All of our caregiving staff are licensed Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA), Personal Care Assistants (PCA) and Medication Aides who are required to pass rigorous background checks to secure employment. Our staff are all highly experienced and trained in dementia care, are re-certified annually in Infection Control, and take part in on-going monthly training in a wide range of topics led by our Registered Nurse (RN) to hone and refresh their skills. Our staff are also trained in the use of Medication Administration Records (MAR) as we utilize electronic health records in each of our locations.
We use a holistic approach to lower the risk of COVID and other disease transmission. All new staff are required to be COVID-vaccinated per CDC guidelines. We utilize rigorous sanitation protocols and staff continually receive up to date training in infection control. It’s also important to note that a smaller, more intimate environment like ours – combined with rigorous safety protocols – means fewer people are walking in and out of our homes each day, which tends to lower risk of transmission. Finally, because we are family-owned and operated, we are able to quickly adjust our protocols based on new recommendations, guidelines, and information.
Our communities are located in South Charlotte. Give us a call at (704) 530-0277 or fill out our contact form. We look forward to meeting in person to provide a tour and discuss your needs.
Unfortunately, we do not. We are private pay. Our pricing page will help you explore options to pay for care.
While we have suggested visiting hours to prevent overlap with the busiest times for personal care, we don’t place limits on visitation. Come whenever and as often as you like. We just ask that you adhere to our COVID safety protocols.
Yes. Many of our residents will require hospice as part of their end-of-life care. We work closely with hospice to facilitate their visits and help make their process as smooth as possible for the resident and their loved ones.
Since our suites are fully furnished (full size bed, linens, dresser, mirror, nightstand, lamp, chair, tv), you are only required to bring clothing and personal items. If you want or need to replace any pieces of furniture, simply let us know. Each resident has their own private, handicap-equipped bathroom, and cable tv is provided free of charge in each resident’s suite. We encourage you to bring familiar objects from home and family photos to personalize your space.
Generally, our residents stay with us through the end of life. On rare occasions, they may need to transfer to a skilled nursing facility if they need 24/7 skilled nursing care after hospitalization, but this is uncommon. The only situation in which a resident may be asked to leave is if they develop extremely difficult and uncontrollable behavioral issues and pose a significant danger to themselves or other residents. Rest assured, however, that we thoroughly evaluate each resident prior to move-in such that this situation rarely, if ever, arises. Additionally, when difficult behaviors have arisen after move-in, we have worked closely with the family and the resident’s physician to help him or her transition successfully into the home.
Every member of our care team in Charlotte is here to enrich and elevate your loved one’s care journey. Reach out to discuss your family’s needs, ask any care questions, or schedule a tour of The Brownstone.
