|
City and state of the facility. Used for mapping and state-average comparisons.
|
Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
|
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
|
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
|
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
|
Reported or derived occupancy for the facility—typically how fully licensed capacity is utilized. Compare across peers in the same market.
|
Better Business Bureau grade for the operating company. Reflects complaint handling and business practices, not clinical care quality.
|
NC DHSR Star Rating (0–4 stars). Issued by North Carolina's Division of Health Service Regulation based on annual facility inspections. Stars reflect overall compliance with state health and safety rules - 4 stars requires scores of 100+ on two consecutive annual inspections. Ratings can change between inspections if new violations or licensure actions occur.
|
DHSR Quality Score (/200). Each annual inspection starts at a base of 100 points. Facilities earn demerit points for violations and citations, and merit points for correcting issues, maintaining resident/family councils, sprinkler systems, and other quality programs. The "/200" display reflects the two most recent annual inspections combined - giving a longer-term view of compliance trends rather than a single snapshot.
|
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.
|
Share of inspections that resulted in deficiencies, expressed as a percentage of total inspections in the window.
|
Housing or bed configuration options (e.g. studio, shared), often from facility-reported amenities and licensing details.

Located in Charlotte, North Carolina, Peak Resources Charlotte is an assisted living and nursing home community offering both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care services.
With 142 beds, it is a sizable facility dedicated to providing quality care to its residents. The community proudly participates in Medicare and Medicaid, ensuring that residents have access to comprehensive healthcare services.
TerraBella Harrisburg provides assisted living and memory care in Harrisburg, NC. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while residents keep their own apartments.
Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, so TerraBella Harrisburg may be a good fit for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia who needs that level of structure. The community has 96 beds, and pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet when moving into the community.
At six beds, Blissful Living Senior Care, INC. is a residential care home rather than a traditional assisted living facility. That distinction matters: the Silverwood neighborhood address on Robinson Church Road in Charlotte puts residents in a house-scale setting in Mecklenburg County, about 8.5 miles from the city center. The neighborhood scores a 5 on the Walk Score scale, so a car is required for virtually any errand or outing outside the home.
The care model covers more ground than the size might suggest. Assisted living is the baseline, and the home also supports hospice care, memory care, and respite stays, so residents with more complex or shifting needs don’t necessarily have to move. Licensed nurses and CNAs provide round-the-clock coverage. The administrator, Martin Anuonye, is a licensed nurse himself, which means clinical oversight comes from the top. Angela Ezekwe-Anuonye serves as Vice President.
State inspections have generally centered on medication management, documentation and care planning, and staffing qualifications as recurring areas of attention.
For families who have looked at larger assisted living communities and found them impersonal, a six-bed home with licensed nursing on staff around the clock and the capacity to support hospice and memory care through end of life represents a meaningfully different option. That’s what Blissful Living is built to be.
Mint Hill Senior Living in Charlotte, North Carolina, delivers assisted living support and short-term respite care. Assisted living services focus on essential routine tasks like bathing, dressing, and managing medications.

This 82-bed community features structured indoor spaces, including a library, an entertainment room, and a restaurant-style dining setup for shared meals. Mobility around the broader area relies heavily on vehicles, as reflected by a walk score of 30, though the property supplies scheduled transportation for off-site trips.
Families looking for long-term daily help or short-term relief care can reach out to Mint Hill Senior Living for additional details on accommodations.

The Sharon at SouthPark is a continuing care retirement community in Charlotte, NC, offering independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.
Because several care levels are available, a resident whose needs grow can move to a different level of care without leaving the community or starting over socially. The community has 19 beds, making it a smaller setting that may be a good fit for someone who prefers a place where staff and residents can get to know each other.
Housing options include studios, one-bedroom residences, and two-bedroom residences. A studio is a single private space, while a two-bedroom can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion.
The community is in the Beverly Woods neighborhood, where a Walk Score of 49 out of 100 indicates a car-dependent setting and most errands require a car or a ride. Total nurse staffing is 11 hours and 26 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nurse staffing time assigned per resident. Medicare and private pay are accepted, and pets are allowed.

In a residential neighborhood near Ballantyne and Pineville in Charlotte, North Carolina, CoHomes Boutique Senior Living runs an assisted living home built around a deliberately small idea: a maximum of six residents in a single-story house. The home has been operating for six years, and the area is car-dependent (Walk Score 16), so getting anywhere means driving. Charlotte Sanford leads the operation as President and CEO.
The care here runs through a licensed home care agency staffing the home around the clock. That covers the daily essentials, bathing, grooming, dressing, transferring, plus incontinence care, diabetic care, blood pressure monitoring, and medication reminders. The home also takes residents with mild cognitive decline and early-stage dementia, which not every small home does, and adds companionship and safety supervision, including the stretch right after a hospital stay.
Rooms are furnished, private or semi-private, and meals are home-cooked around what residents actually like and need to eat. Practical pieces are covered too: a hospital bed available for rent, walk-in showers, transportation management for appointments. On safety, there’s an emergency response system with pendants and call buttons, security cameras in shared areas, and door sensor alarms.
CoHomes Boutique Senior Living is really built around one premise, that some seniors do better in a small house with a handful of housemates than in a large facility. For residents who want hands-on personal care and early-stage memory support in something that feels like a home rather than an institution, that small scale is the entire point.
Every community above is evaluated across six weighted categories using public data including state inspection records, review platforms, BBB profiles, and operator-published materials. Rank badges compare each community against others offering the same care type in the same state — never against a different care type.
The single largest share of every ranking. Aggregated review sentiment and volume from major platforms — the closest signal to real resident experience.
State inspection records, citations, and complaint visits. We weight per-inspection rates more heavily than raw counts.
Communities that publish high-quality visuals give families a real preview. No photos or tours = a negative transparency signal.
Site quality and whether the operator publishes basic accountability information — staff names, contact details, ownership.
Operational signals indicating whether a community is well-run and meeting demand.
Walkability and pricing transparency. Walk Score is weighted higher for Independent Living than for Memory Care, where most residents do not leave unaccompanied.
We help families find affordable senior communities and unlock same day discounts, Medicaid, and Medicare options tailored to your needs.

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.
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.
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.
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.
