is given. I also know that if an employee is not meeting that same level of care that is expected the management and owners will work with the employee to help them improve. Sometimes that doesn't work out as the owners would like and they have to let an employee go because the care of the residents are the top priority.

I have seen residents overall health improve once they came to live at Hometown. That level of care doesn't come from a company that is not concerned for those that have been interested to them by their families to care for. It DOES come from compassionate, loving, diligent and careful care to not only physical needs but also emotional, spiritual and mental needs!

I have also seen the the owners over several years bring their own children in to help build the relationship and well being of their residents. The children would 'play' with the residents and often built up relationships that improved the overall well being of the residents.

Bottom line, this company not only has the physical needs of the residents at the top of their priorities but also their entire being. Their emotional, mental and spiritual welfare is a core reason for even opening up Hometown. In my opinion they have done an incredible job of just that! There is no way that so many people would have their loved ones in one of Hometowns facilities if they did not live up to what they offer. They often have waiting lists for incoming residents!
