American House

He fell twice and had to go to the ER. Reeked of urine. Looked like they didn't shave him for a week. Don't place him there. Find a different facility.

Not enough staff and the administration doesn't seem to care that they're short-staffed, which is dangerous for your clients

Some staff members were very compassionate. Others were the complete opposite. All individuals in the prior administration were intentionally unhelpful. My relative was not able to advocate for himself, and it was not a good place for him. For a person who just needs a low level of assistance and is able to advocate for themselves, it would be ok. I hope the new administration assesses the staff carefully and retains the ones who are extremely caring and skilled at their jobs and has the others leave because they have no business working in the field.

There are some genuinely good people working there, however, there is a lot of improvement needed. I think they are working on it. I would not recommend them until some improvements are made.

Some of the staff need to take classes on how to be compassionate when a loved one is dying. Hospice staff were great. Not the facility staff. Sadly, this is not a place I would recommend.

Town and Country is a hot mess and I am becoming sorry that I chose it for my mom. Inconsistency with communication concerning services that were promised prior to move in then changed once Mom moved in. It seems to depend on who you talk to at any given moment. Definitely a lack of communication between administration, health services, sales, and transportation as these people seem to float between multiple facilities. The friendliness and sense of caring that was exhibited prior to moving in disappeared shortly after Mom moved in. Seems more like a warehouse than a home.

Originally they were good . However, they moved due to lower standards and higher costs. It's not worth it.

Check it out carefully before committing to transferring there. There are many hidden costs that we are not told about at upon enrolling The food was not that impressive. The activity was practically none. There’s no encouragement. They are to mingle with the other people that are there. All you do is walk the halls by yourself my cousin who was there was not impressed at all, and refused to stay longer than one month.

Housekeepers have to be asked to vacuum and clean the bathroom or they don't do it. Friendly staff. Not impressed with the care services, there appears to be no supervision checking to see how staff actually does their jobs. The dining is an exercise in patience, staff is very, very slow in getting meals out. I have eaten lunch several times and found that. Residents often have to wait 10 or 15 minutes before being served the first course. Meals often take over 1 hour because staff is so slow delivering food. I met with the manager and food service director this week to discuss this problem. Residents tell me they met with management about the problem once already but it has NOT improved. Daily reminders of what is happening in regards to the activities would be helpful. Very expensive for the quality of what we have experienced.

The cleanliness and friendliness of the staff is phenomenal. Food selection was not as promised and rarely ever matched what was on the published menu. They said their policy was to "lay eyes" on dad every 2 hours every day, but that did not happen with any regularity. He often missed meals or events because he was asleep in his room and no one came to remind him. I don't believe it's because they didn't care, they love him, but they don't seem to have enough staff consistently to cover the events and procedures promised. Scheduled events are often cancelled or cut short due to staffing issues. Weekend events never happen. We have spent several hours there on weekend days and not a staff member in sight, no activities that are listed on the calendar, no one at the desk or office. They have a beautiful chapel and we were told there were several different types of services to choose from (catholic, Baptist, Methodist, etc) but when we went to look for them the nurse on duty said they don't do those anymore. Just didn't live up to our expectations from what we were told when moving dad in.

Overall...The grounds and home is nice but my parents have had several issues with the villa. The experience would have been better without the high increase in rent, the difficulties with a parking space and a $50 cost to pay rent with a check. The free WIFI is troublesome and to date they have not had WIFI for 3 weeks. One of the amenities was to have a weekly housekeeper. They stop coming and the few times they did, the service was subpar. The showers needed extreme cleaning and vents were extremely dusty. My mom ended up cleaning the showers and some of the vents. When mom complained someone came and cleaned some if the vents. They have an ant infestation. Several attempts were made but no success in eliminating the problem. Overall staff is friendly but not successful in effectively solving my parents issues. They are in independent villa. However, when their pull string was activated help came quickly. We appreciated that and was impressed by their haste. They never dined. They did not participate in activities. They do not feel the cost v value is not there. Living in the independent villa and paying nearly $[removed] and having all the aforementioned issues, it definitely is not worth it. To this end, they are currently actively looking to move asap.

They really let us down They were supposed to start physical therapy and didn't start until 3 days before [name removed] came home The rooms we're smaller than the bathroom I paid that bill but I'm going to put it on Facebook so that other families won't have to go through this.

My loved one was previously a resident at American House Hendersonville and the overall experience was not great. The food was horrible. Changes needed to be made and they were made aware of that by several different families. Nothing was ever done, even when several of us reached out to Corporate. There were a few good staff, including the Activities Director who was a wonderful and caring person.

I would recommend American House Cedarlake. We had an issue with the director, but they are making changes to improve the experience. The move in process was easy and the staff, less the director and assistant director, was very kind. The director has been removed, so hopefully other families will have a more positive experience.

If your family member can't communicate to you what is going on and needs excessive assistance, this is NOT the place. The caregivers and housekeeping were wonderful and caring. They continuously checked on us during the last week of her life (she ended up on hospice care mere months after moving there) while management never stepped in the room. The hospice worker was mortified that we were allowed in the room the morning that she passed before they even cleaned up a little and showed her respect.

My brother is currently staying there and there seems to be a lack of communication with him. At one point the fire alarm went off. He was on the third floor in a wheelchair and no one ever even came to check up on him. Luckily there was no fire. The activities are mostly my brother's fault. He tends to stick to himself. He says that there are times that they change the menu.

Good looking facility, bad working with staff when I tried to ask for a reimbursement when my wife's ceiling was leaking and I had to move her to another room (inconvenient) and ugly was when they Baker Acted her and never showed me the paperwork. My wife was sent to a physic hospital in Ft Myers, 3 hours away for 2.5 weeks. And then they didn't want her back. From my experience, I wouldn't recommend their memory care. Maybe their ALF is better.

My story: moved in refrigerator did not work, no place for my insulin. I am diabetic. It took 3 days to get a new refrigerator. The floor was to be replaced, it was not. Housekeeping was to come every day, did not come for a week. Food was same thing from week to week. Changes made a lot from what was on the menu. Never could just get a salad. Based on the above, I would never recommend this place.

Essentially, if you are a senior with no cognitive or physical limitations it is fine. They absolutely should not be taking care of adults with cognitive issues or physical limitations - they are not trained for that at all. If your loved one needs "memory care" or any degree of physical help, just go to a state licensed nursing home.

Nice resort but people are uncooperative. Horrible experience, gave them [removed] dollars, my father lasted 3 days there before he got sick again and passed 5 days later. Was promised a partial refund, 2 months later still waiting and no response from Mount prospect senior living.
