Overview of The Pavilion Health Center at Brightmore
Situated within the scenic campus of Brightmore of South Charlotte, The Pavilion Health Center offers a comprehensive range of care services, ensuring a seamless continuum of care for individuals. Whether in need of short-term rehabilitation, long-term living, outpatient therapy, hospice care, palliative care, or respite care, The Pavilion is equipped to meet diverse healthcare needs.
Upon arrival, residents are warmly welcomed by a dedicated clinical team. This compassionate team collaborates with individuals to develop personalized care plans that prioritize their unique needs and goals. By focusing on person-centered care, The Pavilion aims to support residents in regaining skills and reducing the likelihood of hospital readmissions. In addition to rehabilitation services, the center provides access to a variety of medical services, addresses secondary conditions, and facilitates comprehensive treatment plans.
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.

The community is equipped with a fireside bistro, a large community hall, a fitness center, an art studio, a library, and serene outdoor verandas, making it an enticing option for those looking to live independently in their golden years.

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 43 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.
