An adult care home is not a nursing home
Adult care homes (assisted living) help with daily living — bathing, dressing, medicines, meals — but don't provide round-the-clock nursing. They are licensed and inspected by North Carolina, not by Medicare, so this page uses the state's own records. There are no federal star ratings, staffing records or quality measures for these homes. We tell you what is published and what isn't.

Who runs it
Licence holder: 86CT Charlotte LLC.
State licence number: HAL-060-179.
When a home is sold, North Carolina usually issues a new licence. We link old and new licences so a home's history doesn't vanish with a change of owner, and we'll tell you if it happens here.
What isn't published for adult care homes
No public record covers these, so ask the home directly.
Staffing levels
No payroll records are published. Ask how many aides and medication aides are on each shift, including nights.
Quality measures
No falls, weight-loss or hospital-visit rates. Inspection reports are the only regular outside check.
Prices
Most residents pay privately. Ask for the monthly rate, what it includes and how it rises as care needs grow.
Ownership
There is no public owner list like the federal one for nursing homes. We show the licensee and licence changes.
What you can do
Questions to ask on a tour, from this record
- The state cited a Type A1 violation on Feb 13, 2026 (Resident Rights). What changed afterwards?
- How many aides and medication aides are on duty on each shift, including nights?
- What does the monthly rate include, and how does it rise as care needs grow?
- When would a resident have to move out because their needs are too great?
If your family member already lives here
Raise concerns with the administrator first, in writing if serious. County social services staff (the adult home specialist) also visit adult care homes and investigate complaints, and the free Long-Term Care Ombudsman (Centralina, (800) 508-5777) can help. You can file a complaint with the state at 1-800-624-3004 (weekdays); NC sends adult care complaints to the county to investigate. If someone is in danger now, call 911.
