Beautiful facilities with so so nursing staff in a great community

Beautiful building with great facilities. Residents are treated like adults and encouraged to interact with each other. Nursing staff is mediocre at best and the business office is not responsive to requests for documentation.

Review for American House Oak Park

The CNA turnover rate is concerning. The CNAs who stay are kind and thoughtful. They are obviously not paid enough. There is inconsistent nursing staff on the memory care floor.

For families who might need a break from caring for their loved one

I think the American House Oak Park is a beautiful facility. Everybody there tries very hard and my experience is only with memory care for the 2 months we were there. Staffing is an issue which I feel will be a problem no matter where you go. Especially on the weekends. My biggest problem was with drug distribution. It took them almost two months to get things right and when I wasn't there, I was having them call me with a photo of the pills before distributed. The PT people were very good and reliable as well as everyone handling daily activities. It was clean and a very good choice for Memory Care. Again, my husbands encephalitis improved and he was able to go home so I may not be able to give the best opinion on long term care. Those I met that were long term seemed pleased but they also stayed very involved. Some sad things were said to me when they found out he was leaving by [name removed]. It was her feeling, I needed to move in there too to independent living! It was hurtful. Everyone else knew [name removed] didn't belong in memory care and were very happy he was going home. When picking an institution, I would say ease of getting there is #1.

Overall would recommend

They accommodated our budget at the time, however I sense that the cost might have become an issue. I would have liked to have better/ more communication with the nurse(s) regarding medications and dosages, and also for them to be more proactive about setting up therapies and ancillary services that we asked for my dad.

Review for American House Oak Park

I just had a friend of a friend call me last week looking for a spot for his mother. I would recommend American House after all the other ones I looked at. It's very bright, light and airy, the staff is wonderful. They've been so kind to my mother and helpful to me. Every day there are multiple activities and CNAs come to each person's unit to see if they want to attend. There are games, painting sessions, work outs. There are so many things for my mom to do. Now, as every place, administration could probably use some help in planning and staffing, but I would choose American House again, and so would she

A Peaceful Transition

Placing my loved one in memory care is the most difficult decision I have made in our married life. As soon as I stepped into the facility, I felt at home right away and I had that feeling of confidence that this is it…my loved one will be cared for safely and lovingly here. The tour was honest and friendly, no frills. The welcome we received from the residents and the staff on admission day was great! There was music, dancing ,singing , cheering, and most of all, everyone greeted us and they certainly made us feel at home! In the subsequent days and weeks of the transition , my concerns were addressed with a smile. And, family members have been very caring and helpful! I witnessed how the staff cared for each resident with compassion and love. Yes, love! Thank you!

Review for American House Oak Park

I would say it's great but it's new and still has some experience to get under its belt. I picked American House because the facility is gorgeous, the price worked with my family's income and it's close to friends who would visit my mom.

Review for American House Oak Park

I would definitely recommend American House to others, after looking at 4 other places in Chicagoland area.The activities are extraordinary, and my mom who has lived 40 years in her own house is actually happy here and more so than I've seen her in years. We picked this community because of the cleanliness of the facility, it is brand new, it's very bright, and the staff is wonderful.

The front desk and CNA's in Memory Care are friendly and caring. The CNA's are good communicators with the residents as well as the families. ED, nursing and CNA staff are all good communicators so far. There are new directors of Nursing and Memory Care, so not a long history yet but they seem nice and competent. The housekeeping is generally good. They could pay more attention to the supplies that they provide like filling soap dispensers and trash can liners, but those are minor issues. The move in was pretty easy. It's a good long push from the garage to the elevator. Their team helped hang pictures and a wall mounted TV. The meals are good. Fresh Ingredients and made in the kitchen. Service is good, with nice table settings, cloth napkins and lots of beverages offered to residents. It's a beautiful property, but what really matters is the care and food. So far, they have not disappointed I would recommend American House Oak Park to others.

Highly recommended

Everybody has growing pains, it is a brand new facility but the people are here wonderful and doing the best that they can - the biggest difficulty has been staffing just like everywhere else in the world right now. One of the biggest draws for my parents was the fact that it was brand new and it was something where they could all grow together as a community. I would definitely recommend American House Oak Park to others.
