Questions families ask

Can I trust glowing online reviews of an assisted living facility in Durham, or should I check something official first?

Online reviews aren't part of North Carolina's regulatory oversight and can't substitute for it — the official sources are DHSR's Regulated Facilities search to confirm licensure and DHSR's ACLS Facility Inspections, Ratings and Penalties search (info.ncdhhs.gov/dhsr/acls/star/search.asp) to review actual inspection findings, corrective action history, and any penalties within the last 36 months. Reviews can supplement that picture but shouldn't replace checking the state's own compliance record.

Will NC Medicaid pay for the room-and-board cost of an assisted living community in Cary?

Not directly — North Carolina does not have a Medicaid HCBS waiver covering room and board in assisted living/adult care homes (there is no 'CAP/AL' equivalent). Instead, eligible low-income residents can receive State/County Special Assistance (SA), a state- and county-funded cash supplement toward room and board, and SA recipients automatically become eligible for Medicaid, which can then cover medical and personal care services layered on top.

What exactly does the CAP/DA Medicaid waiver cover for a parent aging in place in Apex?

The Community Alternatives Program for Disabled Adults (CAP/DA) is North Carolina's Medicaid 1915(c) home- and community-based services waiver for adults 18+ who need a nursing-facility level of care but want to remain at home. It covers up to 18 in-home and community-based services, including adult day health, in-home aide services, home modifications and equipment, meal preparation, respite care, personal emergency response systems, and consumer-directed care that lets the beneficiary hire and supervise their own caregiver.
