Assisted Living Communities in Elgin, SC

"My grandmother moved to Brookdale Harbison October 2023. The facility is clean. The atmosphere looks cozy and like home. The management really cares about their residents. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. My grandma loves her apartment and the staff. She told me that she feels loved and safe. They have lots of activities for the residents. They have family nights that we attend. I’m very glad that we picked Brookdale Harbison for her forever home."

"My mom moved into Harbison Shores, which has more of a resort than a home atmosphere. It's very well-kept, updated, clean, and has no smell. There's no junk sitting everywhere like you see in a rehab facility. We put her furniture in a room so it's personalized. It's a good-sized room. I like that they come and take the residents to the dining room so they're not staying in their rooms. The food's good. I've seen a couple of her meals. It looks very appetizing, there's a lot of it, and the presentation is good. The employees there have been great."

"I personally love Spring Oak Lexington. I thought it was great, and I thought the tour was great. The staff was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. The rooms were very roomy. There's a variety to choose from with a different level of price points. I like that theirs aren't based on level of care, and it's all-inclusive from the get-go. Your price depends on the size of the room. The dining area was very clean, and everything smelled great. They have a new activities day coordinator, but because everyone was getting ready for lunch, nothing was going on for the activities. I saw their outside court and their activities room. I like that they offer physical, occupational, and speech therapy on-site. They have a room specifically designed for that."

"My friend moved to Highlands Senior Living Gaston. It's a very happy place. They're so well cared for, and they just have smiles on their faces, and they're doing a lot for them. It's just nice to go there. Her apartment is a little small, but it's comfortable. It's clean. They have all their own things in there. She has a therapist. She is in a situation where she is in a special area for those with dementia."

"I liked the way Sumter Terrace Assisted Living was set up. I liked the way the rooms were set up and the way the place was organized. I also liked the fact that the doors were locked for safety, and that it was clean. All the staffers were very nice and pleasant. My mom is there for assisted living. My mom seems to enjoy the food, and other people that stay there say the food is good. My mom is still adjusting with the community, but they have activities during the day. They have chair exercise classes that everybody can participate in, they have movie times on Sundays, they have worship services, and they play bingo. They have a hair salon there, so the women can get their hair done. The staff is very attentive and polite. Some places will include everything that my mother needs in the total price, but at Sumter Terrace Assisted Living they separate what she needs from the price of the facility, so it makes it a little bit more expensive. But, because I like the place, that's where I decided to put her. Also, in the rooms, not only do they have a big bathroom, but they also have a big closet. My mom has a really big closet, so that's nice as well."

"I went to look at Sumter Grove Senior Living. The facility looked very clean. It's an attractive building. I saw people sitting out on the porch in rocking chairs, and they were smiling and very pleasant. I actually had one of the caregivers there come up to me and engage me in a conversation. She was enthusiastic about the facility, and about the people that she took care of. I have an idea of the menus and things like that. Going down the hallways, the rooms were set up. It reminded me of a village versus an apartment thing, or anything like that. My impression was that it was like I was getting street addresses for each of the rooms. They had open areas along the way where they had chairs and benches. The room I saw was a studio room. It had quite a bit of space in it. They had a little counter. The rooms were spotless. There was good closet space, which is important when you're leaving a full house and want a place to put things that you really want to keep. I think I saw a microwave and a small refrigerator. The bathrooms were spotless. They were very wheelchair- or walker accessible. They showed me the dining room and where they can have group meetings. I saw a group of people getting together to play bingo. They had a very accessible type of nursing station. The people working there were very friendly. The people who lived there would stop by and chat with them for a few minutes, so that led me to feel that they were comfortable with these people. The staff knows their people. They had an outside area where they could smoke. They have transportation to and from doctors' appointments in town. They take the residents to special events. The whole place gave me a good feeling. It was a wonderful experience. They had some area out in the back if they wanted to take their walkers. They had nice landscaping. I did not see or hear anything that set up any flags."

"Wildewood Downs is a fairly small place, so my mother gets the attention she needs, and it's got a really good staff. They are friendly and skilled. Her needs are being met in a timely manner. I think the whole place is a five-star community. It's very nice and I was lucky to be able to get her there. She also enjoys the food. She still does some rehab, then they have crafts, and she is able to join them if she wants."

"The rooms were comfortable, and the staff was kind and confident. The Physical Therapy was very helpful and got me back on track to return back home to my loving family. I would recommend this facility to anyone seeking Rehabilitation services. I am well on my way to RECOVERY!"

"My mother-in-law was at NHC HealthCare, Parklane and we were very pleased with them. Nurse Dixon was very, very friendly and made us feel that my mother-in-law was in a good place and they were taking good care of her. It was very clean. They were very accommodating to us. They showed a lot of care to their patients. They kept them groomed and looking nice. All of their services were pretty on top of things. They had exemplary customer service. We didn't deal with anyone else but nurses and CNAs. They did have a doctor that would come by and see their patients that I never met. The staff that we did have a little bit of communication with, the ones that brought out their dinners and things like that, were very friendly. The rooms were spacious and very clean, with good closet space for their clothes and shoes. They had gospel singing, and puzzles and they had everyone's nails done. They had a beauty shop, and the beautician was just as nice as she could be. The receptionist was just very friendly."

"I did a tour of The Palmettos of Parklane. The guy that took me around was very nice and very pleasant. The closets in that place are beautiful, you can move into the closet. Their closets were better than most of the rooms I have seen. But the rooms were okay. They were kind of, funky as far as the angles. It was a weird floor plan because if you look at the floor plan, it looked kind of good. But then when you saw it, it's like messed up. The staff was very nice and knowledgeable; he called back and asked me how I liked it. It is in a better area than the other facility, but still not in the greatest area in the world. It just wasn't my cup of tea. The tour itself was fine, they don't have anything to do with the rooms, they're just showing me what's already there. The layout is like all the rest of the places. You walk in, you have a little area and a dining room. The rooms are so bad, I would give the rooms a one, but I would rate the closet a ten."

"The staff is great! The activities are outstanding"

"My mother-in-law moved in yesterday. So far, so good. The staff has been excellent. I couldn't ask for better. They're just very personable, and everybody is very professional. They've taken good care of her. It's very clean. It's decorated nicely and that was part of why we chose that place. I also liked the cleanliness and all the amenities they have to offer. She said everything's been wonderful. They have a really nice courtyard. They have a library that has fish aquariums, so they can sit and look at things. They have somebody that plays the piano, and I think it's a resident. Normally somebody's playing the piano when you go in."
