American House Kingsport is fine for people who are in an advanced stage of severe dementia. It's reasonably good care. It's OK, but not great. It used to be a really good place. You could go to the staff any time and somebody was there and you could talk to them. When the new owners took them over, they kept their door shut and they said they were on corporate business and nobody would even talk to you. I had to go around to the kitchen to get in one time, because there was nobody even near to open the door. The food used to be good. It was amazing and then they got rid of the cooks and got new cooks there, but I saw them fixing special plates for different people, so they were trying to meet the people's needs. It was clean for the most part and very cheerful when you walked in. It had a nice ambiance. What I liked most about it was the smallness of the memory care facility. People could really observe my loved one and know that he was safe all the time. I felt like it was a better placement than the next one he went to. They also had very nice outdoor spaces where you could walk with your loved one outside and sit. Then they had a place to garden. It's pricey, but it's very lovely. They have Gospel singing once a week, but I didn't see any other activities. I think maybe that's because they were more attentive to the residents than having the ability to have that.

My mom will be moving into American House Kingsport. We chose it because of the price. More than that, they had good staffing ratios, and the room is nice. She has a large bathroom. She is in a joined room with somebody else, but she's kind of got her own room. It's close by, it's in the town where I live, and it just ticked all the boxes. The staff was nice, she was very helpful and personable. They have rehab there and they have activities but I haven't experienced any. I know that there's a rehab or physical therapy area, and then there's a common area where they have activities like painting and stuff like that.

The staff was really nice and friendly. It was clean, and a lot of the residents were out wandering, but they were all in one common area. The rooms were smaller than the other place; they're just 220 square feet, but they were nice. It's in a very nice location. It's on a dead end, so there's no traffic coming in or out. The layout was very nice and very easy, and it's all on one level. They gave me biscuits with apple butter, and they were good.
