Charter Senior Living of Charlotte provides two primary levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—with programming capable of supporting residents living with advanced dementia. The team can address behaviors often associated with memory loss, including daytime or nighttime wandering and residents who are up throughout the night. Medical support extends to oxygen management; special, physician-directed diets; and comprehensive diabetic care, whether a resident uses oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin.
Clinical resources on site are structured to minimize external appointments. A nurse is on call around the clock, direct-care staff are present 24/7, and exterior doors are alarmed with a fenced rear area for added safety. The community offers full incontinence care, medication management, hospice coordination, and therapy services—physical, occupational, and massage—as well as regular visits from a podiatrist, optometrist, and dentist. Help with personal care ranges from standby assistance to full support for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and transfer capabilities accommodate walkers, wheelchairs, two-person assists, Hoyer lifts, and even bed-bound residents.
Residences are designed to let seniors choose the amount of personal space and convenience they want. Some apartments feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, and cable readiness, while others offer simpler layouts for those who prefer fewer maintenance responsibilities. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are included to keep each living space clean and organized, and maintenance is handled by on-site staff. Not all apartments include every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specifics during a tour.
Dining is structured to support health needs as well as preferences. Daily meals are available from a set menu, but residents can also order alternative selections, and the culinary team can adapt recipes for low-sugar, low-salt, or other physician-directed diet plans. Consistent meal-time monitoring allows staff to assist residents who need partial help with eating, and snacks are accessible throughout the day to maintain stable blood-sugar levels.
For day-to-day living, the campus provides resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and close proximity to public transportation for outings or family visits. On site, residents can visit the barber and beauty shop, exercise in a dedicated fitness room, watch movies in a theater space, go online with community internet access, or relax in communal gardens. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
