Where in NC is this memory care unit. I am considering one for my husband in Greensboro. Thank you.
Right now I am paying a home health aid who comes once a week. My husband puts up a fuss but she goes right ahead...and he thanks her when she is done.
I’m afraid it wasn’t in the NYC area. It was in NC. I was surprised at the number of residents at the AL and MC that were from the north. Apparently, the costs is much less in rural areas of NC. The place at the time was privately owned and small. They had little staff turnover. It was ideal. They gave us the Downton Abby welcome when we arrived. Director and staff standing at the entrance (outside) with smiles and a wheelchair . They never called me to complain of her behavior. They managed it. She was immediately happier there.
It’s been several years since my cousin died, so I don’t know their status now. I will PM you the name if you request it.
