Farmwood Senior Living sits at 7301 Canterway Dr in Mint Hill, North Carolina, and you'll see right away this is a small, private, 6-bed care home, so there's a family feel here with a much quieter and calmer atmosphere than you'd find in bigger places, and owner-director K.C. stays involved, making sure everyone gets personalized attention in a real home. Residents live in fully-furnished bedrooms, spend time in comfortable common rooms, and can walk out back to the yard and the big deck, which often draws birds to the feeders and gives people a peaceful place to sit or visit with others, while lawns, gardens, and a play area next to the Angel Garden give folks more to enjoy outside, and there are ramps, so wheelchairs get out there easily too. You'll find all levels of senior care-independent living with less worry about chores thanks to maintenance-free services and social events, assisted living that covers daily help like dressing, bathing, medication reminders, laundry, and meals, plus board and care for those needing extra support, memory care programs for Alzheimer's and dementia that keep residents safe, involved, and active with special games and classes, and skilled nursing on hand for more complex needs, including wound care and full medical help round-the-clock.
People here eat meals that suit their tastes and needs, picking from options at any time, with room service ready if someone would rather eat in private, and there's always something going on-a beautician on site, devotional gatherings, art and cooking classes, gardening club, stretching classes, music, live shows, outings, and happy hour-so it's busy, but laid-back too, and visiting family can feel right at home in the living room or on the deck. Farmwood offers short-term and respite stays for folks who need a safe place for a little while, whether that's after surgery or just so their regular caregivers get a rest, and if someone wants to age in place, that's possible too, even at the end of life, with the home's staff-CNAs, registered nurses, and others-providing continuous and attentive care that covers medical needs, medication management, incontinence and toileting care, transportation to appointments, and companionship so nobody feels left out.
The building's got safety features like a sprinkler system, standby generator for power outages, wheelchair-accessible showers, and strong exterior lighting, and it sits in a peaceful spot close to other medical services. Interiors have updated touches, there's a cozy kitchen and dining spot, and cable TV, Wi-Fi, fireplaces, and handicap accessibility are all included, so comfort comes first. Staff keep the ratio low-about one to every six residents, sometimes even better-so there's always someone nearby to lend a hand, and everyone passes background checks and is trained in CPR. Farmwood Senior Living began under its new name in July 2021, and since then, it's been an option for older folks who'd rather live in a calm, home-like setting, whether they need a little help or a lot, and the services extend to in-home care too if someone wants to stay in their own place, with support for meal prep, daily routines, and companionship, even dementia care. Monthly wellness checks are provided by a doctor, and with many tailored services, Farmwood has something for seniors who value a quieter, more personal living space where dignity, safety, comfort, and community matter.
