Key Review Excerpts
“This assisted living facility has a 103 rating - a 4 star+ by the State of North Carolina based on their assesment of patient care. We love the privacy of a LADIES-ONLY facility. Being only 20 beds meant so much to my mother-in-law during her stay. It is truly a family atmosphere.”
“They are really good with the patients my mother stays there and says they are really good to her”

Violation cited
The facility failed to ensure one of three sampled residents was tested for tuberculosis disease upon admission in compliance with required control measures. Specifically, a resident readmitted in April 2023 did not receive a new TB skin test, and existing records lacked documented administration dates or results.
The facility failed to maintain floors in good repair, specifically regarding deteriorated linoleum tiles in a resident's bathroom. Observations revealed missing tiles, cracked tiles, and loose tiles that exposed the subflooring and caused the floor to flex. This condition created a hazard that made it difficult for a resident to navigate their wheelchair.
The facility failed to ensure that a resident's record contained the required physician orders for the self-administration of medications that were observed being used in the resident's room.

The facility failed to ensure all residents were provided a non-disposable place setting consisting of a knife, fork, and spoon at each meal. During observations of lunch and breakfast services, staff failed to provide knives or offer them to residents, despite some residents expressing a preference for them.
