The Little Flower in Charlotte, North Carolina, is an assisted-living community that concentrates on residents who need varying levels of daily support but do not require a dedicated memory-care program. Care plans are tailored to address activities of daily living and routine health monitoring, with nurses coordinating with physicians to keep treatment plans current.
Clinical oversight is handled by licensed RNs and LPNs who are present on staff, and every caregiver has passed a background check. An awake night shift ensures that help is available around the clock. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the team is trained to manage mobility through the use of walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, or a one-person transfer as appropriate.
Accommodations range from private suites to companion rooms, each designed with step-free access and emergency call systems. Some units include features such as kitchenette areas or patio access, while others are more streamlined; not all accommodations have every feature, so it is best to confirm specific details when touring. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are provided on a scheduled basis, and temperature controls are adjustable within safety limits.
Meals are prepared on site and served in a common dining room that supports social interaction and easy staff observation. Residents receive three balanced meals daily, and therapeutic diets—such as low-sodium or diabetic options—are available when ordered by a physician. Snacks and beverages are accessible throughout the day, and staff can provide hands-on feeding help for those who need it.
The community maintains practical amenities that include an on-site barber and beauty shop, an activities room for crafts and group events, landscaped grounds with a garden and gazebo, and a chapel that hosts worship services and quiet reflection. Rooms are wired for personal phone and television service, and scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments, shopping, and community outings.
