Review for Carteret Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care
It was very easy to work with them on getting our family member into their facility. It is a very clean and well kept facility. We have only found a few glitches in their system in the year we have had our family member in there. They have some problems with their food service staff. They don't have enough of them. We pay the highest level of Assisted Living Care. This includes medication distribution and making sure all the meds are taken properly. They have a serious lack of communication with the facility. It can take several days to get a return phone call. We also pay for laundry service. It seems that they have someone new or a problem with their washing machine as we have had to bring home laundry that was absolutely not laundered and had been placed in the closet and told it was clean. This is a serious problem. We know that ever since Covid the health care industry has taken a severe hit with not being able to retain employees. We try to take it with a grain of salt. For the most part the staff is friendly and know our family member well. It is by far the best assisted living facility in Carteret County all other concerns aside!! I would recommend moving a family member into their care.

They collected their community fee, accepted my Aunt with type 1 diabetes and then refused to take her back after she went to the hospital. She stayed at the facility less than 90 days and they refuse to return any of the [fee removed] community fee.

I walked into Carteret Landing and knew I had found the right place for my mom. Every individual is there because they want to provide the care and attention our loved ones need and deserve. They encourage communication to ensure the best possible care

Not the facility you want if your loved one is exhibiting signs of aggression. They are not trained to deal with aggressive patients. The food is mostly prepackaged proteins and lunches were only a typical cold cut sandwich. No real options for low sodium diets.

Everything gets very high marks except for the food. They need more help in the kitchen it seems. Other than that we are happy. If we could give them a 20 + we would!!

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.

My loved one was previously a resident at Carteret Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care. They talk a good game, but don't live up to expectations! Very little activity, they were unable to produce an activity log which is required. My loved one's clothes were not washed individually as we were told they would be. As a result, clothes were missing all the time. The toiletries that we bought were excessive to what should have been needed. Carteret Landing is not a good facility for anyone that is active. My loved one went downhill quick at this facility. Two months later, at her new place, she is already a new person!

Our experience is still pretty limited with this community, they just were able to come out of a lock down and so far the staff members have just been great. The care services are so far so good and now that our loved one is able to eat in the dining room she says the meals are so much better. She hasn't been able to do any activities yet, but we are hoping they slowly bring them back. Given the circumstance we have been quite pleased so far. It is newer a bigger and our loved one chose Carteret because she is hoping she has plenty of opportunities to get involved with things and meet new people.

From what we have been able to see of the community, they have done a fantastic job keeping it clean. The staff members have been wonderful over the last couple of months. Our loved one says the food is great, and the activities are somewhat limited but they are doing the best that they can. The value for cost is pretty good.

Had a wonderful tour. Lin was a delight to speak with. The Community feel you get was apparent from the start. Has many internal programs that I did not see at the other places I have visited. Truly enjoyed the tour.

We have only experienced the Carteret Landing during covid. The administrative staff have been outstanding, I think that is one of the strongest pieces of the facility. Activities have been affected by covid but I think that they are doing the most that they can do and really are trying their best. They have just started eating in the dining room rather than having the food delivered to them and she has had no complaints. I do think that they are short staffed here but I know that it is due to covid. I would recommend them to others who are looking.

This seems like a great option if I decide to place my Mother that far away from me. The Director, [name removed] was a wealth of information and very helpful. This is a great option.

I was not satisfied with this community. My loved one didn't get the assistance I feel she needed. The people didn't help her with things like her medication, feet propped up and when I came to get her, her ankles were swollen. There wasn't any basic furniture in the room. It was hard to find someone to assist us in getting the furniture. No tables or chairs in room. We finally were able to get the furniture, but it was a lot of complaining on my part. The director was called away, because her daughter was having a baby. This is the reason for all the confusion, per the community. The chain of command was lacking in my opinion.

We chose this community because we have had friends who have utilized the care here and they had good experiences. My favorite part about this community was that my wife was satisfied. I would recommend Carteret Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care.

My Mom thought the place was real nice. She did say she didn’t need to look at any other places , liked there facility. We will go see [removed], maybe next week, maybe the week after. She really is not ready for this experience. I expressed we are not looking for her to go into a facility now, but she’s still hesitant. It’s a process I’m sure.
