Brier Pointe in Morrisville, North Carolina, is designed for residents who are largely independent but appreciate the security of supportive oversight. The community offers an Independent Living program; it does not provide specialized dementia or memory care. Residents manage their own daily routines, yet they benefit from on-site staff who can intervene quickly if an unexpected health concern arises. Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) connect directly to trained team members, ensuring help is available around the clock.
Around-the-clock staffing, routine background checks, and a secured campus form the backbone of resident safety at Brier Pointe. An activity director coordinates daily programming, while caregivers stand ready to assist with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting for those who require occasional help. Residents who use walkers or wheelchairs can receive transfer assistance, allowing them to navigate the property and participate fully in activities without compromising safety.
Private apartments are offered in several floor plans, and not every unit includes every feature. Depending on the selected layout, residents may have a private bathroom, in-unit laundry, kitchenette, independent climate controls, cable service, and permission to paint or decorate the space. Weekly housekeeping is provided for all residents, with an additional light-touch service specifically tailored for those in Independent Living who prefer minimal intrusion.
Meals are prepared on a set menu, served three times daily in the main dining room, and supplemented by all-day snacks. Residents may request in-room dining during illness or recovery, and a private dining room is available for family gatherings. Consistent menu planning allows the culinary staff to monitor nutritional balance and accommodate physician-directed dietary restrictions when necessary.
