American House Coconut Point Bonita Springs, FL

We found American House for my father. We're very happy with them. It's the best out of all the choices we had. My mother is very happy with them. They actually gave us what was meant for two residents using the same bathroom kind of a thing. They let him have both of those rooms for himself. One of the bedrooms is set up for his bed and dresser, and the other is set up like a small bedroom/living room thing. He got a TV set up and couch there. It's really nice. The staff is very caring. They have quite an establishment there for caregiving. We're very pleased. It is quite an undertaking for any kind of facility to take care of all their needs, but they're very good with my father. He has been there now for a little while and he is settling in. I know it takes time, but it is working out, and it is becoming more of a home for him. It's just tough to watch him because he is losing his memory. It's a good, caring place for him. Right now, there was somebody that actually got COVID on the second floor, so the place was kinda in a lockdown, which is understandable. We can make an appointment to see my father. We have been doing that. He has been OK. Even prior to that, because the virus is still around and the numbers are high, they don't have a lot of activities. Normally they would have people come in and they would have a little band and activities. They're being very protective for their residents, so there's not a lot of going on right now. American House is a very large building. They've got a couple of courtyard, a pool table, and a puzzle room, and a library. They got the residents scheduled for physical therapy. It's really nice. We're happy. I'm very pleased with them. Most of the staff are very good. Every once in a while you get somebody that doesn't seem like they're all into what they're doing, but for the most part I'm very pleased with their staff. It's a lot of money no matter where you go, but they're right in there where everyone else is. I don't like how much it is, but for what they're getting, it's a good price.

American House Coconut Point Memory Care is very nice and new; it's ony four to five years old. Among all the places we visited, we like this the best because it's new and the manager and management are very nice. The interviewing nurse is also very nice. It's just a nice and caring community. Fortunately, this particular senior community is safe and doesn't have any infections or anything. My mom seems very happy there. She's in the memory care. In terms of the food, my mom seems happy. We interviewed the chef and it all seems pretty good. They have music, exercise, and a lot of other activities. Her room is good, she has a studio, and I think for a single person her age it's pretty comfortable. The cleanliness of the place is very good. It's expensive, but no more than the other places we've interviewed.
