The Carrboro market specifically
A walkable, artsy college-adjacent town bordering Chapel Hill, giving seniors easy access to UNC Health while enjoying a smaller-town, pedestrian-friendly community feel.
Carrboro families typically rely on Chapel Hill's larger senior-care market next door, since Carrboro itself has limited licensed capacity of its own.
Visit twice, at different hours
A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised.
Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.
