Types of care available in Durham, NC
We picked this community because, we didn't have much of a choice. The whole system needs to improve. The elderly need more advocates. My words of advice to other families, looking to place their loved one at this community is; no matter how nice it looks, you still have to make sure your loved one is being taking care of and don't give up.
This facility is very warm and welcoming on the front end. Housekeeping is often and not perfect, but they do a good job for the most part. Ongoing communication with the family needs improvement. If we reach out we can usually get answers, but it would be nice to receive updates on dad. Especially with him being in memory care and not being able to tell us things on his own. Like activities, for example. I know they have them, but I don't know if he participates or not. One thing I would suggest is offsite activities. I don't think they have them but I think they should. Overall, dad's needs are being met and he is taken care of here. We didn't have a lot of time to look around, our need was pretty immediate. If we would have had time to look around, I'm not sure this would have been our top choice. However, it's working out ok. I would recommend them to family and friends.
The registration process (applying, move in, etc.) were all great- amazing help and friendliness. I think it's important to note that when he passed away I was very disappointed with how things were handled in certain aspects. But I couldn't say enough good things about the beginning experience.
