It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always.
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting Reidsville Sesquicentennial Clocktower in Reidsville, NC gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Reidsville, NC is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

“Stephen has been absolutely invaluable with the experience of looking for a place for my mom. He made the process so much less stressful and helped us find the right fit!”
“Nice, clean area good stuff very helpful”
“Stephen was so great to help us find an assisted living that fit my mother perfect. He listened to what our needs were and more importantly what she would like. He did not rush us. He was kind and caring and so compassionate. I can't imagine ever using anyone else for this service. He was amazing.”
“Stephen was very helpful by listening to our senior living preferences and guiding us to a beautiful place for our family member.”
“I have so much positivity to share for this company and for my awesome rep, Stephen Carlson. This man walked me through every nuance of the process of finding an appropriate assisted living facility for my mom. He has endless patience, and tirelessly answered all my questions, and then some. I am beyond grateful for his insight and thoughtfulness during this stressful life event. Thank you Stephen- I truly couldn’t have done it without you! Amy Hill”
“Thanks Karla Dixon for being such a great asset to the community and to Always Best Care in Greensboro, NC!”
“Karla dixon is truly a great person for the community. She is compassionate and very helpful.”
“Thankfully, Stephen Carlson's name was given to me by the SNF where my aunt was sent after her hospitalization. Her insurance company cut her SNF stay short and she needed urgent AL placement. I am her closest living relative, live in a different state, and, being a physician with a mother in memory care, I am quite familiar with the medical, social, and logistical issues related to transitioning into an AL facility. But, despite having gone through it locally with my mother, I found it much different with my aunt since I was not familiar with the area (Greensboro, NC) and the AL options. After a telephone conversation with Stephen to discuss my aunt's situation and upcoming needs, he set up AL facility tours at quality places with immediate openings and provided me with a moving company that specializes in moving seniors (usually with little forewarning and small amounts of items since you can't fit much into an AL unit). Stephen attended the tours with us and was easily accessible and responsive throughout the process. As a bonus to me and my aunt, he receives a referral fee from the AL facilities, so his services cost us nothing out of pocket. If anyone in the Greensboro, NC area needs help with AL placement, it just makes sense to give Stephen a call and get his insight and assistance.”
“It’s rare to find a company where both the caregivers and the office staff are this compassionate. From day one, the admin team made us feel comfortable and confident in our decision.”
“Stephen was a tremendous help in transitioning my mom from Rehab to an Assisted Living Facility. He went “above & beyond” the call of duty to save me a great amount of time and stress.”
“Stephen Carlson was the best! He walked me thru the process of getting the best place for my loved one. He met with me and took my texts and calls any time. Highly Highly recommend Stephen and Always Best Care.”
“If you ever get Alexis on the phone, you’re in for a great experience. She’s funny, lively, and full of great energy. I actually caught myself laughing during the call, which almost never happens when calling places. Just a genuinely positive person who makes the conversation easy and enjoyable. Loved the energy! -cora”
“Stephen Carlson was a tremendous help in regards to helping me find my ma placement into the care that she needed. He went above and beyond to assist when other's have left me in the dark. Not once did he make me feel I was unable to reach out with any questions I felt I needed an answer to, and even after successfully finding a place for ma he still remained accessable if I had any further questions or concerns. Overall, he was absolutely pleasant to work with in the daunting experience this all has been. Thank you, sincerely.”

