What to watch for with in-home care near Oakwood

  • Medicare-covered home health is intermittent and skilled — nursing visits, physical therapy — not a caregiver who stays with your parent.

Questions families ask

Is a 'Special Care Unit' designation in a Cary memory care facility the same as a state quality certification?

No — a Special Care Unit designation under G.S. 131D-8 and 10A NCAC 13F .1300 is a disclosure and approval process layered onto a facility's existing adult care home license, requiring the facility to file specific information about its dementia-care program, not a separate quality certification or endorsement of care quality by the state. Families should treat the disclosure statement as required transparency, not a state seal of approval.

How do I confirm the CMS Five-Star rating for a Raleigh-area nursing home before touring it?

Search the facility by name or ZIP code on Medicare's Care Compare tool (medicare.gov/care-compare), which publishes the federal CMS Five-Star Quality Rating combining health inspection results, staffing data, and quality measures into an overall score and three component scores. This rating applies only to Medicare/Medicaid-certified nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities), not to assisted living or adult care homes.

What's the difference between reporting a licensing problem and reporting resident abuse at a facility in Clayton?

A licensing problem (unsafe conditions, inadequate staffing, rule violations) is reported to DHSR's Complaint Intake Unit at 1-800-624-3004 or 919-855-4500, which can investigate and cite the facility under Chapter 131D. Suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of a specific resident is reported to Johnston County's Adult Protective Services through the county Department of Social Services, since APS in NC is administered county-by-county, not through a single state hotline.
