I'm looking at staying here at Givens Gerber Park, at least until COVID is under more control. I have a good situation, and I feel safe. The first two buildings that they built were government subsidized buildings. The building that I am in has a buy-in, but it's a very reasonable amount. The rent is based on your income, but to a certain amount. You have to have a certain amount of income to be able to pay it, but there are several amenities such as my cable, a television, and my internet, and $125 to spend in the cafe a month. It was very delightful until COVID. They have been one of the stricter places, which is good, but it has been less enjoyable because of COVID. As it was originally established, I found it to be a pleasant place to be. There are single men, single women, and couples. They have one- and two-bedroom apartments, and they're hotel style, not garden apartments, and I'm on the third floor. There aren't as many activities as I might think, but they have a clinic. It's a doctor's office and it has a PA there certain days of the week, but nothing I'm paying includes that. It's all another cost to use them, but that has been provided since I came. I could go there and get my blood work done. The food was better when we ordered a la carte. We have choices on the menu for the week, but it's not as good. I can't blame them as much as I can because of the situation. My reasons for looking at moving is I'm anticipating a different level of care. I have back pain that limits me on getting everything done. I have to pay for somebody to come clean for me. I have an apartment and I found at least the kitchen to be bigger than two of the more expensive facilities in the Asheville area. They're all somewhat handicap equipped, but mine in particular has a walk-in shower and some of them have tubs, and you request what you want. The staff is very cordial. The maintenance guys are just like your buddy kind of thing. They're really nice. The kitchen ladies are very nice. They have very friendly staff.
