Assisted Living
The place has been recently painted, the people are very nice, it feels personal because everyone knows your name, but the meals are lacking. Food is my mother’s main complaint. Most things are prepackaged, canned, processed, sugary or unappetizing. The facility is not to capacity, and so they reduced the hours of some workers. My mother has had to wait quite awhile for someone to come help her. No place is perfect for everyone, but my mom seems to like it there.
We were very pleased how Carteret Landing served my Grandmother. We rally like the family atmosphere and really took time with my grandmother and her mobility issues. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we had.
The staff are very friendly and very adamant about their pandemic protocols. I would recommend the community to others. My friend one has not complained about the food. They have stopped activities due to the pandemic.
