Overview of Woodland Terrace

The 84-bed Arboretum at Woodland Terrace, located in Cary at 300 Kildaire Woods Dr, Wake County, North Carolina, provides specialized memory care for residents with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Executive Director Amanda Klobuchar oversees the specialized memory care community, which has maintained an active license throughout 27 years of continuous operation.

All 19 inspections since 2015 documented 43 deficiencies with no fines; deficiency rates of 3.9 per year are 7% better than North Carolina’s average. Most significantly, a March 2024 complaint investigation substantiated resident abuse; a staff member was terminated and criminally charged, though witnesses failed to intervene or report. January 2024 inspections cited food safety, resident screening, and tuberculosis testing deficiencies. The June 2025 follow-up confirmed all prior deficiencies had been corrected, with registered nurses providing 1 hour of care per resident daily, 71% above the state average.

Signature programming at the Arboretum includes the Art of Living Well®, Music & Memory (a specialized dementia-focused therapeutic approach), aquatics, and gardening activities designed to promote engagement and well-being. Residents benefit from comprehensive medication management, personal care assistance, three daily meals plus snacks, laundry and housekeeping services, scheduled transportation, recreational day trips, and planned social and educational events.

Pets are welcomed, and the facility’s 3-story building includes studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans ranging from 492 to 1,650 square feet.

The facility’s Woodland Terrace location carries a walk score of 55, indicating moderate walkability with some nearby amenities accessible on foot.

Memory care in a smaller, intimate setting with strong nursing presence characterizes The Arboretum at Woodland Terrace; its 39% occupancy reflects demand below the North Carolina state average of 76.4%.
