    Lovely atmosphere marred by mismanagement

    I loved the warm, home-like setting - beautiful grounds, small-house feel, excellent programs, attentive and compassionate caregivers with an impressive caregiver-to-resident ratio that felt ideal for dementia care. But my experience was undermined by unprofessional organization: rude staff/administrator on the phone, missed medications/privacy/HIPAA lapses, broken promises and inconsistent communication, and staffing gaps - especially for the price. I'd visit to see the lovely atmosphere firsthand, but be cautious and ask pointed questions about meds, privacy, staffing, and written policies.

    About LiveWell @ Duke Forest

    LiveWell Assisted Living is deeply rooted in a care philosophy that views aging not as a period of decline, but as a unique and precious opportunity for discovery, growth, and restorative experiences. Each day at LiveWell is seen as a gift, and the devoted team works to ensure that every moment is filled with joy, encouragement, and well-being for both residents and clients. LiveWell’s programs span memory care, in-home care, and assisted living, with each service tailored to the individual’s stage and needs. This approach allows every resident to enjoy a personalized experience, enhancing both independence and social interaction within the close-knit community.

    The care model at LiveWell is distinctly shaped by the belief that “Smaller is Better for the Elderly.” With a maximum of six residents per home, the environment is intentionally intimate, ensuring a true sense of belonging and individualized attention from staff. The staff-to-resident ratio is thoughtfully structured—one staff member for every three residents during waking hours, reflecting a commitment to high-touch care and close supervision. Overnight, an awake staff member is always present, providing families with reassurance and residents with continuous support. The result is a nurturing setting designed to foster meaningful relationships, continuity of care, and a superior quality of life.

    LiveWell embraces an evolved, neighborhood-based model for long-term care, operating licensed 24/7 assisted living and memory care residences within upscale, residential homes. This model enables residents to age in place amidst familiar surroundings, drawing upon the warmth and comfort of a true home environment rather than institutional settings. The care teams prioritize seamless transitions for new residents—whether moving from in-home support or from the wider community—with LiveWell’s caregivers providing not only physical assistance but also emotional support throughout each step. This continuity of care is a hallmark of the LiveWell approach, bridging in-home and residential services to offer stability and trust.

    At the heart of LiveWell’s mission is a dedication to providing impactful outcomes that minimize disruption in the lives of senior adults and their families. The team is solution-oriented, focused on planning, coordination, communication, and execution to anticipate and meet the changing needs of each individual. Programs and activities at LiveWell are guided by current research on aging, Alzheimer’s, and dementia, ensuring best practices in promoting healthy bodies, minds, and spirits. LiveWell’s commitment to excellence is evident in every interaction, from daily caregiving to the creation of an environment where elders can celebrate life’s moments, engage in restorative activities, and thrive in comfort and dignity.
