Tapestry House Memory Care at Alpharetta

I toured Tapestry House Memory Care. The memory care facility is separated from the assisted living and independent facility. They're about a mile and a half apart. But I was informed yesterday that they plan to move the memory care over to the same property as the other two. So things might be a whole lot nicer for the memory care once they get moved over to where the assisted living and independent living is located. But as it stands right now, I did not like the memory care property. It was old, outdated, small, and small can be good, so that small could mean that it's good because you have a lot of staff for a number of people.residents. But no, it's just kind of rundown. They're trying to keep it updated and all, but the rooms were tiny. The rooms felt small. It was dark in there and just outdated. So when they move to the other property I think it's going to help them an awful lot. Its location is convenient to a lot of amenities for those of us that would be visiting there. There's shopping, stores nearby, restaurants nearby, and grocery stores nearby. It's pretty well located in that regard.

I toured Tapestry House Memory Care for my husband. I liked the way it looked. It was appealing. The rooms were a little small. There was a large group of residents in front of a fireplace, and the activity director was doing something with them. I was shocked to see that many people sitting around. I was quite impressed with that. I did ask to see the kitchen and she wouldn't allow me to do that, which kind of concerned me. The upkeep of the building looked fine. The facility was clean and my daughter who was with me said it smelled good there. It was very pleasant looking and there seemed to be adequate staff on a Saturday. We saw quite a few staff people, so that was encouraging. She said that they have a 6:1 ratio of residents, which I thought was very good. They had a couple of enclosed courtyards. The staff who assisted me had only been there two months so I think that was the reason she couldn't answer some of my questions and thanked me for all the questions I had because that helped her be better prepared in the future. She was kind of learning her job, but she was quite attentive and interested in us and our situation, and she was very gracious. There were some questions I had that the person couldn't answer for me. I wanted to look at the report of the last inspection by the state, but she had no idea where it was.
