Oak Park Retirement in Salisbury, NC
4.8

The Oak Park Retirement community is a tremendous facility! The staff members that work there as well as the therapists are absolutely incredible. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend this community to other families!

Trinity Oaks, a CCRC in Salisbury, NC
5.0

My life was rather chaotic when I first visited Trinity Oaks apartments. My husband had Alzheimer's disease, and I was needing help. Through a series of circumstances, he was admitted to the memory unit, a part of Trinity Oaks continuing care sections. I wanted to be near him to visit, so I committed to a 1-bedroom apartment. After he passed away, I realized that this was the place for me to stay. I had no major responsibilities, a pleasant apartment, kind and loving friends, compassionate staff members, plus 2 meals a day provided for me!! There were and are numerous activities to choose from, opportunities for trips, a library filled with books and puzzles, programs with speakers, a pool and gym, and housekeeping and maintenance service. Most of all, I think I and my children feel thankful that I am safe and have access to help if needed. There are many residents in their 90s here who look much younger. I wonder if it's because they have found a "safe landing place" too.
