Excellent assisted-living facility
We have been extremely pleased with the care, attention, and time the caregiver team has devoted to our 94 year old dad. The administration is accessible, attentive, and lead a team of professionals that engage with residents and anticipate their needs. The activity schedule is full and individuals are encouraged to attend. The food is great - our dad no longer misses meals. Our dad has adjusted well after transitioning from independent living. We can't say enough about the respect and courtesy shown by the Spring Arbor care team to residents.

A Good Choice
The staff is lovely. Everyone is very loving and friendly. I feel my mother is safe here and that she will get the care she needs ...the head nurses are all excellent The staff is not always in sync with one another but eventually will be ... and there is a pretty big turnover with the aides (which is normal) so its important to stay involved to make sure all needs are met . My mother is slowly becoming more comfortable and has created connections so I have no plans in looking around at other places.

I'd say I'm happy with the staff and overall experience there. As far as why we picked it, it was mainly because there are only a couple facilities that allow her dog at her level of care.

Review for Spring Arbor of Wilmington
The front staff and nursing staff, went above and beyond. They eased my mind about my mothers care, and each and every person went above and beyond. At no time did we worry about her safety, care or attention. We were called any time they needed information and they partnered with us to care for my mother as extended family members. We will forever appreciate the love and support they showed our entire family!

Our Experience
The staff at Spring Arbor of Wilmington is lovely. Everyone is very loving and friendly. The housekeeping seems to be good. The bed is always clean and clothes are washed. The move in process was wonderful. They accommodated our weekend arrival. Everyone was smiles and welcoming. The Memory Care unit doesn't seem to have a lot to choose from in regards to activities. I would suggest that they have more activities. All in all, the place is fine.

My loved one had a very good experience at Spring Arbor of Wilmington. My loved one was here for a Respite stay. I was very thankful that they were able to offer Respite care. The staff was very friendly. It was very very sweet that they brought out the red carpet for a wonderful welcome on her arrival. My loved one is a bit of a picky eater, so it is hard to please everyone with food. I can't say enough about [name removed], the Director and [name removed]. They are wonderful, caring people! I would recommend Spring Arbor of Wilmington to others.

Unsupervised Seniors at large
The patients are not very well supervised and my father in law walked out of the gate and walked along a four lane road unattended. They need better structure for memory care patients so they aren't free to get into trouble. I would not recommend Spring Arbor of Wilmington for those who are looking for memory care.

Review for Spring Arbor of Wilmington
It's a smaller facility and very hands on. I like it very much. It's a very good facility. They take good care of my loved one. I would recommend it. There is very little turnover of staff. I visit my loved one often, and see the same faces all the time. I think that says a lot about the way the aides treat the residents, and the work environment that Spring Arbor provides.

Dad Loves it Here
I'm thrilled with the place. The cleaning has improved. It's a smaller facility, which is good because the last place was larger, and dad would get lost. The staff is pretty good. There is not too many complaints with food. The activities director is amazing. It is a little pricier than other places but worth the value. Overall, it's a great place, dad is very happy. Also, the activities director is awesome-very musical, and has music sessions with individual residents. One other thing, my dad loves the bus tours.

A place to call home
There is nothing to dislike about Spring Arbor. The staff are amazingly attentive, responsive to needs, friendly and qualified. They are really overall wonderful. There are some personal complications and difficulties with my loved one, but to no fault of the community or the staff. They know my face and I have their cell phone numbers, so I can easily contact them to verify information or check on things. There are certain things I've noticed that could be improved for the price you pay, like cleanliness, worn paint & rugs, door jams, etc. - but I am aware that they've brought in a new maintenance director & personnel, so there's hope that those things will be resolved soon. Overall I feel genuinely positive about the community.

Reliable, Friendly Care
We are very happy with our experience. My loved one wanted to be in a smaller community and it has a homey feel to here. It isn't a hotel like. It has been really good as my loved one is enjoying their time here. The food has been good and reliable and this is a plus. The staff are friendly and easy to ask questions to. There have been times that I have had to track answers down; however, once I have been able to do this they were able to provide complete answers which I am happy with.

If I had to do it all over again, I would choose another facility.
I'm not very happy with the place. We had to place our loved one at the beginning of Covid, so we didn't get to tour or check it out very thoroughly. We also had to make a quick decision and didn't have a lot of options. When I go and visit, the cushions are dirty where people drop stuff. Our loved one's clothes are dirty, and it looks like she hasn't showered. She doesn't even have a shower in her bathroom. They take each resident on certain days to the shower. She has clothes, makeup, and other things that have come up missing. The furniture and décor is old and outdated, and they don't let your loved one bring their own things in memory care. It's just really depressing in there. I know the girls work hard, and they're nice people. But they're not really doing anything to help the residents. I don't know if they have too much on their plates. There seems to be a minimum amount of staff, and I know they've gone through a lot of turnover of managers and nurses. I don't really see many activities going on. Maybe 1 out of 20 times I go there they'll be coloring or painting. I see activities all the time in assisted living, but not in the memory care cottages. I've read so much on this disease, and I know it's important to keep their minds busy. And that's just not happening here, even now that things have opened up after Covid restrictions. They're charging quite a bit of money for memory care, and I just don't think it's worth it because they don't keep the residents' minds busy. And my loved one is really declining since she's moved here. She says the food is the same thing all the time, and she's lost weight. We're torn about whether or not to try to move her. Most days she says she's comfortable here, and we don't want a change to completely disrupt her. But if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't have put her here.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the North Carolina regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about North Carolina regulations for Assisted Living.
