Poor is all I can say. Incompetent in every way!

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

this facility consistantly lets medications run out, leaving the resident to suffer withdrawals, cannot take simple manual blood pressures and the RCC is sorely unqualified and incompetent to communicate to doctors , family or the resident themselves , i have asked for an investigation from the State of NC , please thoroughly check into before placing your family or friend here

IF you place anyone here, be prepared to advocate and oversee all of their medical needs, senior staff is incompetent and underqualified , let medications run out, cannot take simple vitals manually and the RCC goes to the resident and leaves any and all issues in their lap, this place needs a complete overhaul of senior staff

Angels every one of them

My mother who was 90 years old and suffering from mild dementia needed around the clock assistance. We placed her there in May of 2016 and she remained there until her passing in November of 2017.

The director was very nice and informative. The place was clean and everyone we met seemed really nice. The rooms were two bedroom suites with a common area in the middle that slept two to each room. They were very spacious and the furniture was provided. They seemed to have plenty of activities and the menu was wonderful. They had good ratings by the state and all in all they seemed like they ran things very efficiently and took pride in their work. I think my mother will do well here.

There was no welcoming furniture but there was a very strong smell of smoke. Everything was plastic. I would not have put my mother there. They contacted me several times, telling me they were the only ones who accepted medicaid. Thank Goodness, my mother does not require that. Driving in, it's located near a prison so there's signs saying how far away the prison is. I walked in to the lobby they was one plastic covered couch and nobody to help you or greet you or even a desk to ask questions. I didn't even want to…
