Pine Knoll Nursing Center

Thank god my grandmother is out of this place !!!
Thank god it was a temporary stay but I feel sorry for anyone here long term.
I pray for those stuck there where their families left them to die. So sad!
On the upside though Beth the nurse is kind. She helps when asked and is cheery and nice to deal with.
Ps. I find it suspicious that I remember there being more than one review here but now there’s one and its 5 stars. This place not 5 stars. I know from first hand experience.

It can’t be easy to run a nursing home, but the people who work here do a wonderful job, and they make it as warm and welcoming as I think it could ever be, realistically.
Just in terms of the kind of services it offers, it takes medicare, so it’s not one of those privately funded places that only rich people can get into. But that also means there is a waiting list. Secondly, there are shared rooms and private rooms, but there are curtains around each bed providing at least some privacy for the residents.
But the place is cheery. It has a cat, and there are always decorations up for the nearest holiday. Dinners are held in the chapel altogether for the residents. I can tell they make a real, and consistent effort to keep the people there happy. And healthy — the nurses are extremely attentive and very good about reporting any concerns to the family.
It is a place that combines the good bureaucracy that is needed with excellent service. I get the feeling that they have pride in their already wonderful reputation, but they also care for the residents at a basic human level.
