The Best Memory Care Communities in Alamance County, NC

"Harmony at Greensboro was an exceptionally nice place. We saw the assisted living, and it was very nice. The apartments were really great, a good size, and brand new. We met a few of the different staff members, like the chef and so forth, and we were very impressed with them. They offer amenities like going out on the bus, and going sight-seeing. They don't want to go out to restaurants because of the virus, but they still take out the residents who want to go out. The place was very beautiful. The skilled nursing facility will not be open for about three or four more weeks. I talked to an independent living person who said that the food there was good. The place itself was absolutely gorgeous. It's in a good location, it's not in a high-density traffic area, the building is brand new, and they have everything there that you would want."

"The reason I chose Spring Arbor Of Greensboro for my mother is because they're very caring and very attentive. When we went there, we thought it wasn't a possibility because of the price, and they worked with us. They just showed more compassion. The place is excellent. If she falls, they immediately call me, they keep me up to date, and they are very attentive to her and her needs. I would highly recommend it to anyone. The staff is excellent, and after I have been there for a period of time, they make a conference with you, they tell you their evaluation of your loved one, and tell you what needs to be done. You couldn't ask for a better service. My mother is a picky eater but what she says is that the food is great, but the desserts are wonderful. It's very clean, when you drive up to it, they have lots of fresh plants that are blooming so it's very inviting. You don't see trash around it. They have bingo, exercise class, my mom hasn't participated much yet because she had to go into quarantine. They also have 2 activities director. When I went there, I saw a dance class where the older ladies were taking part in it. I personally think they're all very expensive, but this place is lower priced. And what you get for your money is so much more. She got a big living area where she's able to have a little kitchenette, chair, living room, a good sized bedroom and bathroom, and cabinets."

"Carolina House was my first choice and it was the one I would have taken my mother hadn't they moved her to where she was at now. They also had a memory care unit. It was extremely impressive. When I went there, there were residents wandering all over the place and they were well dressed and they told us how much they loved it there. The gentleman while he was giving a tour saw a resident needing help, he stopped and helped that resident right that minute. He told me about the call bell system. I watched how fast the call bell was answered and that too was extremely impressive. It impressed me also that the residents actually had a board that made decisions about some of their activities and the improvements they made. "

"They took great care of my mom in Horizons...she was not the easiest of residents either...they really treated her great! We since had to move her to skilled but we miss everyone here!"

"We chose Heritage Greens for my sister because they had better resources and were more accommodating to her needs. What I liked best is they have a variety of activities. They have activities for people that are interested in music, the arts, exercising, getting to know each other, and outings for shopping or outings to events. They have a very full calendar of things for people to do regardless of what their interests or age might be. The rooms are very good in terms of ease to become familiar with. The layout is more circular than rectangular, so that allows for more interaction with other people in other departments. The staff is very professional, very timely, and very receptive. I haven't tasted the food, but my sister says she likes it a lot."

"I've placed a friend in Clare Bridge of Chapel Hill. They are relatively responsible folks. It is modern, clean, and light. The food is fair and passable, but it's not home cooked. I was impressed by the number of activities and by the activities director. She is in memory care, so the activities are geared towards that, and they have exercises. It's in a semi-residential neighborhood. "

"I was very impressed upon my initial visit with Carolina Reserve of Durham. The staff were warm, open, and generous, not only with my mother but with each other, which was important to me. The staff treated each other very well. They have a nice cooperative working relationship and work very well as a team. I appreciated that, and the community activities are very appropriate for my mother and her ability. I also appreciated that cable was included with the price. That was really handy. My mom wanted her own phone, and she was able to, by just hooking into their already available internet service. Those are two costs that just made the situation much better. The activities director is very clever and I was very impressed with her. They have done things on the holidays and I took her great grandson to visit her. They could go into the activity room where they have a table set up for puzzles, colors, and pictures appropriate for the seasons. They play bingo all the time, too, which is a very popular thing in the community, and they have concerts every week where a local musician comes in and does a piano concert with them. My mom actually likes the food. The layout is just perfect, especially for those who are using wheelchairs."

"The tour at Brookdale was a great experience. The place was very clean and well run. The people were very professional. They had a nice, big dining room and a nice sitting area for the residents. I saw the residents in the memory care watching TV."

"The staff members at Warren Care Services provide outstanding care to their residents. They do it with love and compassion for each individual. They are a team of individuals that are professional and knowledgeable of best care practices. "

"I liked Alamance House a lot. It was all in one building. When you first go in, one side was for assisted living and then the other side was for memory care. It was really clean and nice. I liked it. I liked the way it was laid out and the dining rooms looked nice. We looked at two different rooms, one semi-private (which was two separate rooms but it was the same bathroom) and then the companion suite (which was two people in a room, there's a partition in between the wall and they have the same bathroom). It's smaller but it was nice. They were having a meeting right then when we went in, but they had another lady to take us through and let us see everything. They knew the people and they were out of their room in the park. They have a place outback where they accompany you out there. They could grow flowers or have a little raised bed in there for vegetables or just something to do."

"We went to Abbotswood at Irving Park. I liked that they divide the memory care into two different sections from middle Alzheimer's and then ones that are really at the end stages. They divide those two groups, which is very nice. The place just didn't feel right for our mother. It was large, and we kind of steer away from the large assisted living kind of places. They have a big activity room. They only take in like 13 people or something, but it's still very large. They have a really nice outdoor area too. Everybody there was good, friendly, and helpful. It all looks very new and nice. It has a large cafeteria area with nice seating, booths and everything. There's a beautiful outdoor area to sit in, and it was larger than most places I've seen. The rooms were nice. They offer rooms that have their own shower in them, and it's really nice. We were on the high-functioning side of memory care. Many memory care facilities have one area to shower and everybody basically uses that. My mother's fairly high functioning still and she takes her own baths and does stuff on her own. It was really nice that you could get a room there that had its own shower and a bathroom in it. I heard it was the only place in the state that divides the memory care area. Some people in memory care facilities end up being in wheelchairs and are at the end of life. It's hard to be pretty high functioning and be surrounded by a lot of people like that. You kind of feel like you're in a nursing home, so I really liked that about Abbotswood."

"I went to Guilford House. It was an unplanned visit. They were willing to go ahead and take me around and show me the facility. It's a nice facility, and it's very convenient to my home. I would consider that one in the future. I saw their dining area, but I did not get a chance to taste their food. The dining area was a nice space. They were playing games and stuff like that while I was there. The rooms seemed very nice and clean. The staff was very knowledgeable. She was not the person that would normally do that. She was from the business office because the person who would normally do that was not available that day."
