Health & Wellness Philosophy

Homestead Village is committed to leading the charge on personal wellness by empowering residents to be in control of the choices they make, while also supporting others through their own journeys.

The final line of Homestead Village’s purpose statement emphasizes our community’s commitment to complete wellness.
Wellness is the focus of all that we do. It starts with our healthy dining options. All items are made from scratch and feature foods cooked in healthy fats, including butter, olive oil and avocado oil. Margarine and seed oils are banned and even our fryers utilize tallow in place of seed oils. All salad dressings are made from scratch. Gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan and keto options are available at every meal. Such a philosophy is apparent at the recently updated dining venue that is home to Luna Fine Dining, the Solis Café and Mack’s Coffee Shop, where healthy options are a part of every menu.

Exercise is a major aspect of life at Homestead Village.  All forms of exercise are offered including aquatic classes in our heated pool, strength training, Tai Chi, balance training and more. We also offer fully equipped gyms for those who want to work out on their own.

Healthy-living education options are offered regularly.  These include nutrition classes, cooking classes, caregiver support, and brain-health classes focused on helping our residents avoid memory loss.

The core of our healthy living philosophy is our “Thrive Where You Are” focus.  Homestead Village has crafted a culture of coming alongside the persons we serve to assist them in living their best lives in the most independent setting possible. Our goal and programs are designed to keep our residents thriving in their homes, not in health care residences. This is evident through the flexibility that is afforded to apartment dwellers, who can take advantage of a Personal Care program that provides in-home services. The program ensures that residents can remain in their homes and not be separated from their partners.
