Resident and family reviews generally indicate positive feedback for the caring and responsive staff, individualized services, and a variety of life-enrichment activities that enhance residents’ experiences.

However, some concerns have been noted, particularly in the areas of respite and long-term nursing care, with isolated reports of communication lapses, staff training concerns, hygiene issues, and environmental shortcomings in memory care units. These findings suggest that while many residents benefit from consistent care and supportive relationships, certain units may require heightened attention to staffing and communication practices to ensure consistent quality of care across the community. Recent initiatives at American Village have included enhancements to rehabilitation offerings and infection control measures, aligning with ongoing industry priorities for safety and resident well-being.
