The Village on Morehead (Spring 2023) in Charlotte, NC offers independent living with support for residents who are managing mild dementia. On-site clinical resources include scheduled podiatry services and a therapy room equipped for physical, occupational, or speech therapy, allowing routine foot care and rehabilitation to occur without leaving the building.
Staff members are on the property 24 hours a day, all having passed background checks, and an activity director organizes daily programming. Team members provide standby supervision for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, giving residents help when they need it while preserving independence. Security personnel monitor entry points around the clock to keep the campus secure.
Apartments come in multiple layouts; some include private bathrooms, individual climate controls, and in-unit laundry machines. Residents may paint or otherwise personalize their space, receive regular housekeeping, and use scheduled community laundry services if their unit lacks a washer and dryer. Independent Living participants can add medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan. Not all accommodations contain every listed feature, so it is best to confirm details for any specific unit.
Meals are served from a set menu with an on-order option available at each seating. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and room service can deliver meals to apartments when desired. A private dining room may be reserved for family gatherings or special events, and the monthly meal plan for Independent Living residents can be adjusted to match their dining habits.
Residents have access to parking, scheduled transportation, a community townecar, and nearby public transit stops. Amenities include a barber/beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, pool, internet access, communal gardens, concierge services, and several special-interest clubs. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
