White Oak Manor Tryon sits peacefully in Tryon, NC, surrounded by woods and gardens where folks can enjoy landscaped courtyards at Benson Hall and around White Oak Village buildings, and the grounds feel quiet and relaxed, letting residents spend time outside when they want. The community offers a mix of care, so seniors can choose from assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing, and memory care, all on the same campus, with a 70-bed skilled nursing center that has its own short-term rehabilitation wing, where a team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants are always there, day or night, to help residents. White Oak Manor Tryon runs as a continuing care retirement community, so there are different options for care and living arrangements depending on what people need, and there's no entrance fee for the independent or assisted living suites, which all come with private baths, a 24-hour emergency call system, and either three meals daily or a noon meal as part of the dining program.
Benson Hall helps those who want assisted living, with personal care and medication help, where you can also get daily help with bathing, grooming, and dressing, and there's no extra cost if your needs change. The White Oak Village Apartments, built on two floors, give independent seniors the choice between one- and two-bedroom apartments, each with private glass sunrooms for sitting in the light, looking out at the trees, or just staying warm on cool days. The campus also has things like a beauty salon, a barber shop, a library, and a community room where residents can gather, and you'll probably see a lot of activities going on, with scheduled fitness classes, movie nights, music sessions, and social programs where families and the local community get involved.
Doctors, dietitians, medical consultants, social workers, and therapists work together at White Oak Manor Tryon, making care plans with residents and their families, and there's help if someone needs speech therapy, occupational therapy, or physical therapy. There are also care specialties in ophthalmology, dental, and podiatry services, and programs for wound care and diabetes. Residents who need rehabilitation can get outpatient or inpatient services for things like balance problems, orthopedic injuries, and stroke recovery, with specialized therapies such as diathermy and peripheral neuropathy therapy, pattern electrical neuromuscular stimulation, and virtual rehab if needed.
Residents who want memory care find help for Alzheimer's and other memory issues, with staff trained in dementia care and areas set up for safety. The community handles daily needs, including laundry, housekeeping, and scheduled local transportation, so seniors have support getting to appointments or events in town. Meals are served daily, with special attention to dietary needs, and the dining programs get good reviews from residents.
The staff, including Crystal Laughter, Jenny Chavez, Erin Conner, Karin Dipiro, Crystal Price, and Teri Wineland, help run everything day to day, making sure residents feel welcome.
