Assisted Living Communities in Anderson, SC

"My sister moved into Oakview Park last month. All the caregivers are super friendly, helpful, upbeat, and it's about a 70-bed facility in one level. They have nice activities for their guests, they come in and check on her every 2 or 3 hours, and it's a very caring environment. They have field trips about once a week, they have bingo, church services, and they had country music the other day, I was there, and went down with her. They had a bowl of peanuts, crackers, apple cider, everything is decorated, and looks holiday-ish. She has made great strides with the help of PT/OT, and I think she's going to do well. The food looks very good, very delicious, fresh, nice, and it looks like from our area. Everything looks very neat, nice, and well-kept. They have arts and crafts."

"I'm considering Viva Senior Living at Easley for my sister if everything goes well. Everybody I've talked to seemed real nice and helpful in explaining things. I've had family members there before and everything was OK."

"The staff at The Residences at Park Place is excellent. We've had no problems whatsoever with the staff. They've been very friendly and very helpful. I haven't tried their food. But my mother-in-law says it's good, although she said it wasn't as good as when she went there which was only a month ago. So she's certainly enjoying it. They have different sizes of room depending on what you need. They're constantly going on shopping excursions and they have other activities like card games, bingo, as well as arts and crafts. "

"I toured here. It was a very positive experience. The lady that I met was very helpful. The establishment was very clean. It was outstanding. The rooms were private ones. They were having a shopping tour, and they were going to go see Christmas lights the week that we came. The staff was telling me about the events that were having. There was an actual bingo game going on when we got there. They had a lot of different activities that they were planning for the residents, and that was just not for the Christmas season. She gave me like a calendar to look and see everything. They have coffee hour. They showed me the menu of what they were going to offer. They were saying that if it was something that the resident didn't want, they can choose from different things."

"We toured Waterstone on Augusta. What I liked about it was, number one, it was a newer facility. Number two, the care that we saw exhibited there seemed excellent. The people there were very accommodating. The facility itself was excellent, very clean and sanitary. There were lots of activities for the senior adults to get involved in, and the people there were just extraordinary."

"My mother will be moving into Kauhale Pettigru. I liked the location. It's convenient to my hometown and for all my siblings to get to. I liked the setting. It's in Downtown Greenville, so there are lots of trees and pretty outdoors. I liked that it's a smaller community. There are 20 people in memory care. It would be more conducive to the staff being more attentive. They're not overloaded. I had a pleasant experience. I liked the director who showed me around. She's very nice, very knowledgeable, and she knows her stuff. It was very clean. They had a patio and nice outdoor spaces. They had one that had a grill setup and an outdoor picnic area. They had another one that was sort of like a walking trail that just looped around the back. It was really nice."

"We toured The Blake at Hollingsworth Park. Compared to other facilities, it was pretty glamorous and it was more expensive. The staff during the tour was excellent. Everybody was very welcoming. The dining was more like a restaurant, so it was very nice. The room accommodations were very beautiful. They had a beautiful courtyard area. There was a media room. This is a very nice high-end facility."

"When we needed to find an assisted living facility for one of my mom's friends we were lucky enough to discover Emeritus at Bellaire Place in Greenville, SC. This is within driving distance of our home in Charlotte, NC and Emeritus allows some pets to share the living quarters with their owners. This was a major concern because the woman has a 14 year old Yorkie named Bobo that she could not bear to part with. We have visited weekly during the past 3 months and were quietly surprised to find that this is a senior community that really does stand behind its promises of service, care and quality. The food always looks delicious and from personal experience I can tell you that it tastes as good as it looks. The staff members must surely be busy throughout the day but they take the time to give us updates and answer questions as much as possible. Sometimes we have to wait until they have a moment to spare but they have never made us feel as though we were unwelcome or intrusive. Our mom's friend is delighted with the care and assistance that is available around the clock, and Bobo seems to have settled in and made new friends as well. I guess their happiness and well-being says it all. "

"My mother-in-law has been at Marchbanks for two weeks now. So far, it has been great. They are taking care of her. The staff seems very caring about the patients. The rooms are clean. "

"It looked like quite a resort, and that's good. I thought the rooms looked fine. The place was clean. They had a pool and quite a few things. This was the biggest of all the places that we visited. The staff who assisted us with the tour was very nice."

"The Garden House is very nicely appointed. They have nice activities for the residents. It is well-kept, and I think they like their meals. The dining area is nice, and they have a breakfast area as well. The actual apartment that my parents are in is nicely maintained. For my parents, they have the support on-site that they need or people who are educated on what is necessary to supervise somebody who has progressing Alzheimer’s. They haven’t been there that long, but it’s been a good first impression. They just moved in a month ago. "

"The tour at Dominion Senior Living of Anderson was great. The facility has courtyards, a big common area, and a traditional layout. It's in town. The staff was great. They have a therapy program. They have studios, I looked in a semi-private room and they have a common area and private bedrooms, but they share a bathroom. They're faith-driven, so they have a church service there. But it's top-of-the-line expensive."

"We are going to be moving my mom to Clemson Heritage Senior Living. Of all the places that were recommended, this was the most convenient one for us to get to. It's also the newest. It's brand new and really, really nice. We toured their assisted living, and the person who gave us the tour was terrific. We were just there a little while ago to sign all the papers. Her name is Amy, and she was really, really helpful. It's a good place. They had a courtyard and it was really nice. There's also a sunroom, a library, and an exercise room."

"My mother stayed here. It was clean. Everyone was very cordial and professional. It felt like a family environment. They're very caring. They called each unit an apartment; the majority was spacious. Hers had enough room for a bed, a dresser, and a recliner, and it had a microwave, a small refrigerator, and a bathroom. They had really good food. The dining area was nice. They had tables with four to a table, some on the side with two people. They had three meals and breakfast was at 8:00, lunch at noon, and dinner at 5:00. They would choose what they wanted for lunch and dinner. My mother was there for almost three months. They had arts and crafts. Sometimes they would have people do the nails. They would have singing. They have a calendar with different things that they could do. It was like family. The employees were very caring as well as the other residents."
