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.

What to watch for with memory care near Oakwood

Oakwood specifically

Residents of Oakwood 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.

What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.

Ask for a blank copy to take home before you are asked to sign anything.

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

My parents live in Louisburg — is the Long-Term Care Ombudsman number the same as in Raleigh?

No. Franklin County (where Louisburg is the county seat) is part of the Raleigh metro area but is covered by a different Ombudsman region — the Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments, at (252) 436-2050 or toll-free 1-866-506-6223 — rather than the Central Pines/Triangle J region that covers Wake, Durham, Orange, Chatham, Johnston, Lee, and Moore counties.

Which Ombudsman region covers a facility in Lillington or Dunn (Harnett County)?

Harnett County — including Lillington and Dunn — falls under the Mid-Carolina Council of Governments Ombudsman region, which also covers Cumberland and Sampson counties, rather than the Central Pines/Triangle J region that serves Wake, Durham, Orange, Chatham, Johnston, Lee, and Moore counties.

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.
