The 20 Best Nursing Home in North Carolina

"My mom fell in July and broke her hip. By God’s grace and provision we were able to get a spot for her at Countryside Manor. I was so thrilled because it was only about 7 minutes from my house. I have never felt so easy leaving my mom in their care. They were so professional yet so caring and loving. I cannot say one thing negative about this place and the people who work there. They have my mom the upmost best care. I would more than highly recommend this place to take care of your love ones. My mom and I are forever grateful." - Teresa… Read more

"My mom moved in the the assisted living facility when it opened in June 2025. Her room and the overall accommodations are very nice. The direct care staff are friendly and provide excellent care. Food is also very good. Our biggest problem as been multiple price increases including a level of care re-assessment after 30 days which increased monthly cost by nearly $2000. This was after a thorough assessment prior to moving in. In addition, the facility has increased my mom's rates on both level of care and base rate after the new year, resulting in an additional $2000/mo. I understand costs associated with caring for our loved ones, but had we known that our "rent" would increase by $4000/ mo in just 6 months, we would have certainly looked at alternative options. I feel they were not completely open and honest with us prior to agreeing to move in." - Kyle… Read more

"My wife and I have been at Grace Ridge for about five years. Before we moved here, I did a lot of research on the internet and networking with friends. We visited several communities before selecting Grace Ridge. Our experience here has proven that we chose wisely. It is hard to describe all that the caring staff and administration here did for us during the pandemic. Some of the major things to ensure our health and safety including additional, no-cost meals delivered at no cost to residential units for more than 6 months of the lock-down, facilitating grocery delivery through forming a commissary stocked from their grocery supplier, virtual exercise classes and events, and so much more. The facilities have recently had a major renovation with more to come. The area is beautiful with mountains all around us and the beach only a 4-hour drive away. Next to marrying my wife, moving here was the best decision I ever made." - Bob… Read more

"I was released today from the Bradley Creek health center at Carolina Bay to my apartment in Porters Neck North Carolina. I have been in Bradley Creek for 30 days for rehab for a broken femur corrected by surgery with a rod put in my leg when I arrived at Bradley Creek from the hospital I had no idea that I would ever walk again that I would ever be able to have anyone touch my leg again or be independent again or do anything again. The people everyone from the kitchen crew to the physical therapist to the administrators give them all a five. They saw to it through an integrated system of care which everyone working there knows about every patient in the building and everything is happening and everything that needs to be done and everything they eat and everything they do.. they will not give up on you. So don't think you can go down there and horse around these people are serious. Thank God that they were there for me they gave me my life back and so I say thank you guys." - Alice… Read more

"I would like to sincerely express my appreciation and gratitude for the excellent care I received from everyone at Olde Knox Commons Skilled Nursing Facility. Thank you isn’t enough, I wish I could send a care package of extra energy, strength, love, and compassion to each one of the dedicated heroes at OKC. I wish that I could mention each staff member who has provided care for my mother by name, but I am not there onsite to know everyone by name.

"This facility does as little as possible when it comes to caring for their patients. The traveling nurses were great, but rarely on duty. If you care about your loved one, don’t bring them to Raleigh Rehabilitation Center. Their employees steal from you and the administration says one thing and does another. I will say the therapists there were good. Speaking from my experience, I wouldn’t chance it even if you could be there everyday to check in on your loved one." - Julie… Read more
