American House Bartlett is an assisted-living community equipped to handle residents with a range of health needs, including those who wander during the day or night, require oxygen, follow special diets, or manage diabetes with oral medication or insulin injections. The team is also trained to support individuals living with moderate dementia, providing care plans that balance safety and independence.
The building maintains an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on-site around the clock, and an additional nurse on call for backup. Caregivers work awake overnight, and the community is protected by door alarms, pull cords, and a personal emergency response system that alerts staff at any hour. On-site medical services extend to visiting podiatry and dental professionals as well as a dedicated therapy room. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting receive hands-on help, and staff can accommodate walkers, wheelchairs, standby support, or a one-person transfer when moving residents between locations.
Apartments vary, but options may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, and cable service. All residents benefit from housekeeping and scheduled laundry, though the exact combination of features differs by unit.
Meals are prepared to order, and snacks are available throughout the day. The kitchen can modify textures to mechanical soft, purée, or thickened liquids and can adjust for gluten-free, vegetarian, or other physician-ordered diets. A private dining room is available when residents want to host visiting family or celebrate special occasions.
Community amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, wellness center, internet access, library, game and activity rooms, live entertainment, a courtyard, and a screened porch. On-site religious services are offered regularly. Scheduled transportation covers medical appointments and other essential trips. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
