Situated on Providence Road in a car-dependent area, it’s equipped to serve individuals needing rehabilitation post-hospitalization, surgery, or other acute events, plus those needing longer-term nursing care. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, offering multiple routes for coverage.

The facility supports an extensive array of care services: skilled nursing, assisted living, hospice, palliative care, and respite care. This variety lets families find the right level of support in one location as care needs change. With 108 beds and an occupancy rate running at about 83 percent, the home serves a mix of short-term rehabilitation occupants and those in long-term care. The typical stay length is around 60 days, reflecting post-acute admissions and ongoing residents. Clinical care rests on a groundwork of person-centered planning, where a dedicated clinical team works with residents to develop individualized care plans focused on their unique needs and goals.

Nursing staffing includes a total of 3 hours 46 minutes per resident day, broken down among registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, licensed vocational nurses, and nurse aides. The location on Providence Road is moderately car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 20, so most errands and visits need a drive. However, the facility setting provides a contained atmosphere for residents and visiting family to spend time together.

Brookdale Carriage Club Providence II

5816 Old Providence Road Charlotte, Nc 28226, Charlotte, NC 28226
Overview of Brookdale Carriage Club Providence II

Brookdale Carriage Club Providence II is found on Old Providence Road in the southern part of Charlotte, North Carolina. This big home works as a place where old people can stay forever, which means that help with daily life and medical care are all offered in one spot. The area has a very low score for walking, so you should expect to use a car whenever you need to go to the store or see a doctor.

The part for people who need a lot of medical help is small with only 34 beds, and right now 27 of those beds are being used. For health needs, the home helps people get stronger after being sick and gives family members a break from taking care of their loved ones. Workers are there to help at all times of the day and night. Every building is easy to move through with a wheelchair and has a special button to push if there is a sudden problem.

You can find a pool outside, a room for exercise, a place to read books, and a small church right on the land. In the yard, the people living there can enjoy paths for walking, a garden, a spot for golf, and a small pond for catching fish. Rides to places, help with chores, a hair shop, and extra rooms for family to stay in are also provided, and everyone eats together like they are at a food shop; animals are allowed to live there too.

The main things that leaders look at in the records are how medicine is given, the plans for taking care of people, and the tools for stopping fires.

Living there without much help starts at $3,430 every month, but the price goes up if you need more help with your memory or your body. The reports show a small place with many fun things to do in a part of Charlotte where you must drive, but it has the good point of changing how it helps you as you get older.

The Parc at Sharon Amity

4025 N. Sharon Amity Road Charlotte, Nc 28205, Charlotte, NC 28205
Overview of The Parc at Sharon Amity

Sixty-four beds sit at 4025 N. Sharon Amity Road in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Parc at Sharon Amity operates as an assisted living and memory care community, with respite stays available when a family needs shorter-term coverage. The surrounding streets earn a Walk Score of 44, which lands in somewhat walkable territory. A handful of destinations are reachable on foot, but most errands here mean getting into a vehicle.

Occupancy runs at 81%, so the building is neither full nor sparsely populated. Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants handle resident care, and staffing coverage holds through the night rather than thinning after dinner. For residents living with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, secured living is part of the setup. That secured component is what gives the memory care designation something concrete behind it.

Meals happen in a restaurant-style dining room. There is a library, an entertainment room, and an outdoor common area for residents who want time outside the building. Transportation services run from the community, which carries real weight given how the neighborhood scores for walkability.

Inspection themes on record include medication management, care planning and documentation, and fire-safety systems. Emergency preparedness and resident rights and protections round out the reviewed areas.

Medicaid is accepted here. For families weighing what happens after private funds run down, that coverage pathway changes the arithmetic of a long stay. The Parc at Sharon Amity is built for older adults who need hands-on daily support, and for those whose memory loss calls for a secured environment with nursing staff present at every hour.

Mint Hill Senior Living

10830 Lawyers Glen Drive Charlotte, Nc 28227, Charlotte, NC 28227
Overview of Mint Hill Senior Living

Mint Hill Senior Living sits at 10830 Lawyers Glen Drive on Charlotte’s eastern edge in North Carolina. The community provides assisted living, and it also offers respite care and secured living arrangements. Walk Score for the surrounding area comes in at 30, described as somewhat walkable. Some errands may work on foot, though a car or the community’s transportation service will cover most trips.

Licensed capacity here is 82 beds. Seventeen residents currently live in the building, putting occupancy at 21 percent. Families should weigh that number for themselves. A lightly occupied building can mean quieter hallways and more staff availability per resident.

Staffing runs 24 hours, which means help is on hand overnight and not only during daytime shifts. Secured living serves residents who need a more contained setting for safety reasons. Respite care covers shorter stays, useful when a family caregiver needs a break or when someone is coming off a hospital stay.

Housekeeping and maintenance are handled by staff rather than falling to residents or family. Transportation is scheduled for appointments and errands. Dining is served restaurant-style. Common areas include a library, an entertainment room, and an outdoor space on the grounds.

The community accepts Medicaid, which shapes how families can plan for the cost of care over the long run. Inspection themes for this community have fallen into medication management, fire-safety systems, care planning and documentation, and dietary service. The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services reviews these areas across licensed assisted living communities. Taken with the capacity and staffing picture above, the record here gives families a defined set of factors to weigh.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Charlotte, NC

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in North Carolina?

Assisted living in North Carolina supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in North Carolina?

Assisted living in North Carolina is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does North Carolina Medicaid cover assisted living?

North Carolina Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including North Carolina) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 44 assisted living facilities in Charlotte, NC. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Charlotte, NC?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Charlotte, NC, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Charlotte, NC?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
