The Magnolia Reviews

Lindsay, Administrator
Music is easily the heartbeat of our home, and we love incorporating everything from worship songs and Catholic hymns to oldies and Frank Sinatra, often watching our residents joyfully play "air piano" and "air drums" or join in on lively sing-alongs with our guest guitarist. When we aren't enjoying music, you'll find us making the most of the outdoors in our beautiful backyard—which features a walking path, rose garden, and waist-high garden beds for easy planting—where we love to host fresh-air chair yoga. We also keep life adventurous through fun outings like drive-thru safari trips and heartwarming intergenerational activities where visiting children play balloon ball, make art, and even share cultural exchanges like teaching us Mandarin. Beyond caring for our residents, supporting our families is deeply important to me; we host a monthly virtual Caregiver Support Group on Zoom in partnership with the Alzheimer's Association, and this October, we are thrilled to host a free, public Brain Health Lecture Series with the Shepherd Center of Charlotte to share expert insights on dementia and brain-healthy living.

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.
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 citations, 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.
