Memory Care Communities in Greensboro, NC

"Everybody seemed friendly and nice at Kerner Ridge. The place was clean. "

"My grandmother had stayed at Clare Bridge for about a month. It was nice, and I liked it. It was a lot bigger than where she's at now. So, it was less personal attention, but it was a good place. I had nothing bad to say about it. She had a very nice room with a private bathroom. They had people come in, and arts and crafts. They had more activities than the place that my grandmother's at now. She liked the food there. It was also clean. The staff was nice. She fell once, and they didn't know. They found her the next morning. So, I don't know how often they checked on her at night. However, they were friendly and helpful. "

"The only place I had visited was the Carolina House, and it was a nice place. The staff was polite and courteous. Everything looked good. They had areas for card playing and socializing. "

"We did a tour of Walnut Ridge Assisted Living. We went in, and they notified the lady we were supposed to talk to. She came and had a folder with all their information in it. She sat down with us and answered all our questions. She was very nice and polite. We did the tour of the memory ward, and we were introduced to people. It was very nice. The only thing is that it's not affordable for my mother-in-law. The staff who gave us the tour was named Katie. She was wonderful, and she already contacted me again today. She wanted to know if I had any more questions. She said that she would even help if we needed to continue looking. We were taken to the room that they stayed in as a whole. We were in the library, game room, and dining room. The outdoor area that for memory care was fenced in. It was very nice. When we checked the dining area, they showed us the menus. We saw that they got a choice, but we did not get to try anything. The rooms were a nice size because we're looking for semi-private. They were very nice. We could bring our own furniture or use their furniture. They would give the bed and a chest of drawers. Everybody has their own closet. The bathrooms were nice. I was happy with the rooms. They are redoing some of the areas and just had a new roof put on. The only thing is (and I don't blame them) if the person refuses to come to the dining room to have their meal, then they charge a $5 fee to take it to their room. It's an incentive to get them to go in there and eat."

"Very Blessed to have such a loving and caring STAFF that truely put the Resident’s First by knowing each one of them and truely loving them. This is just not a job they do. It takes Special Individuals to do this kind of work and each and everyone of them take this to HEART when it comes to their residents the Staff just don’t look at these individuals as residents they are Family. . "

"We like Ridge Assisted Living. The staff and the nurses are very good with dad. He's in the memory care section now, but he used to be in the assisted living. He likes the food, and it seemed to be good. Their rooms are a little on the small side. They have twin beds. They share a bathroom, and it's adequate. They have a music room, an entertainment room, and a patio too. They try to involve everybody every day. They have people that come in to sing, little parties for Father's Day and Mother's Day, Sunday preaching, different physical activities, and arts and crafts."

"Mebane Ridge Assisted Living & Memory Care is wonderful. My parents are in a suite and it seems to be very nice. The grounds are beautiful and easy to maneuver. Parking is fine and overall, it's very nice. The staff has been great. Everyone is very knowledgeable, professional, very compassionate, and caring. I saw their activities calendar where they have coffee and chronicles, a daily chat, bingo, puzzles, animals, and daily walks."

"The caregivers at Wellington Oaks are very caring. They seem to genuinely care about their residents and my mom is pretty happy with the food. She is in the memory care and everything is kept clean. It's an older building, but the furniture and everything seems updated and clean. They have an outdoor area where the sun comes out and you get fresh air. It's all concrete located in the center of the building, and surrounded by three walls and a glass area, but it's open. They have a large TV room with lots of windows and sunshine, which I think is important. Everything is open and clean. They do a lot of activities with the residents, like really nice parties for them, arts and crafts, and I even heard one time in the activity room that they were having a good time. They also keep the families updated on Facebook during this whole COVID thing so that we can see what's going on."

"Abbotswood at Irving Park was somewhat upscale. The people were very friendly. I saw the peple who lived there speaking with each other and to the staff members. It was a very friendly place. It made me feel positive about it. The staff who assisted me with the tour was quite outstanding. I had a list of questions. She hit every question and answered it before I even had a chance to ask. She followed up afterwards with phone calls. I have to say, I was quite impressed. You can hire in-home care to come into the facility, if you're independent living. They try to keep people at the highest level as long as possible. It was very impressive to me because I had not seen any place do that. I would most definitely live there myself. They had excellent meal plans and various levels of plans. They can accommodate vegetarians, so I feel quite positive about all that. They had a whole calendar of activities, and they also took the residents once a week to a grocery store and banks in the area."

"As a result of Caring.com, we found Morningview at Irving Park for my wife’s aunt and she is there now and very happy. She’s doing very well. Caring.com helped us by referring us there. They showed a lot of attention; they worked very hard and we appreciate it. The staff was a lot more professional than the former place she was in. They all seemed to have a really great attitude and a lot of genuine concern for the well-being of the people who lived there. They seemed to have adequate staff to do things very well. The food is great. They have very intelligent policies and we’re very happy that we made the move. There are a couple of other retirement places very close there. There’s a business park near it and also some dwellings; it seems to be a fine neighborhood. She is invited to a lot of daily activities. It’s just about as good as it gets. "

"There are a number of reasons we chose Brighton Gardens of Greensboro, but it boils down to the services they offered and quality of the facility. The staff seemed very well trained. They act very professionally and courteous. We have not had any problems. I have eaten there, and it is good. There are a lot of activities. There is always something going on since they have a full calendar. I would recommend this facility to others. "

"Carriage House has allowed my 92 year old mom to feel loved, cared for and more herself than in a really long time. The staff is amazing with their caring attitude. Where at another facility Mom was isolated, at Carriage House, Mom is brought into activities and her social as well as health needs are front and foremost for the CAREgivers at Carriage House. Our family could not be more pleased....over the top about Mom's care. "

"My husband is a resident at Guilford House and our family feels blessed to be a part of this community. The Executive leadership is outstanding and fosters a caring and medically safe environment. The nursing staff is very compassionate and competent. The facility is great, the food is great, the activities are fun, and we are welcome to come and share with my husband. I would certainly recommend Guilford House!"

"Pennybyrn is one of our top choices because it's got a religious background. The place was very nice. We saw two available rooms. I remember the two-bedroom because it's brand new, totally modern, and it had a kitchen whereas some of the places we visited didn't have that. The staff members were outstanding. They were very kind. They gave us every piece of information about the place, and they made us feel at home. They were excellent. They had a restaurant. I tried their food, and it was very good."
