I visited American House Farmington Hills. I didn't really dislike anything about it, I just felt more comfortable with the other place because I was familiar with the staff and I've been there. During the tour, they were very helpful and gave me a lot of information. They showed me around the building, the building was nice, and I don't have any problem with them at all. The staff was really nice when I was there. The rooms were a little larger and it was very neat and clean, but the other place was a little nicer. They have someone to come in and do hair, they have a podiatrist come in and trim toenails. They also have physical therapy, activities, outings, and someone would come in to play music sometimes, and they'd have a little sing-along.

My mom has moved into American House Farmington Hills. It has been very good. The physical appearance is very good. The staff are very friendly and very caring. They have a restaurant, a living area for meetings, a secondary meeting area, a hair salon, and physical therapy staff if needed, and they're always bringing in different types of entertainment for the residents. They have daily morning exercise classes. They rotate activities. Sometimes it's craft activities and sometimes they'll bring in a band. They have like a Vegas day where they bring in things you would normally think with gambling, but they give out prizes. They're not gambling; it's just an entertainment thing. The dining area is quite nice. I like its close proximity to my house, so I can get there quickly if my mom needs me. The staff seems to be watching the residents, to make sure they're okay. I had them call me when I had my mom out for a doctor's appointment, and they didn't know that she had checked out, so they called me just to make sure everything was OK. They're on top of making sure everybody stays safe. Cleanliness is quite good. It seems to be an older building, so there are things that go wrong just like any building that gets of age. There's probably not a lot they can do other than keep repairing as they go, and that's what they do. I don't get to see the activities firsthand, but from what my mom says she enjoys the bands that come in. She is limited in what she can do just because she has low vision. Compared to the other places we visited I would say the value of the monthly outlay is very good.

I was very much impressed with American House Farmington Hills. It was very clean, the staff was very nice. The food smelled very good, and the rooms were very, very clean. I was very impressed by the rooms. The residents seemed to be very, very pleasant and in a really good mood. They were eating. I wouldn't mind sitting down and having a meal, but everybody seemed to be very pleasant.

It was great. They're pricey, but still okay because they had 24-hour care. It's assisted living, so there's a little level of independence they expect for you to have. I really appreciated the place.

It was nice and clean. The people were really nice and helpful. The rooms were nice, clean, decorated nicely, carpeted, had a kitchen counter, and a full bathroom with handicap accessibility.

It is great, and the people there are really good. They know us, and we know them. They do activities all the time -- like every Thursday, somebody comes in with music.

Everything fit in with what we needed. We were very pleased with everybody who helped us. We have no complaints at all. My husband's sister-in-law seems to be pleased, and that's the only thing we can go by.

My mother is in here now. It is really nice, neat and she is satisfied with it. We, as a family, is satisfied with it. I think it is a good place. The monitoring is good for her. The assistance with deficiency is taking care of. The meals are great. The varieties of activities, the socialization and improving her quality of life are taken care of and it is really good. I think the staff is really well trained. They are passionate and very responsive.

I didn’t like the apartments. They were all on one floor except there was a ramp going up to another level but there were no stairs.

It was very lovely. However, with my mother-in-law's Parkinson's, we needed a place that would cater a little more to some of the lifestyle changes we are expecting in the future. The apartments were very nice. Everyone was very understanding. They answered all our questions, and they seemed to be very concerned with the residents and their comfort.

I did make arrangements for a relative of mine. It was a really good facility. I already made a deposit and on their waiting list at the moment. The staff are very accommodating and helpful. They have either two rooms or one room with a kitchenette type of place. They do have activities like they have weekly dances, music shows, card plays, walks in the park, and trips to the shopping mall; they really have a lot of recreational activities.

We just visited last year. It was really nice. We were thinking of getting one of the little houses they have. The food we had there was nice, as well as the living conditions. Everybody was very nice too. They have exercise, and they watch the TVs, like a video home. I like the fact that they have little individual houses and everything was just one level.

It was a nice, small community. The lady that showed us around and the director were both very accommodating and gave us a lot of information. But it was definitely out of our price range.

Mom had stayed and we chose that because of the price and the proximity to my sister. However, I did not like the facility. I thought the food was mediocre. It was not great nor bad. The caregiving part was good. They had activities and they had newsletters that told about the activities. But the building was old and poorly designed. Her whole apartment got flooded and that's why it smelled funny. They had a ramp. Mom had to go up and down and fell on the ramp. That's why she had to go to the hospital and we had to move her out.

It is very nice too except that it's on a busy road. When we went there, there was nobody there to show us around. The couple of the workers told me they can show me around and so they were really nice about it.

I saw it in the magazine and I visited it. They seemed to have a lot of activities. The staff looked attentive. The rooms were just the right size but there was no kitchen.

The facilities at this location are actually very nice. There are rocking chairs outside of the main doors where you can see some of the residents during the summer. The lobby is well appointed and warmly lit. It has a very open and calm atmosphere. Once, they had a middle school orchestra come and perform for the residents. My thoughts about the staff are slightly mixed, but positive overall. There have been a couple instances where the staff came off as rude when entering the room, but that was few and far between. The most notable experience I remember is that my Great Grandmother (the resident) accidentally pulled on the emergency cord, and two nursing assistants came sprinting down to her room, reason being that the last time the cord was pulled, she had actually fallen. It's reassuring to know that they're keeping an eye on her, instead of being negligent like some other places. I know that she's in good hands. Overall everything is clean and well appointed.
