The Cary market specifically

One of the wealthiest and fastest-growing Wake County towns, Cary has a large stock of 55+ active-adult communities and is served by WakeMed Cary Hospital and Duke Health outpatient facilities along the US-1/I-40 corridor.

Families in Cary often compare its communities against Raleigh's North Hills corridor a few miles east, since both cover a similar price tier and both are inside WakeMed and Duke Health's service areas.

You can check any facility's record free. NC DHSR's Regulated Facilities search shows license status; its ACLS tool shows inspection history and penalties. Read the full explanation →

Questions families ask

How many residents can a licensed family care home in Garner have?

A family care home in North Carolina is licensed for 2 to 6 unrelated residents. It operates under the same Chapter 131D and 10A NCAC 13F framework as larger adult care homes but is treated as a distinct residential-scale option within that same license category, not a separate license type.

My mother has Alzheimer's — what should a Special Care Unit disclosure statement at a Holly Springs facility actually tell me?

The disclosure statement required under G.S. 131D-8 and 10A NCAC 13F .1300–.1303 must describe the unit's care philosophy, dementia-specific staff training, physical design and security features, admission/discharge criteria, and the specialized programming or activities offered — DHSR publishes the required content on its Special Care Unit disclosure page. It is a mandatory filing, not a marketing document, and prospective families are entitled to review it before or during admission.

If I suspect neglect at an adult care home in Morrisville, do I call DHSR or Adult Protective Services?

Either — DHSR's Complaint Intake Unit (1-800-624-3004 or 919-855-4500) accepts complaints about licensed facilities and often forwards conditions-of-care concerns to the local county DSS, while Wake County's Adult Protective Services (919-212-7264) directly investigates suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of an individual resident. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 first.

Which Long-Term Care Ombudsman office covers a nursing home or adult care home complaint in Wake County?

Wake, Durham, Orange, Chatham, Johnston, Lee, and Moore counties are served by the Central Pines Regional Council (formerly Triangle J Council of Governments) Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, reachable at 1-800-310-9777. The Ombudsman advocates for residents of nursing homes, adult care homes, and family care homes and investigates and resolves resident-rights complaints, operating under the NC Division of Aging and Adult Services.
