I was in Azalea for one month 3/19/2026. I was not in good shape at all after going there from a 7 week hospital stay. In one month with the help of the amazing staff at Azalea I made a miraculous recovery. Angel,Latisha, Chris (pt) Mamie ( speech therapy) The nursing staff went above and beyond. There were a few little kinks in the beginning that had to be worked out ( and they definitely were) but overall I highly recommend. . I was definitely anxious to go home but saying bye to everyone on my last day was bittersweet

I am currently a nursing home administrator and recently took a tour of Azalea, and I'm here to tell you the care is there! The staff were friendly and engaged with me throughout the tour. The residents were well cared for and engaged in their environment. The facility was clean and orderly. This facility is a 5 Star from my perspective!

This is the cleanest facility I have visited. My mom is definitely being taking care of her needs. Rehab has been a bust for my mom for she is unresponsive,which saddens me. I am grateful the hospital forced my mom out, for the medical staff here saved her life. The staff is great, especially Angel who keeps her eyes on her patients. She constantly makes certain that they are comfortable and clean. As for the food, most of the time it's decent.

My name is Cleo Williamson Jr. I am 83 year old and I was born right here in Wilmington, NC. I would like to say a few words about my visit and stay Azalea. I have had the opportunity to stay at the facility 3 times in the last five years. Twice for 90 days and once for 30 days. Excellent service by the staff, the food was good. The cleaning was excellent, and always had time to help you. I would give the facility a 4 star rating and the rehab staff a 5 star. If I had to go back again. It will be with Azalea Rehab. Everything i can say about this is excellent. May God to continue to bless them as they continue to serve the public.
