The Best Assisted Living Communities in Kershaw County, SC

"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."

"The Legacy of Camden was very clean and well staffed. The room that I saw was very nice and clean. It had a microwave and a refrigerator in a small kitchenette. They all had the amenities I was looking for, like the doctor, medication, trips, and activities. The staff was really welcoming, knowledgeable, and very nice. Everything was explained to me during the tour."

"My wife has been there now for 4 months. Family atmosphere exists. I visit on a very regular basis and have no complaints whatsoever. "

"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."

"We were impressed with Joshuas Foundation. The young lady that gave us the tour was pleasant. The assistant director was the one that sat down with us, and she was able to answer our questions and provide us with all the information we needed. She was very helpful. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the place. The location was a nice secluded area. I was particularly very impressed at the fact that it was fenced off to prevent people from wandering. They also had secured exits inside the facility that prevented people from leaving unnoticed."

"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!"

"The staff is great! The activities are outstanding"

"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."

"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."

"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."

"Excellent staff that cares for every resident like family. My mama has been there four years in both independent and skilled care. Before covid I was in and out daily. No complaints. Beautiful rooms, engaging activities every day, delicious food"
