Assisted Living Communities in Edenton, NC

"My momma just moved into Edenton Primetime Retirement Center. It's nice and the people are helpful. She said the food is good and that they deliver it properly every day at the same time. She has a private room with a full bath, a closet, TV, a fireplace, and furniture. It's also handicapped-accessible, They have games, and they have somebody come in to do their hair once a week. With COVID, we can't go out there very much. Only two people can go in for twenty minutes a day. The administrator is very helpfuland pretty accommodating. The staff helped Momma do what she asked to do as far as getting out of bed and getting her showered. The only complaint she had was that they just provide plastic silverwares, so we brought her some real silverwares."

"I went to see Gates House in Gatesville and was very impressed with it. One of their representatives is supposed to go to where my husband is now and evaluate him. I saw some of the assisted living, but the tour is mostly for memory care because my husband has Alzheimer's. I've been talking with one of their representatives for several days now, and she's always been punctual in getting back to me. She keeps me informed and gives me some assurance that they're trying to do what they can to help me. I'm looking for a locked unit for my husband, for safety, and I was impressed with the rooms, the cleanliness, the way the residents appeared there, and the way the staff worked with us. I also like that the rooms were neat and the bathrooms were clean."

"Our tour of Brookdale Elizabeth City was wonderful. It's awesome. I would love for my friend to be there. We liked it because it's something similar to our apartment. It doesn't make my friend feel too closed in. He also likes the idea that there are other men there. Regarding the staff, I'm a loving person, I'm a caring person, and I love to help other people, and I feel the same vibes from the staff."

"I visited Inn of Williamston. The administrator was really nice. She took us around and showed us the facility. She was very nice and explained everything. The residents were gathered in a central location, and it seemed like they were having a great time. Every time a visitor came in, they were excited and wanted to talk to you. I found that very interesting and funny. The staff was great. The whole facility needed to be updated. The bathroom had a terrible odor, but it was the age of the home. They had a menu showing what they were having for breakfast and lunch. "

"My mom moved into the Edenton House. We are all 100% happy, and she is 100% happy with the way things are going there, and would you say ecstatic. Everyone that we've come in contact with the Edenton House has been very, very helpful, and very, very loving toward our mom. My mom seems to enjoy the food. Cleanliness is on the top of the list for us, it does not have a smell of anything but cleanliness, and everytime I go in there, they're cleaning. You see them cleaning everywhere, the floors, walls, bathrooms, constantly, I think they're all over the top of it, it's a good job. I know she has enjoyed being with crafts, she's always liked that kind of stuff."

"My mom will be moving into The Landings of Albemarle. It was built and was supposed to open, but COVID happened. So, it just opened 2 years ago, and the facility was beautiful. I had an aunt that was a millionaire and her facility was extremely expensive, but this one is right there with it. The dining facility was strictly for dining, unlike in other places where the dining room was a group activity facility. Each room had a shower that was no step completely, just a walk-in. In each hallway, there was a huge bathroom that had a huge shower and a huge walk-in tub. So, if a resident either wants the staff to bathe them or they want to have a bath, they have that option. They had an outdoor courtyard in the back that had lighting so that in the evenings they could sit out there and enjoy the fresh air. They had a physical fitness room, and I know that they offered physical fitness classes. If there was an emergency, they had the medical staff for assisted living. It was just a refreshing place. It looked like a place that I'd like to stay in and have someone feed me and the doctor comes and sees me. This young lady had a grandfather who was a resident, and that's the room that she showed me. She was knowledgeable because she asked if my mother was military and I said no, but I am. And so she told me, for the future, what's available for me if I ever choose to select them. Everywhere I looked was clean. It looked like a living room, a family room lodge with a big fireplace, couches, chairs, and lamps. It was very welcoming. It wasn't sterile."
