Review for American House Sarasota

The apartment is excellent, but the housekeeping is not reliable. The dining room seems understaffed, and the food is not very good, with very little protein or vegetables. The activities seem to be geared more toward assisted living residents.

Our Family's Experience.

All is going as well as can be expected. This is a very difficult transition for my parents. The welcoming and orientation was somewhat disorganized and not too thorough. With lots of questions and "figuring it out" they are getting settled.

Do Not Take Your Loved One Here

They were not prepared for my mother on move in day. No one knew she was moving in. Her apartment shower was not working, there was a leak in her ceiling. She was only there 6 days. She developed a Stage II decubitus ulcer, because no one came to check on her even when she rang her call button. She did not have a working shower the 6 days they had to transport her down the hall to another bathroom. It was a horrific experience. I am a registered nurse, and did my research. I thought this was going to be a wonderful facility for my mother, but could not have been more disappointed. American House did refund my mothers deposit.

Review for American House Sarasota

I would say that the accommodations are spacious and the setting beautiful, but unless communication between staff and inmates has gotten better I'd stay away from them. We picked this community because, I grew up in the Florida of the 40s and 50s with old oaks and water views. It reminded me of my childhood and was comforting in its beauty.

Our family's experience

My parents were both in Memory Care. It was great that they could live together even though my stepfather did not need that level of care. I feel that if he had not lived there with my mother the care would have been way worse. Staff shortages, lack of communication between managers and workers, no director (now they have hired one), overnight care lacking and on and on. Overall cleanliness was good. Friendly staff. The friendliest were the laundry girls and the cleaning girls. My mother passed away at the end of [date removed]. My stepfather stayed a couple more months and moved out last week. There was not a consistent level of care. There was also a lack of communication with the residents pertaining to care protocols. Meals were on time and food was plentiful. Lots of snacks and drinks. Quality of the food was good. Activities are varied and frequent. Also many opportunities to go off property. Social and dining are really good. The facility has to work on staffing correctly, monitoring employees to make sure they're doing what they're supposed to be doing and communication.

Review for American House Sarasota

The stairways aren't very attractive, the elevators could get cleaned more frequently. Most of the meals are very good. There are not a lot of activities in house. They have outings two days per week, plus church on Sundays. At American House, they put out a schedule once per month and put it on the door. There is a lot of space in the apartments. The cost for each level of care is a bit high.

American House Sarasota is a nice environment with friendly people. They are struggling with organization to some extent and I think that comes from missing support staff.

Happy with our choice

Overall we have been pleased with the experience - it has been better than we had expected. It was kind of stressful in the beginning just having the apartment ready by the time they were moving in. They have been very happy with the food - they rave about it and they are chef prepared meals. I would recommend American House Sarasota to others.

Quite happy with what American House has to offer.

They have a very friendly staff and lots of medical services. The rooms are really nice. I was pleasantly surprised that the food is pretty good. Everything is prepared fresh. Occasionally there's something my parents don't like, but here are lots of choices at every meal. My parents haven't really found activities they're interested in yet, except for Wednesday and Friday happy hours with live music that are phenomenal.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Florida’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Florida’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
