I had to place my mom in memory care for safety purposes which was a difficult decision for me but I must say, this facility is very caring and loving towards their patients! Every time I go in to visit, my mom is bathed, dressed, even has curls in her hair. Her bed is made and washed often. She eats well and always has her snacks and water. The staff go above and beyond. No matter how tired they are, I am always greeted with a smile. The admin team and patient care coordinators are just as wonderful! My mom loves them so much! I am grateful! Thank you Wake Assisted Living!!!
