Questions families ask

What resources are available for seniors in Orange County, and does Chapel Hill's college-town character affect care options?

Orange County, including Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough, is served by the Central Pines Regional Council (Triangle J) Area Agency on Aging at 1-800-310-9777 for options counseling, information and referral, and the regional Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program. UNC Health, anchored by UNC Medical Center in Chapel Hill, is the county's dominant hospital system and runs academic geriatrics programs that draw patients from across the Triangle. Orange County has a notably large and well-educated senior population tied to UNC-Chapel Hill, which supports a strong concentration of continuing-care retirement communities in the area; for suspected abuse or neglect, contact Orange County DSS Adult Services.

My mother lives in Carrboro — which hospital would she most likely use, and who handles Medicaid applications for her county?

Carrboro residents are typically served by UNC Medical Center in neighboring Chapel Hill, part of the UNC Health system, for hospital-level and specialist care. Medicaid applications, including long-term-care Medicaid and CAP/DA waiver applications, are processed through Orange County's Department of Social Services, the local point of contact for both Medicaid eligibility and Adult Protective Services in that county. For general aging services referrals and options counseling, the Central Pines/Triangle J Area Agency on Aging (1-800-310-9777) also covers Orange County.

What senior care resources exist in Johnston County, and is Clayton served by the same hospital as Smithfield?

Johnston County, including Clayton, Smithfield, and Selma, is served by the Central Pines Regional Council (Triangle J) Area Agency on Aging at 1-800-310-9777. UNC Health Johnston operates the county's primary hospital system, with a main campus in Smithfield and a separate campus in Clayton, so residents of both towns generally have local access to inpatient and emergency care without traveling to Raleigh. For Adult Protective Services concerns, contact Johnston County DSS directly, since APS reporting in North Carolina is handled at the county level rather than through the regional Area Agency on Aging.
