Memory Care Communities in Fayetteville, NC

"Harmony at Hope Mills was very nice, and I have that on my list to revisit. It's one of my choices. I concentrated on the memory care, but I saw both assisted living and memory care. I liked it. The person who did the tour was nice and friendly. The folks seemed nice and friendly. To me, it was small, but intimate and nice. It was just a little bit older. It was not outdated, but it wasn't as new as some of the other places I saw. The facilities were nice and they had a secure enclosed area for patients that had memory care issues to be able to walk around but be safe. They had areas that they could walk around and go outside, but still be safe within the facility. They were eating when I was there. The food looked good. I saw some activities going on, and some caregivers spending time with the residents doing activities. I only met two staff members because it was on a Saturday, but they were friendly."

"I toured. It just had a lot more amenities. Very, very clean. The staff was very friendly, and there seemed to be a lot of good vibes there."

"My mom is going to stay in Fayetteville Manor. It is a great place. They have all kinds of activities that they do with the residents -- church, singing, exercising, arts and crafts, gardening, and more. Absolutely, I would recommend it. It is only for Alzheimer's and dementia patients; they only have Alzheimer's patients there. "

"My husband moved into The Addison of Fayetteville. It's good and has a homey atmosphere. The staff members have been caring and concerned. They have bingo. My husband's room is adequate and fits his needs right now. He's had some grumbling about when he asks them to do something, and they can be a little slow about doing it."

"I'm not too much in favor of The A.R.C. They let my husband fall, but the biggest problem was that they didn't call me. He fell at 10:00 p.m. and I didn't find out until 9:30 the next morning, and by that time, he was at Chapel Hill in ICU. Overall, I think they should take better care of their patients. My husband had a nice room. He ate in the dining room with everybody else, and that was fine. I can't say anything bad about the care, except the night he fell. As far as the building and everything, it was fine. For activities, I saw them batting balloons, and they had some arts and crafts going on. My husband didn't stay there very long. The staff seemed to be good with the patients, but I didn't get to know them. It was also a little expensive."

The Eastover Gardens facility was originally opened in the ’50s as a motor court hotel servicing HWY 301, then the main north-south thoroughfare from Florida to Maine. Sometime in the ’60s the building was converted into a nursing home to better meet the needs of the aging population of Cumberland County. Throughout its over 30 year history the facility has seen many changes and renovations, including the addition of a new wing and dining facility. In 2008 the Weeks began to implement their vision of opening Cumberland County’s only free-standing Alzheimer’s and dementia care facility.
