Yes. Cuthbertson Village at Aldersgate holds North Carolina adult care home license HAL-060-059 from the DHSR Adult Care Licensure Section and appears on the state's current licensed listing, with 61 beds at 3800 Shamrock Drive in Charlotte. Its 61 licensed beds rank 25th of 39 adult care homes in Mecklenburg County by size.
The licensee of record is Aldersgate UMRC, Inc. An adult care home is North Carolina's assisted living license: personal care, medication administration and supervision under 10A NCAC 13F — not 24-hour skilled nursing, which requires a nursing home license under 10A NCAC 13D.
Cuthbertson Village at Aldersgate's current DHSR star rating is four stars (score 102.50), issued November 26, 2024 after a annual inspection. That is up from three stars on the previous rating.
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 Mecklenburg County, 13 of 39 rated adult care homes currently hold four stars. The rating is the state's — we do not rate facilities.
