Here are the best-rated nursing homes in the Triangle, according to US News

Most seniors want to spend their remaining years in their homes. But, for many, that’s not always possible. People over the age of 65 are one of the fastest growing demographics in North Carolina, and some will need to rely on nursing homes, assisted living facilities and other senior care centers for help as they age. In 88 North Carolina counties, there are more people over the age of 60 than there are people under the age of 18, according to state data. U.S. News and World Report released its 2027 ratings of the best nursing homes on Tuesday, Nov. 10, with 78 nursing homes in North Carolina among the top of the 403 nursing homes rated by the company. Nursing homes, sometimes called skilled nursing homes, provide 24-hour medical care for long-term or short-term rehabilitative stays for people who need a high level of medical care. This is often the highest level of medical care a person can receive outside a hospital. Earlier this year, The News & Observer created a complete guide to finding a good senior care facility in the Raleigh area, including options besides nursing homes , checking facility inspections and key figures on local senior

Chemours' plan to clean up forever chemicals in NC is ‘deficient,' state DEQ says

A chemical corporation that knowingly leaked forever chemicals into North Carolina’s air and water for decades has been working on a long-term plan to clean up its mess. But now, state environmental officials say the company’s cleanup plan has stalled and doesn’t go far enough to remove toxic chemicals as required by law. The chemicals have spread through rivers and groundwater in the Fayetteville region, the lower Cape Fear River basin and throughout major aquifers that supply water to southeastern North Carolina. In comments sent to the chemical company Chemours on Monday, the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality identified nearly 40 specific ways that Chemours needs to expand or strengthen its cleanup plan. “Today’s direction to the company makes clear that DEQ expects Chemours to clean up all the areas they have polluted,” DEQ secretary Reid Wilson said in a Monday news release. “DEQ will hold Chemours accountable no matter how long it takes.” PFAS, known as forever chemicals for their inability to break down in the environment, can be extremely toxic to human health when consumed at high concentrations. PFAS have been found to increase the risk of some cancers, weaken the immune system, and cause reproductive and developmental

Why DEQ trusted a Raleigh real estate agent with the site of a massive hog waste spill

Four years ago, millions of gallons of hog waste spilled from a Wayne County hog farm and into a nearby swamp. But this year, the same hog farm has continued to leak sludge into public waterways and violate its environmental requirements, racking up thousands in fines. The farm’s new owner, who bought it at auction in 2024, hasn’t paid any of these fines, nor has he submitted several requested reports to the state. In fact, the farm’s new owner has never run such a farm himself. He’s a Raleigh-based real estate agent named Wallace Green operating under the name Biox Renewables, a one-person limited liability corporation that has no website and no office. The farm, formerly called White Oak Farms, is home to an anaerobic digester — a device that captures the methane from hog manure and turns it into renewable energy. Businesses that own a farm with a digester are subject to supposedly strict permitting requirements. Green, however, has faced few consequences for failing to comply with those requirements. He doesn’t have any full-time employees overseeing the farm’s pits of hog waste. He’s over a year behind on submitting required documents to the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality, prompting
