What we do not publish, and why. We list only details we confirmed against this provider's own published information. We do not publish bed counts, license numbers, pricing or quality ratings for this community because we could not verify them from a primary source.

How North Carolina regulates this provider

Adult care homes -- the license category covering assisted living and memory care in NC -- are licensed under N.C.G.S. Chapter 131D and 10A NCAC 13F by the Division of Health Service Regulation. A community marketing secured memory care must additionally hold an approved Special Care Unit disclosure under G.S. 131D-8. Nursing homes are licensed separately and carry the federal CMS Five-Star rating that adult care homes do not receive. Inspection history for any NC-licensed facility is free to pull from DHSR's Regulated Facilities search and, for adult care homes specifically, the ACLS Inspections, Ratings and Penalties tool.

Evaluating a skilled nursing facility

  • Pull both records: your state health department's survey history and the CMS Care Compare rating.
  • Ask whether the stay is expected to be short-term rehabilitation or long-term care, and what happens when Medicare coverage for rehabilitation ends.
  • Ask about therapy intensity and who provides it, since post-acute outcomes track closely with it.

Questions families ask

Where do I start the paperwork for long-term-care Medicaid if my parents live in Orange County?

Apply for long-term-care (aged/blind/disabled) Medicaid through the Orange County Department of Social Services, which handles the financial and categorical eligibility determination; for CAP/DA specifically, also contact the CAP/DA case management entity serving Orange County. The NC Medicaid Contact Center, 888-245-0179, can help direct families to the right local office and answer general eligibility questions.

What's the phone number for NC Medicaid if I have general questions about applying for my father in Johnston County?

The NC Medicaid Contact Center can be reached at 888-245-0179 for general questions about NC Medicaid programs and eligibility, though the actual application and financial eligibility determination for long-term-care Medicaid is processed through the county DSS — in this case, Johnston County DSS — rather than the contact center itself.

Does Special Assistance pay more for a relative with Alzheimer's in a licensed memory care unit in Wake Forest than for standard adult care home care?

Yes — North Carolina's Special Assistance program applies a separate, higher payment rate for Adult Care Home residents with Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder who reside in a licensed Special Care Unit, compared to the standard SA room-and-board rate for residents in general adult care home settings. Exact current rates should be confirmed with the local county DSS or the NC DHHS Special Assistance Manual, since payment levels change periodically.
