American House Cedarlake is an assisted-living community designed to give residents daily help with personal tasks while still encouraging as much independence as possible. The community accepts short-term respite stays, supports residents who manage diabetes, offers on-site speech therapy sessions, and provides a structured mental wellness program. These services are coordinated so residents can remain in familiar surroundings even as medical or rehabilitative needs change.
Care delivery is reinforced by an emergency call system that links each apartment to staff 24 hours a day, helping residents quickly summon assistance for unplanned needs. The staff handles routine health monitoring, medication reminders, and coordination with outside physicians or therapists, aiming to minimize hospital visits and keep residents on track with their care plans.
Apartments are private and come in several floor plans. Depending on the unit, features may include wheelchair-accessible showers, in-unit washers and dryers, kitchenettes, balconies or patios, air conditioning, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and telephone connections. Some residences look out onto landscaped gardens, decks, or other outdoor spaces, and select units are designed for full handicap accessibility. Housekeeping services and basic maintenance are included, with parking available for residents who still drive.
Dining is handled by a professional chef and culinary team who prepare three daily meals along with snacks. Menus offer low- or no-sodium options, and guests can join residents for meals. Restaurant-style service is standard, but all-day dining is also available for those who prefer flexible hours. Seasonal barbecues or picnics are scheduled when weather permits.
Residents have access to an activity center, swimming pool, fitness programs, and dedicated areas for arts and crafts. A library and computer lounge supports quiet reading or internet use, while health and wellness programs, live-well initiatives, and intergenerational events provide additional engagement. The staff organizes social outings, day trips, dances, and other off-site activities, giving residents a variety of ways to stay active and connected.
