The Best Nursing Home Communities in Pitt County, NC

"In short this facility as since seen a much needed face lift in the past year. All and all the cosmetic appearance is much improved but the service that still work there have not seen any additional improvements or higher standards. The time that my grandmother stayed there her bath room was only cleaned once a week ( which was nasty considering it was scared with the other party in the room). The sheets were not washed unless forcefully requested. The halls looked fairly clean and the nurses stations seems to be in a good state but I personally think that is so the up in coming patients would have a nice feel for it. The food would be rated as just plain nasty and only fit for those without any taste buds. The lack of patient care this company provides proves that some place need to be fully investigated before allowing your family to stay with complete strangers. "

"My mother has been at Harmony Hall Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for 2 months now. The place is clean. She seems to be happy there, and they're taking good care of her. They contact me often about my mother's case. I'm having a meeting tomorrow with her care team just to see how things are going and I do that once a month. They call me if anything changes with her medications or if she's suddenly sick. They've been very cooperative in getting her to her doctor's appointments by transport. The staff sometimes just seem to be a little overwhelmed with the demands and needs of their residents. I know they're doing what they can, but I think they probably could use more staff. The food is good, and they have a nice variety. There are three residents in her room, but there's room for a chair and a wheelchair. Each has her own bedside stand and an eating table."

"Everyone seemed warm and acted like they really cared about the patients they were taking care of. The areas were clean and the people were happy. If the time comes and my parents are in need of a facility like this, I would send them there. I felt like everyone was taken are of. "

"We are now at Barclay House of Tarboro. So far, we're very pleased. We have been here for a little bit, but so far, everything has been very good. Everybody has been so nice, and they seem to know who we are right away. They're taking the time to learn who we are. The staff has been very nice, have been very cooperative, and very helpful. They're doing very well, and our apartment was just all clean before we moved in. The food is very good. I just noticed my husband this morning, and I think I have to put him on a diet already. On Sunday they have brunch. We just had a brunch, and that was delicious. We have eaten in the dining room every night and it's very good. Regarding activities, we have only been to one event, and it was a Christmas Carol sing along and I loved it. We had a good time with that. Given the apartment we have, the value for money is excellent. We're in what they call the penthouse. It's a beautiful apartment, and very spacious. My husband is in a wheelchair, and we chose an apartment that we knew he could maneuver, so this is a bigger apartment. And so far he's been able to get around without having to back up and come around. This apartment has been very good for both of us. I like the space, and he likes the ability to maneuver."

"My brother moved into North Carolina State Veterans Home - Kinston. It's a wonderful place, very nice, very clean, and doesn't smell like pee. Everybody welcomes you with a friendly heart. They just were so, so helpful. We're just so delighted to have him back in there. He was in there for rehab. They sent him home, but he had to go back. This is his second time. They're just wonderful. The staff was wonderful. As soon as he pulled up, he had people out there that were so excited to see him. They walked out and just greeted him with open arms, and that staff is amazing. The room has his bed in there (which is a hospital bed), and then also tables and chairs, a desk, and wardrobe closets for him to put his clothes. It's kind of like a studio apartment, but we got one that had two great big windows. It's looking right out down the road. He could see people when they're coming in, and all the trees. It is beautiful. It's all private rooms. They had a bingo setup. They had church, and then they had game night. They had a lot of activities going on all through the day as well. He just came back today. The food is great."

"I am the brother of a former patient. He was originally placed in a different SNF after a short stay in the hospital with an infection in his foot. Prodigy rehab Director came and saw him at his previous facility, they immediately connected and he was transferred the next day to start his rehabilitation and nursing care. He was unable to ambulate or even transfer, but by the time he went home he was doing all that and more. Because I live so far away I was unable to be there, but I felt comfortable with the care he was getting. The facility was very clean, everyday they came in his room to clean the bathroom and wipe down switches and handles. Nursing did a wonderful job, with his daily needs. The rehab staff even brought him outside food some days. He and I would recommend this facility 100%. "

"Helpful and caring staff. "

"Upon arriving I noticed that the doors were locked with a security system and you either had to know a code to enter or you had to ring a bell for service. I thought this was great as sometimes seniors can be the victims of predators. I also thought this was good because some patients may have the tendency to wander. Once I entered the building I noticed how clean it was. The staff were all cheerful and seemed happy, polite, and friendly. The residents were lining the hall waiting for lunch. Some residents, my grandmother included were playing a game of Bible Bingo for prizes of candy and lolipops. My grandmother seemed very happy about her winnings. Overall I think my grandmother is happy there. She is able to socialize and live a happy life while still receiving the care and attention she needs. "

"The staff at Longleaf Neuro-medical Treatment Center were attentive to the residents. The residents got very good care. It was an older place but very well-kept and clean. I thought a little modernization would be one thing but that would take some time. "
