The Cedars Of Chapel Hill provides licensed nursing-home care with 24-hour supervision by registered and licensed practical nurses. The staff manages complex medical needs such as post-operative recovery, chronic disease monitoring, wound care, intravenous therapies, and medication administration. Physicians visit regularly to review each resident’s plan of care, and care conferences are scheduled with families to ensure goals are met. Rehabilitation services are integrated into the daily schedule so residents can receive physical, occupational, and speech therapy without leaving the building.
Additional clinical support rounds out the medical program. A therapy gym is available for short-term rehabilitation after surgery, stroke, or injury, while restorative nursing staff help residents maintain mobility gains once formal therapy is complete. On-site lab draws, pharmacy coordination, and radiology partnerships limit the need for outside appointments. The community maintains an emergency call system throughout the building, and staff are trained in rapid response and fall prevention protocols. Palliative and hospice services can be coordinated for residents with advanced illnesses, and respite stays are accepted when space permits.
Accommodation options include private and semi-private suites designed for accessibility, featuring roll-in showers, wide doorways, and emergency pull cords. Many rooms add amenities such as individual climate control, cable television, wireless internet, and in-room storage, while some offer garden or courtyard views. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and linen services are part of the standard package, and maintenance teams handle repairs. Not all rooms include every listed feature, so it is advisable to confirm specific details during a tour.
Residents receive three daily meals planned by a registered dietitian and prepared on site. The main dining room offers table service, and staff provide assistance for those who need help with eating or thickened liquids. Specialized menus accommodate diabetic, cardiac, low-sodium, and pureed diets, with snacks and beverages available throughout the day. For residents who are ill or prefer privacy, meals can be delivered to the room. Feedback is solicited through periodic menu reviews to keep offerings aligned with resident preferences and nutritional requirements.
