Fort Tryon Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing

I came to this facility while my grandmother was a resident after she underwent hip replacement. During her stay there and my visits to her, I can honestly say I have never seen her happier. She was there during the spring up until the beginning of the fall and she really looked as if she was having the time of her life. The staff seemed very helpful and at times even appeared to wait on me. This facility has an outside patio are on one of the upper floors which allows the residents to look out over the neighborhood. Along with the position of the building itself, the view from this courtyard actually lets a person see out for many miles at a time, given the weather is willing. The facility smelled fresh also, it didn't have a dingy smell or smell overly sanitized. It smelled neutral. Another big thing I noticed was the food. The menu was not at all bland, the food was healthy but still maintained an appetizing appeal. I have nothing but good things to say about this facility and would easily recommend it to anyone in need of such a facility.

This Jewish facility is run by a caring and committed staff that try their hardest to make patients and visitors feel welcome. Yet the atmosphere and decor of the building is bland and sterile, as if they were making sure they wouldn't offend anybody. There is a multi-purpose Temple/Chapel used for Shabbat services every week, as well as a hair salon, exercise room and large collection of movies to watch. But the best feature is definitely the large terrace that looks out onto Northern Manhattan.
