Overall a recommended community

The facility that she is in is the detached non-assisted living section, my knowledge of the inner, assisted living section is going to be very limited. Cons: Minor repairs take longer than expected. There is one single handyman for all the facilities there. Simple repairs such as fixing a door skirt to keep the snow out in winter time, took over a month to complete. A task that took about 15 minutes to install once started. The sidewalks and parking lots are in a bit of disrepair. The residents have complained multiple times. This is a trip hazard for many of the residents. Long story short: upkeep is lacking a bit, and it makes for concerns for trip and fall safety. Cafeteria food is apparently REAL bad. They recently had a resident meeting to get these cons addressed and the only answer they got was a "we'll see" so hopefully they get fixed soon. Pros: most of the staff is wonderful and nice to the residents. They are treated with respect and are well looked after for their needs. Medical staff on site is helpful and schedules plenty of programs for the residents to assist with fitness, balance and do it in a fun way for the residents. The events planner there is a great person, obviously loves her position and the residents she plans outings for, actively engaging the more introverted people to get out and be a part of the community. Which brings my next point, the community is great. Nearly everyone in the community is friendly and accepting. They have stared suggesting & adding activities to the calendar for all the residents to do and enjoy at free/VERY reasonably prices. The apartments themselves are spacious enough and well constructed. (Again I have not seen the assisted living portion but I'd imagine it's similar) All in all, the facility is great, and I believe it offers everything my mom needs to thrive, both physically and mentally. But I believe the upper management there leaves much to be desired. All of the above Cons I've had can be directly traced to the upper management of the facility. Other than that, the place is clean, well put together, both physically and community wise. 8/10 would recommend.

They have a lot of entertaining experiences for those who choose to be involved

The cleaning staff etc are very kind and friendly. The kitchen staff are attentive to different needs and friendly. The administration isn't the friendliest. You will see them at their best when you're shopping for a facility. They have a lot of entertaining experiences for those who choose to be involved The medical side is leased out to another company and if one needs medical backup I'd recommend doing your own research on that company. They cover many facilities. Theres a lot online. Very little medical there. The boss nurse is a LPN ( when she's there).

Review for American House Dearborn Heights Senior Living

The manger was great, the place was clean. The food wasn't good and the kitchen staff played loud music that was not appropriate for elderly people.

My mom has been coming to American House for respite care. The staff is very pleasant and understanding. She is well cared for and I don't need to worry when I bring her to this facility. Thank you.

American House Dearborn Heights

Moved my folks in after my dads stroke, and before covid. The activities are great, and they take time with each resident. After covid. They really have done a nice job getting the community together for group activities and outings. Dad has made many new friends and enjoys the music activities and other special events. He also enjoys the meals and he says "they serve good food" the staff is very friendly and they always have a moment to bring a bit of happiness to his day. When my mom passed away, they were very supportive, and very kind.

Nice Choice

This is a clean and friendly community. It needs help with activities and meals and dining. I would recommend the staff pay more attention to the residents needs in meals and activities. There are three meals a day served to the residents, and occasionally there are choices for the residents to choose from. The staff communication with the family is pretty good.

Impressed with the Atmosphere

The care is good. My loved one is not too keen on the food. it seems less than perfect. I was quite impressed with the overall atmosphere. They had an event for the grandparents which was quite nice. They also had a senior olypmics. I was quite impressed with the amount of participation. The outside decor is lovely. I can't wait to see the Christmas decor. We picked this community because the location is near other family members.

Good Community

This has been a great experience so far. So far the management has been very attentive and listened to our concerns. Water, garbage pick up, lawn care and a living unit is included in the monthly fee. Each unit is nicely landscaped. The living unit included furniture, a full kitchen, dishwasher, refrigerator, stove, washer and dryer in the unit and a nice patio when we moved in.

If you are interested in American House

We chose American House Dearborn due to the location as well as the value for the money. The apartment sizes at the facility are very adequate for what she needs. I am not sure how much of this is due to covid issues, but my mom was unhappy with the food. Right in the middle of the pandemic they were not giving hot meals and there was not a lot of variety. Now that the dining room is open, it seems that things are improving. The one disappointment is that visitors are only allowed 9-3:30 on weekdays only which makes it hard for family members who are only able to come on weekends. It does appear that they are constantly in there checking on my mom, it seems they give a lot of personal attention and supervision. I would recommend them to others who are looking.

Fantastic Experience and Staff

The staff here is outstanding! Her villa was very, very clean and thoroughly ready for Mom's move in day. While we were moving Mom in, the management and custodial staff took the time and came to her villa and introduced themselves and greeting her warmly. That meant so much to Mom and to all of us. In the few weeks that she has been a resident, Mom has needed just a little assistance and has found that everyone is so willing to answer and provide, even the smallest of things, for her. Many friends and family members always ask how she is doing and adjusting. The answer is consistently, "She loves her new place". And she does! My family and I look forward to the great memories we'll make while she is here.

A little pricey

We liked this community when my loved one lived here. The staff were nice and they took care of the community. The food was good as it was like eating in a restaurant. We had to leave due to the cost of the community. They do charge separately for the different services needed. I would recommend this community if you have the money to afford it.

Other options for care.

I am not happy with the care at this community. The restrooms do not have fans in the restroom. It appears that they do not have air conditioning. It does appear that a few things are missing from his personal belongings. It appears that they do not always have a lot of staff members at times to help with the care of the residents. The menu seems to be appealing. I would suggest that other families tour this community.
