I have two family members at Morningside of Raleigh and am very happy with the quality of care, quality of the staff and the beautifully updated community spaces. The Executive Director is the best in the area as she is intelligent, able to communicate effectively and works for the families. Additionally, the chef introduced himself to my father which made him feel very good, not to mention he's enjoying the food very much! These small details are what set Morningside of Raleigh apart from other ALFs in the area. Bravo!

Showed up on time for my scheduled tour,the sales person as they call them was not in the building so I had to tour with somebody else.The person giving me the tour seemed to have a lack of interest in providing me with a quality tourThe questions I asked were answered short and simple with usually a one word response in an angry tone of voice.How would you feel leaving your parents here for care and always wondering and worrying about them !!! The tour took us downstairs to a memory care unit that was dark and dingy looking and had a strong ODOR.The building in general looked outdated and lacked real appeal.This company needs to spend some money to do some serious updating or renovating.The room I was shown in memory care had a vinyl floor that was curling up around the edges probably from being so old and outdated.The closet door would not operate properly and the toilet was leaking,now the paint color left a lot to be desired,not even an overhead ceiling light.For the prices I was given for each style of room it was certainly not worth that much $$ at the high end over $6000 a month!!! I am sorry to say this but do not waste your time here,look elsewhere and I guarantee you will find a place where you will get more bang for your buck. NOT WORTH THE MONEY -DARK -DINGY-OUTDATED AND SMELLS!! I am updating my review,the room I was shown in the memory care unit had no water damage in it!! But the smell was a sewer odor not a musty damp smell from water.Why would your staff show me a room that was not ready,this gives me no idea of how it could look and a bad impression.Say all you want but its like putting lipstick on a pig to cover the ugly up.Still Not Worth The $$$$$

I just moved my 91-yr old mom into Morningside. Previously she was in an "independent living" facility with some in-home health care. That didn't cut it as my mom's condition deteriorated. I shopped for a nearby assisted living place for her and Morningside fit the bill. They have several levels of care, doctors who visit, hair salon, special programs for memory-affected patients and more. But what's impressed me most is the friendliness of the staff and their degree of organization. Everyone from the guy bringing saucers into the dining room to the laundry lady have all been super nice, and stopped what they were doing to answer questions and be helpful. And most amazing to me, when the med tech on one shift asked me to bring in a prescription, when I arrived later the med tech on the next shift knew who I was and was expecting me! These folks really seem to take their patients' care seriously. Lastly the woman in charge of sales, Eizabeth Stuart, was extremely patient and helpful in completing the many forms and helping me navigate the various care options. She was also instrumental in organizing the actual move-in process. So give this place 5 stars.

Questions & Answers

When I visit assisted living communities with my daughter, I find it all a little intimidating. Moving from a small house to a big community is frightening. I just don’t know if I can learn my way around a new place.

My father needs more help than we can provide for him to be safe at home. I think he realizes it but is reluctant to leave the friends he’s made in his neighborhood. Dad has lived there for about 25 years. What can we do to reassure him he can stay connec

Good question! Embarking on a new chapter in life doesn’t mean old friends have to be left behind. Assisted living communities offer a wide range of programs and events residents can invite guests to participate in. And they also offer transportation services so your dad can attend events in and around town with his old buddies. Fortunately, there are other ways your father can stay in touch. Social media channels like Facebook or a video chat service such as Skype are two easy avenues for staying connected.

My mom agreed that it was time for her to move to an assisted living community this winter. She knows she just isn’t safe living alone any longer. We found a community Mom seemed to love. Now we can’t seem to get her motivated to actually make the move. I

This sometimes happen when it actually comes time to make the move. Your mom is probably anxious and a little uncertain. A late life transition like this isn’t easy to make. What might help is to get her involved in some of the events and activities at the new community now, instead of waiting until she actually moves in. Talk with the staff to see about helping her find a buddy with similar interests and hobbies that she can bond with during her visits. Becoming more familiar with the community and with a few fellow residents can help make the move feel a little less intimidating.

My children live out of town and have busy lives. I know I need to move to a senior living community but I don’t want to burden my children with downsizing my house. What can I do? It’s overwhelming to think about doing it all on my own.

We hear this concern from seniors often. Sorting through and packing up a lifetime of memories and belongings can be overwhelming. One resource we like to share with families is a group of professionals called Senior Move Managers. They are experts at handling all of the details of a later life move. You can find one near your home by visiting the National Association of Senior Move Managers or Certified Relocation & Transition Specialist.
