What this means for your family
Chapel Hill Community has a very dedicated administrative team that many families find helpful during the transition process. However, you must be proactive; given the consistent reports of slow response times and staffing shortages, we strongly recommend visiting during off-hours and asking for a specific plan on how they ensure call buttons are answered promptly.

Key Review Excerpts
“My husband is in the memory care area at Chapel Hill. In the three months he has been there, I have been there every day and have never seen him treated with anything but kindness, gentleness and respect.”
“Things are horrible at this facility! If you want your loved one to sit for 45 minutes after using call button before someone responds then send your loved one here.”
“The staff did a good job communicating about her needs, changes in routine, good days, bad days... I felt comfortable asking questions and expressing concerns. The therapy services and staff were excellent.”
