Response from Morningside of Raleigh
October 21, 2024Thank you for your kind words about Morningside of Raleigh! We're delighted to hear that your dad is acclimating well. It's not uncommon for residents to take their time getting involved in activities, but we're here to support him whenever he's ready. If there’s anything specific we can do to encourage his participation or enhance his experience, please let us know. We appreciate your feedback!
My brother has been in Morningside Memory Care for about 2 months. I found them thru A Place for Mom, which I had a wonderful experience with. My brother is 83 years old & has lived by himself for many years. It took him a little while to settle in, but seems to feel more “at home” now. I visit 2 - 3 times a week & staff is always friendly & seems to be vey caring. He is able to function some on his own, but needs help and/or reminders at times. I have had met with Director a couple of times to share some concerns I had but they have always showed appreciation to me for bringing it to their attention. They have a new director that has fresh ideals for activities, especially for the men, since most of the indoor activities are geared more for the women than for the men. I have been over all satisfied with Morningside, but would visit often to make sure your loved one is being well taken of, no matter where they may go.

September 6, 2024Thank you, Iva, for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear your brother is settling in and that you alway feel welcomed by our caring team. We appreciate your feedback and are excited about the fresh ideas to more fully engage some of our male residents. Your insights help us continue to provide the best care for your brother and we always love to see you around our community.
Areas they could improve on would be - more attention to bathing, dressing and brushing of the teeth. However, we would recommend this community to other families for levels 5, 6 and 7.

She was loved and cared for wonderfully by the folks at Morningside and through The Transitions Hospice program during her end of life journey. Angels on earth...all of them! They were amazing from the time mom arrived as a resident until her passing.

April 16, 2024Janet, thank you for this wonderful, heartfelt review. Providing compassionate care to our residents and their families, especially during the end-of-life journey, is a privilege and a responsibility we take very seriously. We're deeply honored to have been a part of your mother's life and to have provided support during her entire time with us.
Morningside is a bright and friendly place. My parents are still having some issues adjusting but the staff really seem to care. There have been some small hiccups along the way but all problems have been resolved immediately.

April 14, 2024Thanks for taking the time to share your experience Pam. We appreciate your compliments for our team and how they have been going the extra mile to help your parents get adjusted to life at Morningside -- and how they have quickly resolved any issues you've mentioned to them. We are honored your parents call Morningside of Raleigh their home and are committed to working with them and you to ensure they get fully acclimated to life here.
I feel very comfortable with the facility and staff. I tend to be quite nervous in many situations, but the staff seems to be understanding of that and makes an effort to put me at ease. Also, the facility has a relaxing atmosphere. [Name removed] was great and made the paperwork as painless as possible. I am a 'family' of one (no siblings or spouse/children) and he understood how that could make me feel nervous and worked with me keeping it in consideration. Since my mom can still pick up when I am ill at ease and reacts badly to it, this is important and she seems to be more comfortable than at the previous facility. The move-in was a bit bumpy, which is usually the case, but the last week of holidays complicated pre- move in procedures. But everything worked out. Small families may need to get lifting assistance for the physical part from friends, etc. I got a transport service for Mom's trip since she is in a wheelchair. She gets excited about riding, but it can be quite difficult to transport her. Mom really enjoys the food and everything I have tasted has been first-rate. The rooms have individual temperature control and a full private shower and bath, amenities that were missing at the previous facility. The temperature is important because Mom has always been cold-natured and now it is even more of a concern. So she can always go to her room to warm up, if need be. I would definitely recommend Morningside to families seeking memory care for their loved one(s). The layout of the building is secure for memory care but also visitor - friendly since it is on a different floor and the only way in is the elevator. This means you don't have to wait outside to be let in like most places, but it is secure. And I am looking forward to the Valentine's Day party for residents and families!

February 15, 2024Thanks for your review Jean. It was wonderful to read your thoughts on how easy our team was to work with, and that they were able to put you at ease over the decision to move your mom to Morningside of Raleigh. We were glad to read that she has settled into life here, that she loves the food, and that our individual temperature controls are helping to keep her warm and comfortable. We look forward to seeing you at all our special events and appreciate your recommendation.
I have an on going battle with the lady who does book keeping. What they invoice is incorrect and frustrating. It's gotten to the point that I've looked at other places to move mom. I will say that The nursing staff seem to be very friendly. Mom really likes her room.

I was talked into paying up front to get a rate that would not change in the future. This included a fee for repainting the room after she left. Before she could move in, a room opened up in a facility near our home that would save me over an hour of travel time on each visit. They refused to refund any of the money including the fee for fixing up after she left.

December 13, 2023Hi -- I am the Executive Director and would welcome the chance to speak with you. We have looked through our records and are not aware of any situation that matches your description. Please contact me at the community at your earliest convenience as I would like to get to the bottom of this. I hope we are able to connect soon.
Our family had an in person tour with Morningside of Raleigh and it would of been unsafe for her. Horrible bathrooms, but the residents did look healthy and were actively participating in what was going on while I was there. They did remove the carpeting which means no padding in case of a fall.

October 13, 2023I am the Executive Director and was sorry to read you had some concerns when you visited us. I would like to hear more about your thoughts, and ask that you give me a call at your earliest convenience so we can address those concerns.
The facility itself is set up to be very welcoming immediately when you walk in. Light, bright and comfortable. The staff, particularly [name removed] was extremely helpful in making the move from New York to North Carolina happen for Mom in the most seamless ways possible. The staff has welcomed my 100 year old mom with open arms.

April 6, 2023Thanks for your feedback Phil, and we appreciate your recommendation. We are thrilled to read that you found our community to be in a great location and offering great value. It was also wonderful to hear that your mom was welcomed warmly and that our communication with you has been excellent. It is our honor to have your mom call Morningside of Raleigh her home.
I'll give a 5 to all except activities, not because I don't think it's deserved but because of my husband's condition he was not able to participate in any so I can't judge it. All the staff, nursing, administrative, meals and maintenance are so friendly and caring. I really appreciate the care and attention my husband received. All these things make the value of cost worth it. One notable thing, there were fresh flowers every day! Morningside staff deserve the recognition. One thing: the support I received during the illness and passing of my husband was priceless.
