Goldsboro Assisted Living and Alzheimer's Care sits at 2201 Royale Ave in Goldsboro, NC, nestled in a residential area with easy access to medical support, and offers both assisted living and Alzheimer's care services with a special focus on people with dementia and those who need help with daily living. The place has both assisted living spaces and a secured Alzheimer's Unit, designed only for people with Alzheimer's disease or related memory issues, so residents can move around safely in a protected environment while staff is always available. Residents get help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management, and if someone needs a little more support, like help with eating or a 1-person transfer, trained staff or personal aides are available 24 hours a day. The care team includes a Registered Nurse, Resident Care Coordinator, Special Care Unit Coordinator, supervisors, and Certified Nursing Assistants, all trained in memory care techniques and working day and night to make sure everyone's needs are met, with state-regulated staffing ratios and regular training from experts.
You'll find cozy common spaces like sitting rooms, activity spaces, TV rooms, and comfortable semi-private studios with private bathrooms, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and some have kitchenettes, all with wheelchair accessibility and an emergency call system in place, which is pretty important for folks who may need quick help. Residents can use the recreation room, movie theater, enclosed courtyards, gazebo, walking paths, and gardens, along with a beauty shop for haircuts and barber services, so there's plenty of amenities to keep daily life pleasant. The community is pet-friendly, so cats and dogs are welcome, and there's an active schedule with exercises, field trips, trips to appointments, group game nights, music groups, movie nights, arts and crafts, and other activities for different interests, including a mental wellness program and spiritual services on-site for those who want it. The dining room serves meals restaurant-style, with a chef preparing options for residents' dietary needs, like diabetes and allergy-sensitive diets, and staff offer a special feeding program for residents who need to be prompted to eat and to prevent weight loss.
The Goldsboro Assisted Living and Alzheimer's Care facility puts a strong focus on dignity and keeping people as independent as possible while also making things safe and comfortable, balancing engagement and freedom with security features on the Alzheimer's Unit, where folks with memory loss can enjoy open spaces without worrying about wandering away. Housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and linen services are provided, and there are community-sponsored activities, move-in coordination, transportation, parking, and financial advice for residents and their families, including help with VA benefits and cost assistance programs. Medical services include medication management, in-house skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and mental health care, with nurses and therapists coming for regular visits. The staff keeps families in the loop about residents' health and wellness, and the building uses walkie-talkie devices and secured doors for added safety. With its small, home-like atmosphere, organized activities, secure outdoor spaces, and dedicated Alzheimer's care team, Goldsboro Assisted Living and Alzheimer's Care tries to meet the unique needs of each senior, aiming to help residents stay at their highest level of function, no matter what memory or physical challenges they face, and to provide a peaceful, supportive environment where everyone feels understood and respected.
