Assisted Living Communities in New Bern, NC

"Nice community. Very clean, Staff seems to be happy to be there. Smiling faces of residents "

"Sommerset has a very friendly staff and patients are free to enjoy the facility as well. The facility was clean and seemed to be well organized with distribution of meals, medications and more. Patients are allowed to go outside to enjoy the sunshine on bench seats displayed out front. As you enter the facility there is a family room set up for patients and family to enjoy visitation comfortably. The workers seem very busy; but I notice that they are focused on the patients; which is good. The rooms occupy at the most two patients per room, some are private only. This makes it nice for those that need a friend or just are loners. When you enter the facility you are required to sign in as the visitor or other persons of interest. They do have a library that brings books for the patients to enjoy. The patients were well kept by staff upon my viewing clean and comfortable. "

"I have been looking for a place for my mother. I had the privilege of working with Ms. Arnold. She is a very friendly, knowledgable, and warm person. She took the time to show me around the building and even suggested to look around at other buildings before making my decision. She answered all of my questions and put my mind at ease about the decision I was having to make. The staff was friendly and while taking a tour of the building it was obvious that Ms. Arnold was not just trying to move in someone new, but that she and all the staff I met cared about the people living there. I was invited to come by any time and talk with her staff or seniors and was even invited to their upcoming prom. My husband and I decided to ride by on their "prom night" to see if it was all that I was told it would be. It was. It was beautifully decorated and it made me feel reassured to place my mom at this building. The staff was dressed in their prom attire and was dancing and taking pictures with the folks that lived there. I am so glad to have seen this for myself. I highly recommend Carebridge to anyone and please make sure to ask for Ms. Arnold. You will feel like you are part of the family right away. "

"We chose The Cottages of Swansboro for my sister because of the location, the price, and what was included in the price because it's a flat fee. They don't charge extra if medications are required. Everything is included in the flat rate. It's very nice and very affordable. It's a home setting, so each person has their own room. There are six people in each cottage and everybody has their own dining room and living room within the cottage. Everyone comes to the table and has a meal as a family. Each cottage has one house mother to six residents. They have three or four shifts throughout the day, but they're always assigned to the same cottage. They have a staff that goes through all the cottages to give out medicines. The food is fabulous and homecooked. Each cottage has their own laundry facility. I love all the people there. It feels like family. The director is fabulous. We are happy with it so far. They have an online beauty shop and an activities director, do art, play games like Jeopardy, and have a little bus that takes them to different places. They have therapy dogs and gospel groups that come in."

"Liberty Commons is great. It’s a smaller facility, and it’s very clean. The staff is really happy. There’s a lot of personalized care. They pay a lot of attention to my mother-in-law, and they seem to do a good job. We have family that lives there, and they go to see her everyday. "

"Lighthouse Village is an older place. They don't have bathrooms in the rooms. They have community-type bathrooms and showers. The residents are super friendly. As soon as I went in the front door, they had the staff saying hi to me. They have activities. It is an OK community and the price is extremely reasonable. Lighthouse Village doesn't have as much as far as amenities but it is just so friendly. To me, that would make up for some of the other things. It doesn't have a lot of extra things but it is extremely friendly that it makes you want to be there. It is assisted living and all-inclusive. The dining area is more of a cafeteria style. Some of the rooms are two people to a room, but you can get a room to yourself. A lot of the residents were in the central room watching TV together. Well, because of the price and how friendly it was, it is one of my top three choices."
