These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 27% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
The Greens at Lincolnton receives highly polarized feedback, with families either praising the compassionate care and helpful concierge staff or reporting severe neglect and staffing shortages. While some visitors highlight a clean environment and dedicated nursing teams, multiple reviewers describe long wait times for call lights, medication errors, and poor communication from administration. Prospective families should be aware of the significant inconsistency in care quality reported across different shifts and departments.

Key Review Excerpts
“The lack of adequate staffing results in unacceptably long wait times for assistance from both nurses and CNAs.”
“They gave my father in law nicotine patches instead of nitroglycerine patches for his heart 3 times. I can understand a mistake once but come on.”
“The concierge Sara and Meka were very helpful in helping mom adjust to her new environment. They were always checking on her, making her smile and trying hard to get her to interact with other residents.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
