ALIYA of Homewood

ALIYA of Homewood sits at 940 Maple Avenue in Homewood, Illinois, and has 132 certified beds that support an average of 110 residents a day, and folks get care in private or semi-private rooms with full-service dining that's tailored to special diets, and there's always a real effort to keep people engaged with social events, group meals, lounges, and activities that help people feel part of things. The facility has services for all kinds of needs, so there's independent living, assisted living, active adult living, adult day services, memory care for people living with Alzheimer's, home care that isn't medical, long-term care, respite services when families need a break, and hospice when someone's at the end of life, and they offer home health care that's Medicare-certified. Skilled nursing is a main part here, and the nursing team gives 3.63 nurse hours per resident each day with a nurse turnover rate that's at 45.4%, so staff changes do happen fairly often. ALIYA of Homewood deals with some pretty advanced needs like cardiac rehab, diabetic injections, dialysis, IV therapy, joint replacement recovery, all types of therapy and rehab after strokes, and even complex wound care, with staff handling direct help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. Folks who need specialized memory care or complex medical oversight can stay on, whether for short visits after illness or for long-term care. Social areas give people room to interact, and recent renovations added to the comfort and warmth of the space. The staff speak English, and while there's a strong focus on personalized care plans, the place has had reports of 30 total deficiencies, including problems with infection control on monitoring antibiotic use and a pharmacy issue tied to unnecessary drugs in residents' regimens, and there are specific infection-related reports noted in inspections, so families may want to look at these details. ALIYA of Homewood has the backing of the Aliya Healthcare network, and the community isn't accepting new patients right now, but it's set up to support a wide range of needs for people in different stages of aging and health, especially for those needing daily help or recovering from hospital stays, and you'll find a mix of people who are more independent and those who really need hands-on nursing. The facility provides comfort and connection for residents and, for those needing help, staff give support with kindness and experience.
