NC State Veterans Home - Salisbury

1601 Brenner Ave., Building #10, Salisbury, NC 28145

NC State Veterans Home in Salisbury presents a picture that doesn't quite line up; its 4.0 overall rating is two full stars higher than the health inspection found, suggesting a disconnect between reported metrics and what inspectors saw on the ground. On the upside, you can press the call button at 2 AM and someone is actually coming, with registered nurse hours well above the national average to catch complex changes quickly.
