Nice place to consider for your love one’s, Environmental service team does great work and the kitchen manager and her staff are awesome. It’s a hand full of Med Tech”s & PCA”s who deserve awards for being so phenomenal. Being new to this City and not knowing anyone personally, I give Durham Ridge a 9 out of 10. If I had a complaint, I wouldn’t mention it because the good outweighs.

My mother stayed at Durham Ridge Assisted Living for several months this past spring. She has dementia. I visited her often; and every time I did, I was impressed at the positive and cheerful attitude of the hard-working staff. My mother had to be moved because she advanced to the need for a nursing home . It is difficult to leave a loved one in another living situation even for their own safety, but I was never worried that my mother was not properly and cheerfully cared for. I highly recommend Durham Ridge Assisted Living.

My husband has been a resident of Durham Ridge Assisted Living for many months. He suffers from dementia and a brain injury. I cannot say enough about the excellent care he has received. The staff is wonderful and they are lead by a wonderful and caring director as well. I highly recommend Durham Ridge for your loved one.

Personally I don’t think there is a better place to put your loved ones then Durham Ridge. All employees thrive to meet the needs of the residents in their care. The atmosphere is very welcoming and home like. Each and every manager tries there very hardest to meet your needs and requests for your loved ones. I would definitely recommend you to put your loved one in the care of Durham Ridge!
