The Best Nursing Home Communities in Rowan County, NC

"The rooms are always clean; the staff always keeps a calm demeanor. It's a very healing and relaxing environment. As much as the staff pushes for you to get as strong and be as active as possible they respect and accommodate with your comfortability. Doing that inspired me to work as hard and really push myself. It's the care they give that really heals. I've been to a few different facilities around the East Coast, and I honestly say this was the best experience I've ever had. Very Much recommend for self or a loved one rather it be for short term or long term. you or your loved one will be taken very good for."

"I was there for REHAB. Rooms were very clean. Staff was great and helped so much to make my stay better. The Physical and Occupational Therapists were the best! The Nurse and CNA’s were so positive and helpful. I would highly recommend Liberty Commons for Rehabilitation. Thanks to all the ladies in Rehab, My favorite CNA’s Mecca and Jaime and Nurse Christina. Others but not enough room to name. Thank you!"

"My brother was at Alston Brook before he passed. We both really liked it. He liked the staff and he liked the people. I'm not sure if they were allowing families in, but they did call me ahead, so I was able to be there during his last 20 hours. It was intended to be for physical therapy. The purpose was to find a facility for him to have aggressive PT as he was able to handle getting his strength back and then come back home. The exterior was nice. I was not allowed to enter the facility, except the evening my brother died. I got to see his room and everything I saw was extremely nice. The room itself was large and very family-oriented. It had a couch and a recliner; it was great. He said it was very clean and very nice there. It's maybe 20 years old, but still looks very nice. We had such a poor experience at another place, but this one is a hundred times better. I would recommend it. It's family-oriented and I think it is Christian-oriented too because of the music that they played all the time. They have very kind staff. It was just a little odd that in some other businesses you may have the opportunity to leave messages, emails, and all the other stuff. Alston was not quite as up-to-date as I expected them to be. Other than that, they were great. They had patients in the rehab facility in one full unit. They also had patients who were probably memory impacted, like Alzheimer's or dementia, in another separate unit, which was skilled long-term nursing. They also have a little ice cream parlor and a cafeteria. For the food, you have the option at lunch and dinner to pick one of three things. So if you didn't want what was planned for everybody, they would offer you a second option. I thought that was pretty cool. Unlike other facilities, Alston remembers that older people like sweets too, and would make sure there was a cookie or something sweet with the meals, which I appreciated."

"I cannot say enough about how caring and compassionate the staff is at the retirement center. Always clean and excellent care. I would highly recommend Big Elm. "

"My sister was at Transitional Health Services of Kannapolis. She got physical therapy and occupational therapy. It's extremely clean. The staff was very helpful, friendly, accommodating, and willing to help the patient and the family. My sister doesn't like food that is not from her home so she wouldn't eat it, but I like it. I had a few things. They're very nutritional and a good amount. It was very nice. The staff members are good. They're excellent. They're very attentive to their residents."

"They are currently doing remodeling, and it will be much more up-to-date when they are finished. The rooms are very clean and are cleaned daily and more thorough than even at the hospital. The food was very good for being in such a large setting and offered alternate options if you didn't like what they were serving that day. The staff was very courteous, pleasant and helpful. When you ring the bell for help, the response is not immediate, but you aren't left for hours like at a previous community. I felt safe there since they monitor entrance and exits. I was at a facility last year for three weeks and this facility is superior overall in all aspects!"

"I was shocked at how bad this place is. My father was placed here with the intention of getting rehab but never saw any. He was in their care for a little over a week and a half and several times we came and had to get someone to get him a bath or change his clothes which should have been done without having to ask. The Cna's are awful.... Not all but most if the ones we encountered. You have to have a heart for the job and many are there just to collect a paycheck. The end came for us when we arrived at 12:30 one afternoon, my father had been in the same shirt for two days... No bath.. We called for a nurse. They found he had gained an infection so bad on his back died that he immediately had to be transported by EMS. If he had been cared for and checked daily I believe it would have been found sooner. My father said they never came when he would ring his bell, or it took them forever. I would never place a loved one at this facility!!!!! Their own staff said they were trying to leave because it was so bad there. The smell is awful and so is the service. The rn's were great... That us about the only nice thing I can say. They should be ashamed of their facility and someone needs to investigate. We are filing a complaint. My father had to have a surgery that he almost didn't make it out of because he received less than appropriate care here. "

"My brother is at Avante at Concord. He has been there for two weeks now. They provide high flow oxygen therapy, and that was the key thing. Most of the places do not have that. My brother says the food is excellent, too. Regarding the building, it is old. The inside is nice, but the outside is not. They have a very nice courtyard. And they have daily activities. They do bingo, church services, and gospel music. They do outdoor stuff but I'm not sure what it consists of."

"My family is so grateful to Five Oaks Manor for the excellent care they gave my sister. We were very elated to know that 5 Oaks has such a large staff of professionals .Their medical staff is outstanding and the therapists are excellent. What we noticed the most was my sister was so at ease and comfortable there because everyone who helped her in any area showed care and concern for her. She really liked her room and always enjoyed the food- they even made her a tomato sandwich with mayonnaise, which she loved .She has done very well after coming home."

"Nursing is very caring and compassionate. The rehab department is great with new remodeled gyms and awesome therapists. The building is clean with no odors thanks to housekeeping. There is always someone smiling and ready to welcome you in the front door."

"My wife is in Accordius Health at Mooresville for rehab. It is very good. The grounds are in good shape, and the place is very clean. The food is really good but it's just too expensive. It seems like the staff is pretty good there. They've been nice to me, and they've been friendly. They got bingo, a movie night, and plenty of activities. To me, it ain't worth the price they ask. It's not worth seven grand a month."

"I went to Davie Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. Unfortunately, I was doing my tour. I walked all over the place, and nobody wanted to stop me to ask me who I was. So, I did my tours. It wasn't a guided tour by staff. I scheduled it, but nobody was there. They have very clean rooms, which I was happy about. The staff depends on which staff member you talk to, whether they're friendly or not. Some of them are just there to get a paycheck, and you can tell. There was blood on the floor right in front of the nurse's station. I made them aware of it, and they were trying to figure out who to call to get it up, which was a little odd because that's everybody's job. The dining area was very plain, so that was a good thing. I spoke with a social worker at the rehab place in Davie, and she didn't offer much help to me. She just said that's the way things were."
