Review for American House Bristol
We've been very pleased with the care that our mom is receiving at American House Bristol. I would recommend.

Stay aware of the care levels
The facility was very nice, and the employees were very nice, but they are not a skilled facility, and they make sure the patients they select need minimal care. When the level of care changes, the price changes. The price will change quickly and a lot in memory care. Also, if the patient goes to the hospital and have a medical event they will not take them back if they need too much care because it is only assisted living for patients that need minimal care.

My mother- in-law has made a lot of friends and is a very active member of the community. She seems to be very happy there. It's a very clean, updated facility. They have a great staff and have had staff members there for a long time. They have really nice family nights. She's not so crazy about the food but the kitchen has worked really hard to accommodate her preferences and food sensitivities. She doesn't need any extra services at this time. It will be easier than if we had waited until she was in need of more care. She's doing the senior independent living experience.

When [name removed] was there he fell on 2 different occasions and they didn't get to him quickly. He said there for a long time He had to go to the rehab and the Doctor there told us not to send him back because they weren't able to watch him close enough. So we brought him back home. They had 1 person being responsible for too many people and we didn't feel it was as good as they described it to be. It would be better for someone that didn't need as much care.

Its all good - it's clean, and they are friendly. Sometimes the food is not so good. The room/apartment sizes are small to average.

[name removed] is a delight to work with. The place has a warm and welcoming vibe that feels more like a home than an institution. Room sizes are comparable to other facilities, but the location in Bristol makes them a better value than in hotter markets like Asheville

We are happy with the care he is receiving. He has been able to move from using a wheelchair primarily to his walker frame. The staff are very proactive with signing him up for any special practitioner they think he would benefit from

I think they are a Medicaid approved facility. That could be important if my aunt's funds run out.

The staff at American House have been very helpful in getting my mother in law settled and into a new routine. The facility is clean and nicely decorated. They have lots of activities and outings for my mother in law. My favorite is the family night event they have once a month where families can come eat dinner and they have entertainment after.

They should ask before they go about whether they have to pay privately for one year before they need Medicaid. They need to know that if someone must move somewhere else, they have to give 30 days notice. We didn't know these things when we had to move her to a nursing home 2 weeks before her year was up and they penalized us even though they wanted us to move her.

We are using American House Bristol for Memory Care for our loved one, so activities are not that important. The facility is under staffed, especially on the MC side. House keeping on the assisted living side looks to be excellent, but on the MC side nominal. The MC side has its challenges due to the residents. I feel they are doing the best that they can with the staff they have, but could do better with more staff. With that said, not just anyone can or should work in memory care.

I would recommend them. They are a Medicaid approved facility so if a resident outlived their money & was Medicaid eligible the resident would not have to move.I feel there's always a little room for improvement. So far I'm quite satisfied.

My Dad's respite stay at the American House went very well. He was treated very well, they met all his needs and overall he had a positive experience. He reported the food was plentiful and very good, the assistance he received everyday with his Activities of Daily Living was superb and everyone was very kind to him. His room was spacious and they had a TV with cable and internet for his Alexa and even brought him a recliner with a lift to use. The staff was very attentive to his needs, he wore a call button around his neck and was escorted to the dining hall for every meal. The only thing he mentioned that he wished they had was a larger than single bed but it really wasn't meant as criticism since the bed was comfortable.

Some of the staff have been great. The nursing staff have been really nice. Our mom has dementia and does not walk all that good anymore. So, unlike her first facility where she was encouraged to participate in activities we feel she is staying mainly in her room because no one goes and gets her. She always talked about her and the girls playing Bingo at her old place and her crafts. At American House Bristol she never ever talks about any of it. The food is not as great as we were lead to believe either. Mom doesn't see well and as I said she has dementia so she really doesn't understand to ask for something different. She would love good old country cooking (green beans, corn bread, Cole slaw, potatoes that aren't French fries). She hates eggs and doesn't eat a lot of meats. As far as housekeeping goes, she runs out or gets dangerously low of toilet paper. Her TV is hard to operate for someone with good eyesight and understanding. Moving in went good because we were a team of her family. At her old place the staff seemed to know not only her name but ours as well. We have called and emailed but never heard back other than from [name removed], he is my go to guy. The price and the nursing staff was our number one reason for bringing her to American House Bristol, but if not for that I would almost say her other place she liked much better and interacted with others more.

American House Bristol is in a nice location, decorated well, rural setting, very patriotic. They need daily activities for the memory care side. Meals provided need more vegetables and less starch and carbs. Fresh fruit cut up small would be good for them. It would be nice for residents to have a cup of water with a lid on it and a straw placed in their room everyday since most of them need water but don't know how to ask for it.

My family and loved one have had a great experience with American House Bristol. The community is clean. The staff and residents are friendly. They were able to accommodate our loved ones in one apartment, even though their care levels were different. This made the family and our loved ones, very happy. Overall, this is a community we would recommend to others for their loved ones.

We are very pleased and I'm glad that I chose this community for my friend. This has been an exceptional experience for my friend and they are very happy here. The community is able to provide the care that my friend needs. My friend has been able to make friends with other residents in the community. There are three meals served a day and there and choices for the residents to choose from.
