DHSR's rating for Richland Square is 3 stars of 4 (score 98.50). For context, 31 of the 63 rated adult care and family care homes in Guilford, Randolph and Rockingham counties hold the same number of stars.
This is a state rating, built from what DHSR inspectors found, and it applies only to adult care and family care homes. Nursing homes carry CMS's five-star ratings instead, so the two scales should never be compared directly.

Does Richland Square have state penalties on record?
No. Richland Square does not appear on DHSR's list of adult care penalties imposed in the last 36 months.
An empty penalty list means no Type A1 or A2 fine in that window. It does not mean the home has never been cited; check the inspection results.
Is Richland Square set up for residents with dementia?
Yes. DHSR's special care unit list (October 28, 2026) shows 70 of Richland Square's 70 licensed beds in a special care unit for Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, which makes the whole building a dementia home.
Special care units carry their own rules in 10A NCAC 13F .1300 on top of the general adult care home rules. The practical questions are who works inside the unit at night and what changes would require a move.
Other special care units nearby include Brookdale Lawndale Park (0.7 mi, 25 unit beds), Brookstone Terrace of Greensboro (2.3 mi, 38 unit beds), Spring Arbor of Greensboro (2.8 mi, 28 unit beds).

What does Richland Square's record suggest asking on a tour?
Let DHSR's data set the agenda: ask to read the December 4, 2025 statement of deficiencies and the plan of correction the home filed.
- Ask for last month's staffing schedule for nights and weekends rather than an average.
- Ask for the special care unit's written disclosure statement and the number of staff assigned inside the unit on each shift.
- Ask whether Richland Square accepts State/County Special Assistance if private funds run out, and how many residents use it now.
- Ask for the resident register policy and the written grievance procedure before signing anything.
