North Carolina licenses these communities as adult care homes under Chapter 131D, one license type statewide, with no acuity tiering.

Stonehenge specifically

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.

The question about money nobody asks early enough

Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds a Medicaid waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of communities do not participate at all, which converts a funding problem into a forced move at the worst possible moment.

Questions families ask

My wife is in assisted living in Cary but her dementia has progressed — does she need to move to memory care?

If she's showing signs like wandering, exit-seeking, or needing more supervision than the general assisted living staff can safely provide, ask the facility directly whether they have a licensed Special Care Unit (SCU) on-site or whether a transfer to a memory-care-designated community is recommended. In North Carolina, a Special Care Unit is a distinct designation added to a facility's adult care home license, requiring a specific state-approved disclosure statement about staffing, programming, and physical safety features — ask to see that disclosure before deciding. If you're the community spouse and finances are a concern, know that Medicaid rules protect a minimum monthly income allowance for you even if she eventually needs Medicaid-covered nursing facility care.

How do we compare two assisted living communities in Cary and Wake Forest before deciding for my aunt?

Look up both communities' inspection history and any penalties on NC DHSR's Adult Care Home Facility Inspections, Ratings and Penalties search tool before touring, since this state-specific rating reflects actual compliance history rather than marketing claims. During tours, ask each facility directly about staff-to-resident ratios at night, whether they hold a Special Care Unit license if memory care might be needed later, and what triggers a rate increase or involuntary discharge. Compare total monthly cost including any levels-of-care add-ons, not just the advertised base rate, since Cary and Wake Forest communities can price these very differently.

My mother with dementia keeps trying to leave the house in Garner — what safety options exist besides moving her?

Wandering and exit-seeking behavior is a recognized safety risk that often signals it's time to consider additional home safety measures — door alarms, a medical alert system with GPS, and possibly a home health aide for supervised hours — before or instead of an immediate move. If safety can't be reliably managed at home, ask about adult care homes with a licensed Special Care Unit, which are specifically required to have secured entrances and dementia-trained staff under North Carolina's SCU disclosure rules. In an active emergency where she has left the home and is missing, call 911 immediately rather than waiting.
