Alzheimer’s and Memory Care

Sandy Ridge is a Memory Care & Assisted Living community located in the foothills of the Uwharrie Mountains and Sandhills of North Carolina. Here you will find a friendly face and compassionate care.

Each resident is an individual with unique needs and preferences. That’s why we meet with each resident and family and conduct an assessment prior to move-in and at designated intervals to understand and identify the need for personalized services and assistance.

The Memory Care Unit was conceived and designed for people with Alzheimer's and related dementia to provide a secure environment for the wandering resident and to provide the family member with peace of mind.
