Home›Neighborhoods›South Park

A historically Black neighborhood south of downtown built mainly in the 1930s-1950s, now seeing revitalization, with proximity to WakeMed's Raleigh campus.

Short answer

South Park is a neighborhood in Raleigh. Senior care serving it is licensed the same way as the rest of the city -- as an adult care home by North Carolina's Division of Health Service Regulation.

How families in South Park usually search

Neighborhood matters less than families expect, and more than communities admit. The practical test is not the map. It is whether the person who will visit most often will still be visiting in month eight.

What is specific to South Park

Residents of South Park 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.

Ongoing revitalization in this historically Black neighborhood has brought new attention to nearby senior care options along the WakeMed corridor.

Questions families ask

My mother lives in a nursing home in Franklin County -- which Ombudsman office should I contact?

Franklin County is not covered by the Central Pines Regional Council office that serves most of the Triangle. Instead, it falls under the Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments Ombudsman Program, reachable at 1-866-506-6223 (toll-free) or (252) 436-2050, with a mailing address of PO Box 709, Henderson, NC 27536.

Which counties does the Central Pines Regional Council Ombudsman office actually cover?

The Central Pines Regional Council (formerly Triangle J Council of Governments) Ombudsman office covers seven counties: Wake, Durham, Orange, Chatham, Johnston, Lee, and Moore. Harnett County, though geographically near the Triangle, falls under the Mid-Carolina Council of Governments region (with Cumberland and Sampson counties) instead, and Franklin County falls under the Kerr-Tar region.

What other services does the Central Pines Regional Council Area Agency on Aging provide besides the Ombudsman Program?

Beyond the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, Central Pines Regional Council's Area Agency on Aging offers Information and Referral services to help families find aging-related resources, private-pay Options Counseling, and a Veteran-Directed Service Program pilot for eligible veterans who want more control over their home-based care services.
