Brice Pointe Life Plan Community

02/19/2026

There’s something very special about New Bern, North Carolina. But you don’t have to take our word for it: we recently asked some locals what they loved about it.

Susan attended one of our Brice Pointe informational meetings last week. She said she moved to New Bern about two years ago and loves it. It’s a lovely town by the North Carolina coastline.

We are excited to be building New Bern’s first life plan community, scheduled to open in 2030. We are currently in the Expression of Interest phase and would love to talk more about it with you. Come to one of our upcoming events or schedule a meeting at the sales office to find out more!

What’s your favorite thing about New Bern?

🖤 Black History Month Spotlight 🖤

This Black History Month, we honor the countless Black individuals whose leadership, resilience, and contributions have shaped our nation, often in the face of significant barriers. Their impact continues to influence the way we live, care for one another, and build stronger communities today.

One such trailblazer is Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first Black woman physician in the United States. Practicing medicine in the 1800s, Dr. Crumpler dedicated her career to caring for formerly enslaved individuals, women, and older adults, many of whom had little to no access to medical care.

She later authored A Book of Medical Discourses, one of the first medical texts written by a Black physician, with a focus on preventive care and long-term wellness. Her work laid an early foundation for compassionate, accessible healthcare, values that continue to shape how we think about wellness and aging today.

We’re proud to reflect on the individuals who paved the way for dignity, care, and health at every stage of life.

❄️ Winter Weather Reminders in New Bern ❄️

With snow in the New Bern forecast and winter advisories in place, now is the perfect time to brush up on winter safety tips, especially for seniors!

While colder temps can make it tempting to stay inside, staying active and safe is still possible (and important!) during the winter season.

Here are a few helpful reminders:

✅ Dress in warm, layered clothing, including hats and gloves, even for short walks outside.
✅ Wear supportive, non-slip shoes to help prevent slips and falls on slick sidewalks.
✅ Stay active indoors with gentle stretching, light movement, or walking in well-lit, dry indoor spaces.
✅ Watch the weather and stay home during icy conditions if you can. We have several bridges in town, follow the news for closures.
✅ Stay connected, check in with friends, family, or neighbors during storms and cold snaps.
✅ Keep extra flashlights, batteries, blankets, and medications on hand in case of power outages.

At Brice Pointe, your future home will be designed with safety, wellness, and comfort in mind, no matter the season. Until then, stay warm, stay steady, and enjoy the beauty of winter safely.