“We were in the midst of going through very difficult times as a family trying our best to navigate care for my dad. We began with in-home care and progressed to assisted living. Throughout this 6 week process Stephen Carlson shared his expertise, encouragement, and all the while adapting to my dad's changing needs over time, ultimately ensuring he ended up in the best location for his needs. Stephen's dedication through this complex process was well beyond the level of commitment expected. He demonstrated he is a purpose and value driven individual, always seeking the best for the individual and family he is serving. That paired with his extensive knowledge of options available and questions for families to consider going through this process made him a crucial partner. Thank you ABC and especially Stephen; you made it possible for our family to serve our loved one in this great time of need!”
“We engaged this company to have a companion come sit with my mom (who is in a facility with dementia) while we were away on vacation to give her some extra attention and socialization. Brenda is so great with my mom and now she asks for her more than us! Thank you, Brenda for being such an awesome caregiver and helping my mom feel special! You bring out the best in her and have given her a much needed spark. Brenda was such a great fit with my mom that we decided to continue having her come visit with mom even when we are in town.”
“Ms. Telli with Always Best Care Senior Services. Came to out home to Care for my mother. She was very friendly and mom enjoyed meeting her. Ms. Telli assisted with taking a shower, getting dressed and doing her hair. It was a wonderful experience. Ms. Telli had not left the driveway and mom said " I really liked her, she was so helpful". Thanks !”
“BrightStar provided reliable and exceptional quality of care caregivers for our parents. Over the last 2 1/2 years they have had consistent caregivers that provided the companionship and care that allowed the entire family to feel comfortable and secure.”
“Steven and his crew are great to work with. They give quality care and Steven is thorough in helping find the best facility for your love ones”
“During the selection process of a care facility for our loved one, and after numerous referrals to contact Stephen Carlson for help, we were able to connect with him very quickly; his responses continued to be prompt throughout our journey. Very soon, we realized that Stephen Carlson was experienced, had invaluable insight & understanding, was highly professional and operated with integrity as we began the searching for the right next home for our family member. Stephen not only brought us excellent choices that were in line with our values, needs and desires for our family member, but we immediately noticed that he was received extremely well at all the care facilities we visited and was highly respected and regarded. Stephen’s expertise brought helpful & appropriate choices to us which we were not previously aware of. Throughout the process Stephen was available and always added to our understanding of the various options that were available. His careful guidance led us without any pressure to arrive at selecting a next home that we believe offered the best fit and care for our loved one. Not feeling alone in this process with someone that we trusted was invaluable to us. Stephen's experience, skills and rapport with the providers helped bring greater insight and his personal and professional willingness to go the extra mile made a significant difference in making the inevitable challenges in the process lift. We left every encounter and conversation with Stephen more informed, encouraged and better equipped to arrive at a decision that would eventually lead us to placing our loved one in a care home that we believed offered the best fit for them. Stephen was a very credible asset to our journey, and we are so thankful we were able to work together. D and S Shelton”
“Stephen Carlson made such a huge difference in our journey to finding the best place for my mother-in-law. After he found the best place, he facilitated the transfer by putting us in touch with the right people when issues arose. He responded quickly every time. We are so pleased with the choice we made with Stephen. Our journey would’ve been a fiasco without him. I highly recommend Stephen Carlson and always best care Senior services.”
“Stephen went the extra mile to help my mother find an assisted living community that met all of her expectations. He's very familiar with senior living in the Triad area and his expertise saved us the time and expense of searching on our own. On top of that, he was so pleasant and helpful throughout the process. Highly recommend Stephan for assistance with senior care.”
“Stephen was focused, responsive, and led with knowledge and experience. If he had not been available , I would not have known about an option that has turned out to be exactly what my husband needed. I am grateful, and believe he does the same for others. Old school caring with a wealth of knowledge is brought to bear for your needs and the decisions are yours. Please know I am rarely impressed- but he earned it.”
Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Courtland Park and Bird Sanctuary in Reidsville, NC with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Homestead Kitchen or visit Downtown Monument, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?
A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Reidsville, NC, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.
Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.
Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.
For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.
More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.
With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Reidsville, NC understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.
Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Reidsville, NC 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

REIDSVILLE, N.C. (WGHP) -- Reidsville will be moving to a stage one water restriction in response to the water level at Lake Reidsville being more than three feet lower than usual for this time of year.
This level of restriction is voluntary and meant as a precaution to avoid any major shortages.
Reidsville Public Works Director Mourice Brothers proposed this first step with the goal of saving 2% of usage per day. The restriction is intended to last 30 days, with Brothers providing the city manager with an update on Lake Reidsville's water level once every seven days.
Brothers urges residents of Reidsville to help conserve water any way they can.
"Limiting your lawn work usage, washing your vehicles. Limiting how much you take your showers. Things of that nature," Brothers said. "This is voluntary, educational for many that we hope will come together as one united front to preserve our main water source here in Reidsville."
The restriction's impacts go beyond the home. Businesses are also likely to be impacted.
Kevin Braddy is the assistant manager at Southern States, which is a farm supply store in Reidsville.
He doesn't expect the restrictions to impact farmers, most of whom have their own water supply, but he does expect a drop in grass seed and fertilizer sales, especially to the landscaping companies that shop at Southern States.
"If they're not able to water, they hold off, and they're dependent on natural rainfall," Braddy said.
Rainfall is the solution to the problem, but this year hasn't had enough to keep reservoirs full.
"We'll [usually] get rainfall and some summer showers that'll fill ponds and lakes back up. This year it's just been dry all summer long," Braddy said.
Even with restrictions, there's only so much that conserving water can do, and Brothers, like many, is hoping for the rain to pick up.
"The objective is, hopefully, that we will get some assistance from some rain," Brothers said.
The restriction will go into effect in the coming days and last through mid-November.
The Reidsville City Council will give residents 24 hours' notice before the restrictions begin.

