The Pine Level market specifically

A small Johnston County town near Smithfield along I-95, providing a quiet rural setting close to UNC Health Johnston hospital campus.

Pine Level's proximity to Smithfield along I-95 means most families here tour communities in Smithfield rather than searching locally.

What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.

Ask for a blank copy to take home before you are asked to sign anything.

You can check any facility's record free. NC DHSR's Regulated Facilities search shows license status; its ACLS tool shows inspection history and penalties. Read the full explanation →

Questions families ask

What's the difference between reporting a licensing problem and reporting resident abuse at a facility in Clayton?

A licensing problem (unsafe conditions, inadequate staffing, rule violations) is reported to DHSR's Complaint Intake Unit at 1-800-624-3004 or 919-855-4500, which can investigate and cite the facility under Chapter 131D. Suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of a specific resident is reported to Johnston County's Adult Protective Services through the county Department of Social Services, since APS in NC is administered county-by-county, not through a single state hotline.

Does a Special Care Unit disclosure requirement apply to every dementia unit in the Triangle, or only some facilities?

The Special Care Unit disclosure requirement under G.S. 131D-8 applies to any licensed adult care home that operates, markets, or advertises a distinct unit or program for residents with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia (or mental health/developmental disability population); a facility that simply serves individual residents with dementia within its general population without designating a special unit is not required to file the SCU disclosure. This distinction is why some Triangle memory-care marketing language should prompt families to specifically ask whether an SCU disclosure has been filed.

Are adult care home license fees and penalties the same for a small facility in Zebulon as a large one in North Hills?

No — while both are licensed under the same single 'adult care home' category, DHSR's fee schedule and civil penalty tiers differ by bed count, generally distinguishing facilities with 9 or fewer beds from those with 10 or more. This is a difference in fee/penalty structure within one license type, not a separate license classification.

How do I verify licensing for a continuing-care retirement community near Fearrington Village in Pittsboro?

The assisted living and skilled nursing components of a continuing-care retirement community (CCRC) are each separately licensed and searchable through DHSR's Regulated Facilities search (info.ncdhhs.gov/dhsr/facilities/search.asp) — the adult care home portion under Chapter 131D/10A NCAC 13F and any nursing facility portion under the separate nursing home licensure framework — while the independent-living housing itself is not a DHSR-licensed health care facility.
