Recent reviews of Memory Care in Orange County, NC
Home Place of Burlington
4.5

We chose Home Place of Burlington because of the informative tour as well as the fact that my mother knew several residents there. These residents provided a great recommendation. I really like Eventus, the medical staff. They are very informative.

The Reserve at Mills Farm in Apex, NC
4.0

It's quite expensive, especially for memory care. (One parent in independent living and one in memory care). Quality of care in memory care is hit or miss as well - some great staff and some not very good. I think the independent living is really good - great food - the dining room is like a restaurant with lots of variety and good quality. The apartments are well set up. The staff in independent living are all very friendly and seem to know everyone. It's very welcoming. We really like that my mother can walk over to memory care almost any time to visit him.

Carolina Reserve of Durham
4.8

My mom has been here for 6 months. Memory care. She's 91. The staff has been kind and caring. The facility isn't too big. About 50 residents I think. It's been a good experience all the way around. Memory care is difficult and they have done a really good job with my Mom.
