Sterling House in Goldsboro, North Carolina, sits at 1931 Pinemont Circle and serves older adults with a range of care needs, and you'll find assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living options all together in one place, which means seniors can move through life's stages without needing to find a different facility as their needs change. The facility can have up to 104 residents and offers rooms in a few setups, including studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and semi-private choices. For meals, residents get nutritious food, with options for dietary needs and even kosher meals at Brookdale Country Day Road, all without having to worry about cooking, and you see daily meals included in the service. Residents can enjoy indoor common areas for relaxing or group activities, while outside, secure and landscaped lawns give people safe spaces for fresh air. There are daily activities planned onsite and other devotional options offsite when people want to connect in a spiritual way, and staff helps with transportation for medical visits or activities out.
Nurses and staff are on site around the clock, and a doctor stays on call for emergencies. Care teams can help with diabetes management, including insulin and blood sugar checks, as well as managing incontinence and helping residents move from their beds to wheelchairs if that's needed. The team offers help with bathing, dressing, and other daily needs in private, and for people with memory conditions like Alzheimer's, the secure memory care section has special programs to help with day-to-day living, safety, and keeping memory skills as sharp as possible. Speech, physical, and occupational therapists come in to provide rehabilitation for those who need it, and respite care is available to give caregivers a break for short periods. The building has fully accessible showers and full bathtubs for comfortable bathing, and residents can get help with any personal needs in a respectful, private way.
Skilled nursing teams provide wound care and other health services, and the staff supports those who can't walk or need ambulatory care. Hospice is available when a resident needs end of life comfort. Sterling House accepts different kinds of payments, including private pay, social security, veterans' benefits, and private insurance, and the fees cover basic care, with different costs for higher levels of support. The facility tries to keep things home-like, with board and care homes in nearby neighborhoods taking in small groups for daily support, but you'll find all the pieces of a big community, like lots of services under one roof, meals taken care of, rides to appointments, and staff present at all times so help is always nearby if someone needs it.
