Baldwin House Management, LLC

My loved one seems to be doing so much better since she moved here, she's getting all kinds of help that she was not receiving before, and they are doing a great job looking out for her. It was a big change for her but the staff have been great about being patient and welcoming to help her feel at home.

My mother in law was living here by herself but we all felt that she needed more care than what they had there. They keep an eye on you but it's not really around the clock care. It was more like an apartment, they're pretty much on their own there. My mother in law loved it and it was hard to get her to go there, she wanted to stay in her house and she fought it. There was a lot of yelling and fighting for a while. The day we moved all her stuff over there and all her furniture it pretty much looked like home, but the end of the day she was getting more okay with it and within a couple of days she was sayig it was a really nice place. I would recommend American House for somebody that doesn't need the extra care, who's more independent but they're there if you need them.

The movie theater is a feature and is clean, its shows some nice movies. My mom dislikes the food she says its ok. Overall I’m pleased.

***Like best

i am very impressed with this facility and leaning strongly towards it since it is so close to my home and has medicare availability

We arrived on time anticipating that we would have both lunch and a tour (noon). Through a communication glitch, our arrival was more of a surprise. Even unannounced, director graciously welcomed us in and gathered information from Mom. We did not have lunch, but did get an invitation to return for a meal at a later date. Sharon showed us the dinning room and meal choices, the laundry room, chapel, and then a one bedroom and two bedroom apartment. Mom really liked the one bedroom apartment and seemed to respond positively to everything that the director talked about.

I liked this community but the vibe and care that I seen at the community that I picked out shined this community and what was offered.

Here at American House Oakland you really get your money worth. There are so many wonderful activities, and the food is good too. I have made so many new friends.

When I came here everyone was so friendly. The activities are great, and all the staff are friendly. Overall a great place to live.

My loved one has really enjoyed the residents that are in this community. They are all very friendly and welcomed her right into her new living environment making her feel right at home. The staff has a great activity program and often brings entertainment. I am very satisfied with this facility and would recommend it to anyone.

Everyone has been friendly and helpful. They understand the emotional change from living on one's own to living in a community. The staff and residents have been encouraging.

We chose this facility initially because it had a warmer, home-like feel to it versus the others. There have just been a few occasions where some of the staff did not seem helpful.

Very nice place if you can afford it. We picked this community because they had porch.

Change in manager had a negative effect with many residences. Management change was negative. Activities usually organized by the residents. Changes to community celebrations changed with new management. Baldwin House has really nice apartments, library with a huge assortment of books, a meeting room for residents games , family gatherings. Don't know how management is now but the facility is good

It is a clean place with lots of events for residence. I think the price is very high for please independent living and on a fixed income. The staff is friendly. There are activities that the residents can enjoy monthly.

He was able to afford a place at Baldwin House but not other facilities we looked at. Staff seem friendly. My uncle doesn't interact much with staff as he doesn't eat his meals with the residents. He also plays euchre but they do not play it there. I would recommend Baldwin House to others looking.

The residents are very friendly. The staff is wonderful. There are some activities, but not a lot. I would recommend this place to anyone. The "aging in place" concept is very good. I will not have to move my mom as she needs more assistance.

The community tries its best to give my loved one, what is needed but if they refuse to go down for meals or other care activities, it's hard to devalue the caregivers. Overall, I think it's a good place to be. Yes I would recommend. I think all places are suffering from high turnover at this point in time.

Very friendly staff. Not enough washing machines/dryers for the building and limited time to use them. They need more activities such as art, lectures, silly games etc. They need a larger budget for the food. It would be nice if they had small menu style meals - home cooked and larger portions.

I have moved from here. Most categories are great except for the value. Rent goes up every year, some people are paying $[removed]. I am not sure why the rent is so high for seniors because they are going by each individual income vs Mshda scale!