REIDSVILLE, N.C. — Reidsville has declared a Stage 1 Water Restriction Alert after water levels dropped at Lake Reidsville, the city’s main water supply, amid extreme drought conditions affecting the region.City officials said the lake has fallen more than three feet because of a lack of regular rainfall and above-normal temperatures.

REIDSVILLE, N.C. — Reidsville has declared a Stage 1 Water Restriction Alert after water levels dropped at Lake Reidsville, the city’s main water supply, amid extreme drought conditions affecting the region.
City officials said the lake has fallen more than three feet because of a lack of regular rainfall and above-normal temperatures. The drop triggered the Stage 1 alert under the city’s Emergency Water Conservation and Restriction Plan, Section 10-54 in the City’s Code of Ordinances.
Rockingham County, including Reidsville, remains in extreme drought conditions. The extreme drought has affected nine counties in central North Carolina, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor of North Carolina.
Under Stage 1, all conservation measures are strictly voluntary. The city is encouraging customers to conserve water by washing only full loads of laundry, running only full loads in dishwashers, reducing unnecessary toilet flushing, taking short showers rather than baths, and not letting water run while shaving, brushing teeth, washing hands or washing dishes. The city also recommends avoiding washing down outdoor surfaces, limiting vehicle washing, repairing leaking fixtures, not filling swimming pools and taking other steps to reduce water use.
“The City of Reidsville has a responsibility to protect the community’s water supply and ensure the continued reliability of essential water services,” Reidsville Public Works Director Mourice “Moe” Brothers said. “Taking this preventative measure at this time will help promote responsible water use and preserve the available water supply should conditions continue to decline.”
Brothers and City Manager Summer Moore informed the Reidsville City Council of the plan to move to Stage 1 during the council’s regular monthly meeting Tuesday night, Oct. 13, 2026.
The Stage 1 restrictions are set to take effect at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 15, 2026.
REIDSVILLE, N.C. (ABC45) — The City of Reidsville is asking residents and businesses to conserve water as extreme drought conditions continue across the Piedmont Triad. The city has declared a Stage 1 water conservation alert after water levels at Lake Reidsville, its primary water supply, dropped more than three feet because of inconsistent rainfall and above-normal temperatures.The move comes as Greensboro has also begun taking steps to conserve water amid ongoing drought conditions.

REIDSVILLE, N.C. (ABC45) — The City of Reidsville is asking residents and businesses to conserve water as extreme drought conditions continue across the Piedmont Triad. The city has declared a Stage 1 water conservation alert after water levels at Lake Reidsville, its primary water supply, dropped more than three feet because of inconsistent rainfall and above-normal temperatures.
The move comes as Greensboro has also begun taking steps to conserve water amid ongoing drought conditions. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor cited in the city's announcement, Rockingham County is among nine counties in central North Carolina experiencing extreme drought conditions. Mourice "Moe" Brothers, Reidsville's public works director, said Lake Reidsville plays a critical role in supplying water to the community.
"It's a no-brainer for us because we utilize it for bathing, drinking, and all those things," Brothers said.
While the city has Lake Hunt as a secondary water source, Brothers said it is significantly smaller than Lake Reidsville. Under the Stage 1 alert, all water conservation measures are voluntary. City officials are encouraging residents and businesses to reduce unnecessary water use to help preserve the city's current supply.
The city recommends taking shorter showers, limiting car washes, and running dishwashers and washing machines only when they are full. Residents are also encouraged to turn off faucets while brushing their teeth or washing dishes, repair leaking fixtures, and avoid unnecessary outdoor water use.
For some Reidsville businesses, cutting back on water use means adjusting everyday operations. Victor Llamas, owner of El Parral Mexican Restaurant, said water is essential to keeping his business running.
"We use it to prepare our food, to cook it and to wash dishes," Llamas said.
Llamas, who has operated his restaurant in Reidsville for approximately 20 years, said he is already encouraging employees to conserve water by waiting until dishwasher racks are full before running them. As a Reidsville resident himself, Llamas said he is also encouraging his family and others in the community to be mindful of how much water they use at home.
"I tell people to be conscious about the water, to save the water. Don't waste it," Llamas said. "Because without water, it's hard to live."
With little rainfall expected in the near term, city officials say conserving water now could help avoid additional restrictions. Although Stage 1 measures are voluntary, the city could move into Stage 2 if conditions worsen and water supplies continue to decline. Brothers emphasized that the community must work together to preserve its water supply.
"Right now, where it's hot, it actually, it's not in our favor," Brothers said. "So anything that we can do collectively as a group to preserve, cut back, reduce is a benefit for the city."
Reidsville's Stage 1 water conservation alert begins Thursday evening. City officials say they will continue monitoring water levels at Lake Reidsville and other water sources throughout the alert to determine whether additional conservation measures are necessary.
