    Neglectful facility, occasional caring staff

    I had a mixed but mostly negative experience. The activities director was fantastic and a few staff were kind and engaged - residents enjoyed programs and some areas felt clean and family-like - but overall I saw unprofessional, uncaring staff, poor communication, chronic staffing shortages/high turnover, and absent or ineffective management. There were serious safety and hygiene concerns (pests, needles, no cameras, residents left unclean or unchecked), cash solicitations for extra care, and rough handling; I moved my loved one out after six months and cannot recommend this facility until leadership, staffing, and safety are fixed.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is highly mixed and polarized, with distinct and repeated patterns of praise and serious concern. A subset of reviewers report warm, attentive, and professional care: staff described as friendly, compassionate, knowledgeable and dedicated; residents engaged by a strong Activities Director and a varied monthly activities calendar; group dining and social programming that residents enjoy; clean, fresh-smelling spaces and a family-like atmosphere for some families. Multiple reviewers explicitly said their loved ones are happy, safe, and well cared for, praising individual employees and drop-in checks that felt reassuring.

    Contrasting sharply with those positive accounts, a substantial number of reviews describe severe problems with care quality, safety, hygiene and management. Commonly reported issues include unclean conditions and pest infestations (roaches, fleas), maintenance problems (broken bathrooms), and disturbing allegations of neglect such as residents left unchanged for hours, feces left on residents, and residents wearing the same clothes for weeks. Several reviewers reported alleged abusive behaviors — staff yelling at or being rough with residents, forced feeding or medication, and even staff fights or name-calling. There are multiple safety-related claims as well, including residents escaping regularly, needles found in the parking lot, and concerns about monitoring because reviewers say there are no cameras on the premises and overnight checks were not performed (periods cited from about 7pm to 4:30am).

    Staffing and management emerge as central themes linking many of the problems and the variability in care. Reviews frequently cite insufficient staffing levels, high turnover, and specific criticisms of named managers (several complaints about managers such as Candice and Dawn, claims of poor complaint handling, and owners being absent). Some reviewers said shifts were let go or that the new manager created drama and did not follow physician notes; others said the administrator is attempting to hold staff accountable and that things are moving in a better direction. This mix suggests inconsistent leadership and staffing that produce widely different resident experiences depending on timing, staff on duty, or particular units.

    Communication and administrative issues are another consistent thread. Families report poor communication with staff and HR, a receptionist who hangs up on callers, and lack of follow-up after incidents. Several reviewers described practices that feel exploitative or unprofessional, such as requesting cash for activities or extra care, missed housekeeping, and no meals on holidays. A few reviewers specifically noted plans to report the facility to federal health authorities or stated the facility should be shut down, reflecting the level of concern by some families.

    Dining and activities are generally a relative strength but also show variation: some reviewers praise the food ("awesome lunch") and say residents love the meals and activities, while a minority complained of bad meals. The Activities Director receives multiple strong compliments for engagement and programming, which stands out as a consistent positive even among reviewers with other complaints.

    In summary, these reviews reveal a facility with deeply inconsistent performance. Positive reports highlight caring staff, engaging programming, and clean, safe experiences for some residents. Negative reports describe serious lapses in hygiene, safety, basic personal care, monitoring, and professionalism, often tied to staffing shortages and management problems. The most notable and recurring concerns are neglect of basic hygiene and toileting needs, pest infestations, inadequate overnight monitoring and security, abusive or unprofessional staff behavior, and poor responsiveness from management. Prospective families should weigh the polarized experiences carefully, ask targeted questions about staffing levels, overnight monitoring, pest control, incident reporting and follow-up, management stability, and observe current cleanliness and staff-resident interactions on multiple visits and at different times of day before making placement decisions.

    About Memory Care of the Triad

    Memory Care of the Triad sits at 413 N Main St in Kernersville, North Carolina, and serves people who have Alzheimer's disease or other kinds of dementia, making sure they stay safe and as comfortable as possible. The building has 42 beds and gives both men and women a secure and supportive place, and folks can even bring their pets, which sometimes helps them feel more at home, and for those who need it, they also allow for hospice and respite care, so families can get a little relief while knowing their loved one is in good hands. The place has strict rules about no smoking anywhere inside, and rooms have features like emergency call systems, and there are showers that work for people in wheelchairs, so everyone can feel safe and move around as much as they're able.

    There's a mix of indoor and outdoor common areas where residents can spend time, maybe take part in one of the many planned activities led by an activities director, or just sit and visit, and there's resident parking if needed. Staffed by a team of trained caregivers and a Resident Care Coordinator, as well as nurses who are described as loving and caring, the facility gives specialized care for memory loss, including personal care, medication management, and help for people who need diabetic or incontinence care, so everyone gets the attention they need. They build individual care plans for each resident, and they pay attention to things like meal planning, making sure food is nutritious, set up by chefs and a registered dietitian, and meals are always provided.

    For spiritual needs, people can attend meditation or fellowship sessions, and there are both onsite and offsite activities depending on what someone is up for that day, plus devotional services are offered for those who want them. The community also handles housekeeping and laundry, and there's a beauty and barber shop so folks can keep up with their grooming. Transportation is available to get residents to appointments or outings, which can take some of the worry off families. The secure environment is set up to keep people with memory issues from wandering, and there's always staff ready to help with behavioral needs or emergencies, since an emergency call system is in place throughout the facility. Memory Care of the Triad is licensed as an Adult Care Home and aims to make daily life safe and meaningful for people living with dementia or memory loss, with a calm and structured setting where everyone gets treated with care and respect.
