American House Hendersonville offers Assisted Living with a full range of medical support for residents who need regular monitoring or specialized attention. Care teams are trained to assist residents under 60, manage wandering behaviors at any hour, handle elopement risks, and respond to combative or other behavioral issues. Staff administer oral and injectable diabetes medications, coordinate wound care, oversee oxygen therapy, and accommodate physician-ordered special diets. Short-term respite stays are available, and on-site physical therapy and speech therapy help residents maintain or regain function.
The community is secured to reduce the risk of unsafe exits and is designed to support memory loss. Licensed nurses are on site, and care plans are customized and updated as health needs change. Services include medication management, incontinence support, ambulatory care, hospice coordination, occupational therapy, podiatry, and acceptance of psychiatric diagnoses. All-inclusive memory care rates simplify billing for families, and staff work directly with outside healthcare providers and doctors to ensure continuity of treatment.
Apartments range from studio and efficiency layouts to units with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and independent temperature controls; not every apartment contains every feature. Options may include wheelchair-accessible showers, in-unit washer and dryer, cable or satellite TV, high-speed internet, and air conditioning. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, and select areas feature a central fireplace, piano or organ, outdoor seating, and resident parking. Cats are permitted in designated units.
Daily meals are prepared on site, and residents can choose from set menus or made-to-order selections. Dining staff accommodate diet modifications such as low sodium, no added sugar, gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical chopped, puréed, or thickened liquid textures. All-day dining, snacks, guest meals, in-room service, and community barbecues or picnics broaden the options.
Residents have access to an activity center, fitness and health programs, clubs, a library and computer lounge, arts and crafts, yoga, stretching classes, wine tastings, dances, Wii bowling, indoor walking paths, and a movie or theater room. Live-well and reminiscence programs, Montessori-based activities, planned social events, and off-site outings provide additional engagement, and a swimming pool supports low-impact exercise.
