We’re proud to share that Homeland HomeHealth has earned Full Accreditation from CHAP (Community Health Accreditation Partner) following our recent re-accreditation survey.

CHAP is a national, independent organization that evaluates home health providers to ensure they meet high standards for quality, safety, and patient care. After a comprehensive review of our clinical practices, patient experience, and operations, Homeland HomeHealth was found to be in compliance with CHAP’s Standards of Excellence and accredited for a three-year term through April 2029.

During the five-day review, patients and families consistently shared strong praise for the care they receive. After visiting seven patients, the surveyor shared:

“I have heard nothing but positive reviews for Homeland from each of the seven patients and families.”

At Homeland, we focus on hiring people who lead with integrity, empathy, humility, and commitment—and supporting them with leadership that helps them succeed.

Thank you to our dedicated team and to the patients and families who trust us with their care every day.

At Homeland, caring for residents is personal—and for some, it’s a family tradition.

From nursing leadership to finance to caregiving, sisters Mary Ellen Roberts and Barbara Jones-White, along with Barbara’s daughter Abby, each bring their own role and heart to Homeland Center. Together, they reflect what makes Homeland different; attention to the individual, deep teamwork, and a true sense of home.

“We’ve become so technologically savvy that we have forgotten the person,” Mary Ellen shares. “At Homeland, we see them and are hands-on. I can take care of the individual.”
