Marjorie McCune Memorial Center in Black Mountain, NC
4.0

My brother did not have a good experience in his stay at this community. They had him in one room when he moved in and then they changed his room the next day. When I inquired as to why they said they try to have them with a roommate they are compatible with. When they moved him into the new room he did not get along with his roommate and due to issues with him and the staff not assisting he is no longer living at this community.

The Marketing representative was very helpful in making the transition from filling out paperwork, touring the facility, to moving in. Housekeeping does great at cleaning and food is very good and severed in a nice setting daily. We have been well pleased so far.

I like the independent living villas. I was not impressed with the nursing facility. It's not a much as a home feel like some of the other places are. The meals are good. My loved one enjoys the food. The staff are helpful and welcoming.

We liked it. It was a very nice place in a rural atmosphere. The people there were very cordial. This also was a comprehensive unit (all types of care). There is a fee for extra services if you need them.
