Nursing Home Communities in Smithfield, NC

"The place is very lovely and the staff is so wonderful to my 72 year old Mom. My Mom had said that, the food wasn't all that great but the people are very caring. "

"I was very happy with my relative's care at Zebulon rehab. The staff were friendly and helpful. Her needs were attended to almost always within a couple of minutes of ringing her bell. The rooms were small, but clean. The food was well-prepared. There were multiple activities for the residents. The PT staff did a great job helping her regain mobility so she could go home. I would recommend Zebulon rehab for short or long-term care."

"My mom is at Wellington Rehab. She has been there for three months. However, they don't do well at all with communication about bills or the family member. They suck. My mom went there from an ALF to this facility because she needs more assistance. Back in December, she was still on her insurance. In going there when she was very sick, I told them if she was off of her insurance to let me know because I have to start to self-pay, but they had not been billing me, and I had not heard anything from them since December. I had to pay four months of a huge amount of money because they had not billed me, and I thought that was just crazy as hell. But now they got me on radar, and I guess everything is going smoothly. One thing I will give them as long as I keep my mom there, the nursing staff and the care they give her is excellent. The nursing care for my mom is the most important thing. If I can pass the headache with the administration, they I'll have the headache, but if it’s the other way around, I will take her out of there. The most important thing is the care for your loved one. Their laundry department -- as far as clothes washing -- sucks because they lost 100% of my mom's clothes the first time they washed them, so I went in and picked up all my mom's stuff, and I have been washing them ever since. They have the worst laundry department. "

"My aunt is in Cornerstone Nursing Home (Cornerstone Nursing and Rehab), and she loves it there. It is good. She has a room just like the one she has at the house. It has a single bed, and it is like a college dorm. The sanitation is really good. They have lots of activities. They have church on Sundays and all kinds of classes going. However, they need more nurses at night because when my wife had a knee replacement, she was in there for two weeks. They placed something to keep her knee moving at night, and when she needs to get to the rest room, she cannot because of that thing. She twists, it really mess up her leg, and she can't get a nurse. "

"We moved my mother, post stroke, from a rehab in Huntsville, AL nearer to me and my family outside of Raleigh by ambulance. It was a long and tiring trip for my mother. The nurses and techs at Harnett Woods did everything to ensure my mom’s medications and care needs were addressed and did a great job making her comfortable in a new and unfamiliar environment. It has been 6 nights and that same level of compassion and care has carried forward. Rooms are clean with shared bathroom between 2 double rooms. They are refreshing all of the rooms, which were getting a little surface worn. All plumbing and equipment are well maintained and functioning. Meals are good and offer variety. My mother is currently bedbound so completely dependent on care from the staff. They go the extra mile to make sure she can contact them at all times. They bathe her daily with care and dignity. I could not be happier with Harnett Woods."

"I have a wonderful relationship with staff. I consider this her home and staff is her family. My loved one attends PT and activities and enjoys her time spent. The atmosphere is caring and you can feel the teamwork. "

"The outdoor court was very clean and enjoyable to set in the sun. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The meals were nicely presented. Thanks for your services "

"The occupational therapy group was GREAT. They ALL seemed to care a GREAT DEAL on your progress for rehab. They DO WORK you a bit hard, but results really came FAST! Everyone super friendly and polite. BEST THERAPY GROUP I've EVER HAD. Would really like to rate group at least 10 stars!"

"At Britthaven of Goldsboro, they were very helpful and polite. I like the caring attitude that they had with the residents. I was impressed with the facility itself. The room was okay, but it was more like a hospital room with two people in it. However, it was clean. With regards to activities, at the time of my visit, a lot of them were visiting with their family members. As for the staff, in the beginning process I was agitated because I had called several times but I didn't get any feedback. However, when I visited, they answered my questions and they were polite. It was just that part when I made the initial contact, they just took awhile. I left messages but I never received a call back. When they did call back, they did apologize for that. They need to improve on communication. However, when I got there, it was an okay atmosphere. My mom just stayed in the lobby. She really wasn't too fond of the facility, but medically that's what we need. "

"The nursing staff is amazing. They truly care about the health and well being of their residents. My Grandmother is a new resident here and I couldn't be more pleased. No matter what time of day I visit she is dressed and very well taken care of. They call me all the time to keep me updated and it's so appreciated. Looks can be deceiving. It needs to be updated and is in the process. They have a new administrator that is really on the ball and is passionate about her job and the home. "

"The room was very nice. But in the 6 days my brother was there, his sheets were never changed. He said the food was great. All of the staff was very friendly and helpful."

"This place has been great for my Mom. After Mom got settled in her very nice and immaculately clean room she started rehab I fell in love with the staff. The staff was very nice and was able to work with my Mom to get her up to walk a few steps and to be able to sit in a wheel chair. For some this may not seem like much but for my Mom this was a dream come true because she had been bed bound, not able to even sit up in bed for over 5 months before coming here. She now has been transitioned into the long term care section and is happy. I am very blessed to have everyone at Universal of Lillington they have keep me informed the whole way and when I needed emotional support they were there for me too. Today my Mom is happy, well taken care of, social, she has stopped losing weight, she has color to her skin again, she has commutation and a social environment as well as the 24 hour nursing care that she needed. This has taken so much stress off of me to know that all the amazing people at Universal of Lillington are take care of my Mom. It brings me joy every visit to see her thriving in her new place. My Mom is terminal so I know nobody can fix her but Universal of Lillington's staff has made her life happy and I can't thank everyone enough, I will forever be grateful. "

"My grandpa was here for nearly three years and while he did not like being alone during Corona, he loved riding the halls in his wheelchair and visiting with friends in this facility. My grandma and grandpa celebrated their 57 anniversary within a week of his passing and they were able to celebrate their love at a prom night where they were crowned king and queen while he was there. Our family felt a lot of love from the staff and we are so grateful to you for taking care of our grandpa! He was able to have his own room for most of his stay and I was always impressed when visiting with the cleanliness. There are no complaints from our family, we will forever be thankful. "

"This facility is amazing. The food is surprisingly good, the staff is friendly, and the amenities are nice. I went there about once a week for a year to visit my grandmother, who was no longer able to live by herself. I was always greeted by name every time and I was made to feel at home, always. I would have dinner there, and the staff even made it feel like a nice restaurant. Additionally, we would play Bingo, and the game center was very nice.I was told by my grandmother that the staff was also nice to her even when I wasn't there which was comforting. I really like the people who are there. It's a humane place with a dedicated staff and it certainly doesn't carry the stigma that many other assisted living facilities do carry. My grandmother enjoyed her stay there, and I never disliked going to visit her. "
