PositiveTryon Estates at Columbus is a very nice and very comparable facility. It was fairly new and very upscale with beautiful designs, lobbies, and things. The guy that did the tour was excellent. He was very nice and very wonderful. We had lunch there with them and the food was great. They got a good selection. There's a grill station and a beautiful salad bar. The facility was very well maintained.

There is absolutely no personal space for individuals going through MAJOR changes in their lives. Administration (Executive Director, Memory Care/Skilled Nursing Director, Social Worker, etc) knows very little about how to appropriately work with different types of (obscure) dementia.

PositiveWe have found Tryon Estates, and we are on a waiting list. It was wonderful. They were welcoming, answered our questions, and showed us empty units because of Covid. They're very careful about Covid, which we like. It's gorgeous. It's on 300-acres. There's a lake and all kinds of walking paths, and they take dogs. We have a little doggie and the doggie is welcome. It seemed perfect for us. It's not too stuffy, and it's very nice. They had everything. They had a hobby shop where you can…
