Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. North Carolina licenses these communities as adult care homes under Chapter 131D, one license type statewide, with no acuity tiering.

South Park specifically
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.
Who is actually on shift
Ask how many caregivers and med aides are on the floor at 3 a.m., not the building-wide daytime ratio. Ask what happens when someone calls in sick, and whether the community uses agency staff to fill gaps.
Ask how long the administrator has been in post. Turnover at the top is one of the better predictors of turnover below it.
