Memory care is secured, dementia-specific assisted living. North Carolina requires a Special Care Unit disclosure statement under G.S. 131D-8 -- not a separate license or certification -- before a community can market a secured memory care unit.
We list 3 verified memory care options serving the Midtown area.
What to watch for with memory care near Midtown
- Ask to see the community's current Special Care Unit disclosure statement, by name.
- Ask specifically about wandering and exit-seeking. Secured courtyards, door alarms and staffing patterns vary far more than brochures suggest.

Midtown specifically
Residents of Midtown evaluating senior care most often start with providers elsewhere in Raleigh, since neighborhood-level licensed communities are uneven across the city -- some neighborhoods have several, others none.
Visit twice, at different hours
A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised.
Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.
