Lincoln Manor - Fayetteville, TN

I toured Lincoln Manor. It was very nice. The staff was very nice. Everything was clean. They took me on a tour and gave me copies of their itinerary for the month of January, so it was very nice. There were lots of windows in the rooms and lots of light coming in, and a great view of the outdoors. You can look out the window and see nature. It was very clean, and it was really nice.

We have found a place for Dad, Lincoln Manor, but we haven't moved him yet. It was a great experience. The manager there walked us through all the areas. It met my dad needs. They have great staff there. The facility is really clean. They have a large dining area and a really nice courtyard in the back for the occupants to sit and enjoy the wildlife. The dining room is really nice and spacious. They have plenty activities. They have bingo and other activities during the week for them. The apartment is not spacious. It's 320 square feet, and it's a one-bedroom. There is a nice living area and nice facilities for assisted living residents. They have access to a washer and a dryer. It looked good. It is easily accessible and pretty safe. For the facility's age, it is in excellent condition.

My mother is on a waiting list at Lincoln Manor. We used to go up there and carry kids from church and I knew a lot of people there, so I've been up there a bunch. We chose it because it's my hometown and I live close and I can check on my mom. I know what it's like, and I know a couple of the employees there. The facade is very nice. I would recommend it. It's close to where I live, and I can take care of my mom. The other people that I know who have been there have been very happy. Some of them didn't want to go, but by the time they got there, they seemed to settle down and be OK.

As the population of the country grows in age, there seems to be a great need for assisted living facilities. I visited Southern Manor in Fayetteville, TN, because my parents are in their 80's, and some day my family may need this assisted living facility. We were quit amazed and welcoming this place was from the time we walked through the front entrance. Beautiful decor greeted us as well as an employee. We explained why we were there, and the employee had no hesitation on our request to a tour. As we walked through the assisted living facility, we recognized familar faces we had seen when we were younger, some of them even spoke to us. The rooms are very pleasing to the eye, and each person living there as the right to bring in a small refrigerator, and keep food in their rooms. Also, if the resident has a driver's license, they are able to leave and return.The administrator of the facility was very gracious to us and we left with a satisfied feeling.Southern Manor is in our hometown, and it would be wonderful if we can keep our parents in the same facility. My family only hopes that a room is available when one or both of our parents need it.
