Nursing Home Communities in Wilmington, NC

"The rooms have been nicely renovated with a modern touch. The food is really good here as they use SYSCO foods inc. The staff all seem to work together to provide a pleasant and caring environment。 This facility was previously called Accordius and didn't have a very good reputation in the community, but the August group that is out of Richmond VA, has turned this place around in the last two years and it shows. I believe that every skilled nursing has their issues, but I honestly do like the atmosphere of this place. Go and take a tour."

"Azalea Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a great facility. We'd recommend it. The people are great and the place is clean. They do what they see they're going to do. I'm very impressed with them. The food is really good and my mom likes it very much. They get their nails and hair done. They also have bingo and there's a library."

"I was really pleased with Trinity Grove, but there were really no rooms available there. I did not experience my mother being there and getting treated there, but it was very clean with lots of activities, and they were working officiously. It seemed like a very impressive place to me. The place, the cleanliness, and the staff surpassed all the other ones I went to. "

"The rooms at Brunswick Cove Nursing Center were spacious and well lit. They have an activities director but they don't have very active or very mobile residents so the activities are limited to drawings, coloring, and games. They have outdoor areas. The dining area is cafeteria style, but it was still nice. The staff there was very nice too."

"My mother was in a nursing home at North Chase (formerly Britthaven of Northchase) in Wilmington just a month ago. She just got out. She was there for rehab, but I was not happy at all with the nursing home. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. She won't go back there. The physical therapy people were amazing, but the nursing home part of it was not. The rooms needed repairs. She had to get three different beds before she got one that worked. The walls needed to be painted and had lots of marks on them. A lot of the rooms didn't look very nice on the inside. The only reason she was there was for convenience to me. It was halfway between work and home for me. She was there for 100 days. She had therapy for hip replacement. I know they're short staffed. I'd go in there lots of days, and the food would be sitting on her table; she hadn't touched it. No one bothered to open it up or help her open it. She'd be laying in bed, and it would be laying on a table by her. Her light would be flashing when I got there, and she needed help (she needed changed or something). I'd be there 30 or 40 minutes before I could find somebody to even come in there and help her. That was many times I was there. I came every day at lunchtime to bring her food."

"My mother had been at Autumn Care of Myrtle Grove. The care was fine. I think the staff was good. They did their job. They were knowledgeable and friendly. The facility was very clean. However, my mother didn’t want to be there. The food was not that great, either. "

"Great facility, very cordial and helpful staff members. Very caring and knowledgable director of nursing Leslie. Great idea for clinical nurses who are there to take care of the residents medical needs. A wonderful facility "

"I was at Woodbury Wellness Rehab Center which is connected to Stonebridge The experience here was something new to me I have never been in Hampstead, NC and to see how the facility was, was something very new. When I entered I noticed how clean and modern the place was. I felt like I was walking into a min palace. I have enjoyed the staff to the upmost, everyone is so generous kind, and respectful. They know how to care for a person medically and professionally….but it felt like the kindness at home. I got comfortable very quickly after recognizing how loving and kind there were. Food is superb and well placed on plates, staffs were so professional as if they were working in an international restaurant. Everything here is so sweet here!"

"I highly recommend Ocean Trail if you are looking for an all around great experience for a short term stay. The nurses and therapists are wonderful. They kept me informed on my husbands progress. They truly go above and beyond. The therapists are so great, my husband was able to go home much earlier than anticipated. My husband really enjoyed having a private room on the rehab hallway."

"~January 2015: Mom (age 95) was there for rehab after a bad urinary infection and disorientation, and hospital stay at Novant Hospital (AJ Memorial Hospital had no beds available). The entire staff was wonderful. Problem ... there are too few of them to go around and they have long hallways. Many times I saw them running to answer a bell. Everyone cared and tried to do everything they could to help. There are just not enough bodies to go around. There was never a mishap on drug dispensed. If the government spent less money on making the hospital beautiful and more on staff at the nursing home, we would all be better served. We do not need the "lastest" and "bestest" ... we need more good people. The nursing home is like a very poor sister. For shame on the powers that be. "

"My husband is at The Laurels of Pender. It is close by. It's the only one in Burgaw, really. He's had several operations on his leg. His last one didn't take that well and I cannot wait on him at home. He also has to go dialysis three times a week, and I cannot get him in a car and get him on places. The staff are friendly, nice, and most of them do their job. Sometimes you have one or two that don't, but most of them do their job. The food is not too good. It is just plain old hospital food, and they don't have much to choose from. They need better food there. The rooms are pretty big and nice. The facility is pretty well, too. This is the closest one to home so that is why we picked it."

"My grandfather stayed at Universal Health Care for a month. As far as the look of it, it was very beautiful. They did a very good job. They provided physical therapy, occupational therapy, and nursing care. They also had speech therapy, but he didn't need any of that. He was pleased with the food."

"I was in rehab at Brunswick Novant for a while. It was very well organized and very clean with very confident and very knowledgeable staff, but they were a little slow coming when I pushed the call button. I could order whatever food I wanted. They had an alternate menu if I didn't like the choices that they had. The rooms are large, comfortable and well lit. "
