Home›Neighborhoods›Stonehenge

A mature North Raleigh community that includes established retirement and independent-living communities alongside recreational amenities.

Short answer

Stonehenge 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 Stonehenge 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 Stonehenge

Residents of Stonehenge 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.

Several established retirement and independent-living communities already operate within this North Raleigh neighborhood.

Questions families ask

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.

Does a Special Care Unit disclosure requirement apply to every dementia unit in the Triangle, or only some facilities?

The Special Care Unit disclosure requirement under G.S. 131D-8 applies to any licensed adult care home that operates, markets, or advertises a distinct unit or program for residents with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia (or mental health/developmental disability population); a facility that simply serves individual residents with dementia within its general population without designating a special unit is not required to file the SCU disclosure. This distinction is why some Triangle memory-care marketing language should prompt families to specifically ask whether an SCU disclosure has been filed.
