Review for American House Carpenter Senior Living

It is cleaned often and trash collected daily. Several recent program changes and thus far things seem to be going well. As before, although the staff appears attentive on the whole, they are short staffed which does somewhat affect the services. Our program is new and they are adding staff. The food service also seems to be struggling to meet need for for service but they do make a real effort to do so. The menus could definitely use some improving but it sounds like they are seeking a new head cook. Need to incre…

We were given a wonderful tour by your extremely friendly and pleasant host. The place was inviting, and not too intimidating for my mother-in-law. We were impressed to see active seniors all around, and an exercise class in session. The restaurant menu and activity schedule were amazing, the cafe was lovely, and the rooms were just the right size. We were also able to meet the very kind manager, and the rates were explained to us. We hope to be able to move our mother there when we get her finances in order.
