American House Mount Prospect offers both assisted living and memory care in a two-story building for adults 55 and older, and there are options for studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, including spaces dedicated for memory care along with rooms that have private baths and kitchenettes if folks like to have some simple comforts of home nearby, and some rooms even come fully furnished and have both heating and air conditioning. The staff helps with daily activities like bathing, dressing, meals, medication, and transportation to doctor's visits, and there's a full-time activity director, so residents can join in daily activities or enjoy common areas like the dining room, garden, beauty salon, library, fitness and game rooms, or enclosed courtyards. There's both Elevate® dining and chef-prepared meal options, and meals can be tailored for special diets, including diabetes, and community dining and social outings are a regular part of life here. The Vibrant Life® program aims to keep the mind and body active with field trips, offsite activities, and an emphasis on helping everyone keep as much independence as possible, and Generations memory care is designed for folks with Alzheimer's or other dementia, giving access to 24-hour supervision, special activities, and programs that focus on memory support.
Pets are allowed-both cats and dogs-so residents don't have to leave companions behind, and there's help available with light housekeeping, laundry, and linen services. The building has Wi-Fi, cable, and phone service, and a 24-hour emergency call system covers both assisted living and memory care wings, with nursing available up to 16 hours each day and round-the-clock staff presence. There's respite care, so folks needing short-term help after a hospital stay or a caregiver needing a break can use the services too. Onsite devotional services, wellness programs, and staff described as caring and helpful provide support for the body and the spirit. The community offers transportation, concierge services, and a maintenance-free lifestyle, while planned activities and day trips help people make friends or just pass the time in good company. Residents are encouraged to try new experiences, with both resident-led and staff-sponsored events offered often.
The community's been serving seniors since 1979, and it's received recognition like the SeniorAdvisor.com Best of Senior Living Award. Biannual license reviews keep the standards in check, and both assisted living and memory care aim to match services to what each person needs, whether it's more independence or extra support. American House Mount Prospect tries to make sure people don't feel alone while still giving privacy and choice, so seniors can enjoy daily life as much as possible.
