About Hillcrest in Durham
Hillcrest Convalescent Center opened in 1951 as the first certified Skilled Nursing facility in North Carolina. Since then we have proudly remained at the forefront of senior care in the Triangle and beyond. In addition to Hillcrest Convalescent Center in Durham, we opened an outpatient physical therapy facility in 2018. Across both facilities, we are known and trusted by the area’s finest families. We have earned a reputation as the premier senior care provider in our community with a total dedication to quality care and superior service for everyone in our care — whether for a short rehab stay, assisted living, skilled nursing residents, and outpatient physical therapy.
Everyone here at Hillcrest Durham is committed to you and your loved one’s wellbeing. We know that needs change over time, and for those in our care we provide a seamless and worry-free transition to the most appropriate level of support for a safe and enjoyable quality of life as they age.
Hillcrest Hallmarks
Hillcrest’s legendary Elegant Care cannot only be felt, but seen throughout the campus. Delightfully different wherever you look, it’s a holistic approach with a goal of treating both the mind and the body. People say our main lobby looks more like a luxury hotel than a healthcare facility. Relax by our rustic stone fireplace while listening to ageless piano classics on our unique Baby Grand player piano. Ease yourself into a plush sofa or elegant wingback chair — the entire environment is reminiscent of the gracious lifestyle of the Old South.
Hillcrest Durham provides pleasant surprises throughout our building. Designed around the Neighborhoods model of care, with small clusters of rooms with their own private living room and kitchen, Hillcrest Durham is more like home. Every aspect of Hillcrest Durham was designed with our residents and patients in mind.
Hillcrest Durham is tucked just outside of bustling downtown where residents and visitors can go to partake in local delights. The grounds are quiet, private, and peaceful and the spacious accommodations (with options for private, semi-private, and even fully-appointed two-room suites) are an ideal solution for anyone interested in being able to entertain or host friends and family. Hillcrest Durham offers residents unsurpassed privacy, personalized care, and convenience in the heart of the Bull City with the added support of a 24/7 skilled nursing staff.
