What Our
Residents Are Saying
The Right Level of Care to
Live Your Best Life
Western North Carolina provides two levels of care for residents — assisted living and nursing care. Private, assisted living rooms with a complete bath are available to individuals who need assistance with daily living tasks, such as dressing, eating meals, bathing, and medication monitoring. Assisted living also includes two specialized units: a memory-enhanced residence and a physically enhanced residence. Nursing care services are available for long-term care, as well as short-term care for illness or post-hospitalization for a recuperative period of time, such as broken bones or following surgery.
