Arbor Acres United Methodist Retirement Community operates as a memory care facility in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, under Methodist Church affiliation. The facility is not currently CMS-certified for Medicare or Medicaid. Bert Sanders has served as Healthcare Administrator since 2024. Walk score of 38 reflects somewhat walkable neighborhood access, though most resident errands and outings require transportation.
The community provides skilled nursing care, memory care, rehabilitation services, and respite care. The facility’s stated philosophy emphasizes hospitality, stress-free lifestyle, and support for purposeful living within a residential, resort-style environment.
Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants staff the facility. Programming includes Fountain Hill Home Care and arts activities designed for cognitive support and resident engagement. Amenities encompass housekeeping, physical therapy, organized social events, 24-hour concierge service, hair salon, library access, and restaurant-style dining.
The facility does not participate in CMS certification. Residents access the facility through private pay arrangements and potentially through North Carolina’s financial assistance programs including Community Alternatives Program for Disabled Adults, Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), and State/County Special Assistance programs, though direct facility-level participation in these programs is not confirmed.
The Methodist Church affiliation may indicate nonprofit status and long-standing community presence.
Family evaluation of Arbor Acres necessarily relies on in-person facility visits, direct interviews with current residents and family members, review of individual care agreements and service specifications, and assessment of observed staff-resident interactions and physical environment conditions rather than comparative public benchmarking.
Arbor Acres presents itself as a specialized memory care community emphasizing lifestyle amenities and personalized support.
