Recent reviews for assisted living in Benson

Autumn Home Care of Johnston County in Selma, NC

4.8
Autumn House Care of Johnson County is a small, quiet, rural facility. Female only. Not a large staff but adequate for the number of residents. They communicate well with the family. We didn't need activities just a peaceful place. So if you need that, another home may suit you better.

Cadence at Garner by Cogir

5.0
Cadence Garner is absolutely fantastic. We were hesitant to put our Mom into assisted living but she has been happy at Cadence and we have felt like they work with us every step of the way. The staff are amazing.

Lawndale Manor in Garner, NC
