Is Mill Creek Manor licensed in North Carolina?

What star rating does North Carolina give Mill Creek Manor?

Mill Creek Manor's current DHSR star rating is one star (score 77.75), issued September 3, 2026 after a re-issued. The previous rating was also one star.

North Carolina rates every adult care home 0-4 stars from inspection points (100 base points, plus merits for rule-exceeding performance and minus demerits for violations); four stars requires 100+ points on two consecutive annual surveys. In Iredell County, 5 of 12 rated adult care homes currently hold four stars. The rating is the state's — we do not rate facilities.

Penalties are imposed for the most serious violations — level A1/A2 findings that caused or risked serious harm, or violations left unabated. A paid or settled penalty does not mean the issue recurred; ask the administrator what was changed and read the linked report.

What this facility's record suggests asking

• Read the most recent Statement of Deficiencies before touring — a score under 90 means the home lost more than 10 points to violations on its last rated inspection.
• Ask how the 11 complaint investigation(s) on file were resolved.
• Tour the Special Care Unit separately from the assisted living side; staffing and activities differ.
• Confirm the license number on the certificate posted in the lobby matches HAL-049-033.

• What is the overnight caregiver-to-resident ratio, and is it the same in the Special Care Unit?

• Can I see your most recent DHSR Statement of Deficiencies and your plan of correction?
