Along the Susquehanna River in the quiet town of Apalachin, New York, your loved one can experience family-style senior living at The Homesteads/Barton FTHA, an intimate care home with about six residents. You’ll feel a difference compared to larger senior living communities because of the high staff-to-resident ratio and homelike atmosphere. The colonial-style home is just down the street from favorite hometown restaurants, shops, and the local library. The Waterman Conservation Education Center, including a museum and hiking trails, is only minutes away.

The Homesteads/Barton FTHA offers services similar to a larger assisted living and memory care community. Your loved one can get help with activities of daily living such as bathing, grooming, and medication management. They’ll enjoy the outdoors while spending time on the deck or secured yard. Three homemade meals with a selection of desserts are served up daily, plus a couple of snacks.

For residents with dementia, security alarms on exterior help ensure they remain safe. Other amenities include transportation on request, an emergency call system, and laundry and housekeeping services.

The care home features furnished semi-private, private rooms, or private rooms with a half bath.

  • Definitely a place for mom - the best place ever

    They do a really good job with keeping the community clean. The staff is wonderful. The care is excellent. My mother can be aggressive at times as a result of her condition. The care giving staff does a great job of handling her when needed. At her previous community, they were unable to help her through her aggressive episodes and as a result, didn't do well with her care. The staff at The Homestead has been great and treat her very well. Both my mother and I are very happy with the community and I cannot say enough good things about them. The owner who has had the business for over 30 years has a lot of experience and that is reflected in the care. They always call if there is ever an issue. It is a wonderful place. They even send me pictures of my mother just to show me how happy she is! They also have dogs to keep the residents company. Would highly recommend The Homestead to anyone!

  • Warm and loving

    Three years ago when it became apparent that my mother could no longer live alone, I started a search for placement for her. The Homesteads immediately came up. After extensive research, I called and met with [removed], the owner. She is a warm and caring woman who, because of 25 years of experience, knew exactly what my family and I were going through. After touring the home, meeting the staff, and experiencing the warm, family environment we decided to place mom there! She is still there receiving wonderful care and is happy, healthy and safe! I recommend them highly!

  • Great Tour!!

    I had a great tour of this community and was pleased with how welcoming the staff where to my loved one and I. They had a great floor plan that was east for my loved one to navigate through with lots of great amenities available to all of the residents. Overall it was more of a location issue for my my family and I.
