Homewood at Coconut Creek

Homewood at Coconut Creek is nice, it seems newer but the rooms are too small. We were only there one time but we thought it was fine. But it didn't have what we were looking for as far as accommodations.

Staff seemed attentive to outdoor activities of the elderly. Many planned outdoor events as well as shopping services and shuttles. Somewhat child friendly when families visited loved ones.

Overall this assisted living home was great. The staff was friendly and always willing to help. Whenever my grandmother called for help they would be in as soon as they could to take care of her. My grandmother never complained in the three years that she lived in this home. There are many activities that are set up for the people that live their to participate in. My grandmother participated in many and loved them all. They kept the people of the community as active as possible and would go out of their way to help brighten or cheer up the people living there when needed. This is a great facility for the Coconut Creek area and I would recommend this to a friend or even to a relative that may need this type of assisted living. I would not think twice about sending my own mother here, knowing that she would be well taken care of and I would not have to worry if she was being treated right.

The facility itself is well decorated and gives the individuals living there a nice calm feel. The staff at this facility were wonderful, they made everyone feel like they were there relatives. I feel that anyone living at this facility will be comfortable and well entertained. I noticed the nurses here would sometimes go out of their way to keep the spirits of the individuals high. They always made sure the patients were feeling like they were at home. My friend's grandmother talked about how she participated in one of the activities going and how she had so much fun. She even mentioned how the younger nurses made her feel young and happy again. This place is a pretty good living facility and I would recommend it to anyone.

My cousin was twenty three at the time; she was in the last stage of ovarian cancer. It broke my heart to see her in so much pain; she was living in the nursing home and was basically unable to take care of herself. She still remembered me and my parents. She and I were very close when we were children, but had grown apart as we got older. The nurses knew she didn’t have a lot of time left, and they were so attentive to her and upbeat. They always talked to her about going home. I know it was just a way to help keep her spirits up. But it kept her mind off the depression facts of dying so young. She had just gotten married two years before she got sick, so she didn’t have a chance to have children. We visited her for three days before we had to go back home to Illinois . The staff really reached out to us and talked about how we didn’t have to worry about her being taken care of. When we went home it was six months later when she lost her battle with cancer. I am so happy to know she was there in the end because the staff treated her with such dignity.
