Spring Arbor of Cary at a Glance
What Care Does Spring Arbor of Cary Offer?
Spring Arbor of Cary offers assisted living in the main building and memory care in the Cottage wing, so a resident can move between them without leaving the community.
Assisted living
Help with bathing, dressing, and medications, with staff on site around the clock. Visiting primary care doctors and podiatrists come to the community, and physical, occupational, and speech therapy are available on site.
Memory care in the Cottage
A secured wing for people living with Alzheimer's or other dementia, with Cottage studios of about 301 to 306 square feet. Because it is not a state licensed memory care unit, it does not have to meet the extra state rules those units follow, so ask how staffing and training differ.

Each meal offers two main dishes plus an always available menu of eight to ten other choices. Lunch is served restaurant style, and the Cary Cafe is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Activities built around seven areas of wellness
- Group outings about three times a week
- Rides to medical appointments three times a week

What Does the State Inspection Record Show?
Spring Arbor of Cary holds 3 stars from North Carolina, and every rating it has received has been 3 stars. It has had no state fines and no serious violations in the past three years. Its July 2023 inspection found no problems.
Its December 2024 inspection found four problems: a recommended neurology follow up after a fall was never scheduled, doctors were not told about very high blood sugar and blood pressure readings, one resident went about nine days without one medication and repeatedly missed doses of another, and an aide handled pills with bare hands. Back in 2021, the state cited a serious violation after three residents fell repeatedly, 11 to 21 times each, without more supervision being added; a follow up visit found it fixed.
