Currituck House

We placed mom at Currituck House on May 2, 2023. Initially we were impressed with the staff and facilities. Mom only ended up being there less than 1 week. She had a series of falls (none resulted in injury thankfully) and by Monday she was admitted to the hospital, never to return to CH. Her Alzheimer’s had rapidly progressed and she quickly lost the ability to walk or even eat. We brought her back home for her final weeks. All of these events were out of anyone’s control. Our issues with CH came after mom passed. We were told they were expediting a refund which was a relief but 7 months later we still have not received it! The Director no longer responds to our emails or calls. We also have been billed for a prescription that someone ordered for her but she was not even there to get it. We have spent months trying to get that resolved as well. We are very frustrated! I can’t really leave a review about what it’s like to have a loved one live there since mom’s stay was so brief. I can only speak about the run around we’ve been given!

Caring staff made an easy transition for my Dad. He enjoys the food and always brags on how much he has to eat here. Finding The Currituck House was a true Godsend for our family. Thank you Katrena Chamblee and your staff for their dedication in making Currituck House a nice place for Dad to call "home."

The staff at Currituck House truly goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of their residents. Every interaction, whether it was with the caregivers, nurses, or administrative staff, was characterized by patience, respect, and a genuine interest in the individual needs of each resident. It was evident that the staff took the time to get to know each person personally, fostering a strong sense of community and trust. The residents are surrounded by a supportive and caring network of staff and fellow residents who quickly become like family.

My father has been in the facility for over a year and I am pleased with the care he is receiving, I vary my visit times during the day and day of visits. His room/bathroom are always clean and the bed made up, I have never found him not to be bathed and shaved fully dressed with shirt tail tucked in. They encourage him to participate in the activities. The admin staff was very helpful in navigating Social Services and Medicaid

Passionate About Seniors & ALG Senior: My experience of nearly 10 years in Assisted Living & Memory Care communities has included the largest, and boutique organizations. My siblings and I had to make decisions like many of you may have to make. Where do you go, who can you trust, can we afford this? The bigger question is “What happens if we do nothing?” I had a slight advantage of knowing the answers to those questions. While we made the best decisions we could, we still lost mom and dad just months ago. And not to Covid. Coming most recently from CA, I wish we had had the option of Currituck House! As a community that offers both Assisted Living & Memory Care which we needed, my mom and dad could have been together in their last days. They also have programs that could address the financial issues we had as a family. Most importantly, the staff is passionate, and has over 150 years of combined experience in Senior Living. Guess what? They’re not perfect, but I have profound respect for how they address those slight issues that may present themselves. In case you’re wondering…Yes…I would have moved both of my parents into Currituck House. I hope you will too!
