The Best Assisted Living Communities in Lancaster County, SC

"My mother has been resident of The Blake at Baxter Village since March 2023. After recovery from a surgery, the family realized that due to cognitive decline, that she could no longer care for herself in her condo in New York. After doing some research into home health assistance or facilities in NY we decided to move her closer to family in South Carolina. After one tour of The Blake, I was confident that the location, apartment layout and services would be a good fit. The staff who work directly with residents from the dining room servers, Med Techs and Personal Assistants are all amazing! There is a wide range of social activities available, from group exercise classes, coveted BINGO and my mother’s favorite “social hour on Wednesdays”. They go on shopping trips, partake in local Baxter events and go visit many of the fun places in York County like orchards and parks."

"The Post At Providence has been a Godsend for our parent and our family. Yes, the home is beautiful, comfortable and clean. But it's the caring staff, the friendly residents and their family members who make this a Five Star facility. Since our parent has been there, the journey has been less stressful and more meaningful because of this group of wonderful people. Thanks to all of you. "

"This was my favorite place for mom. Charlotte the owner felt like a sister to me as well as Chenelle, the nurse and Latasha the day health care aid. She really got those ladies moving. It is a small residential environment for women. I think you'll be pleased. Thank you for all you do. Donna."

"My mom moved into Brookdale South Charlotte. At first, she was very upset that she was there because she doesn't like being away from home, but she seems to be adjusting well. We've been very impressed with the staff there. They have all been very willing to answer our questions and take our calls because we've called a lot to check on my mom. We got to see her sitting there talking to people and laughing, so it was a good experience. My mom's room is fantastic. She got one of those rooms that are much larger than the regular room. The facility looks fantastic. You can tell it's been recently renovated and updated. They said my mom is eating, so the food must not be too bad, or she wouldn't eat. The dining area is very open with small tables for small groups. It had a homey feel. They have six activities every day, and they transition those around."

"Brookdale Weddington Park was an absolutely lovely place. The young lady there that I talked to was just phenomenal. I didn't get to talk to anyone in-depth, but I saw them interacting with the residents. I liked the interaction between the residents and the staff. The only thing about that particular place was there were so many women. I was trying to look for a place with a kind of healthy balance of men and women because I needed my dad to be somewhere where he can kind of relate. The facility was very beautiful and they had very good-sized rooms. When I was leaving, they had a man come. He had his guitar and all the residents came out, the ones that wanted to come out and listen to him play music. The lady who was giving me the tour said that he comes every week, and I like that about it. They had a lot of activities listed; that's one of the things that stood out."

"The Pines on Carmel was very clean and very handicap accessible. I went to see an area where people could go out and just sit. I would have had to take my wheelchair for something like that instead of walking, but that was perfect. The woman who assisted me was very professional and very caring. She wanted to help me, but it was out of her jurisdiction to help me with my finances. She said she would have to have somebody else call me about that part, but I never got a follow-up call about that. So, I'm assuming that for what I needed, they just couldn't help me. I wasn't stressing over it, though. I was OK with everything. The visit was perfect."

"The one I liked the most was the Brookdale Carriage Club Providence. Eva, the girl that showed us around, was so nice and wanted to try to fit the place to us, as to what we're looking for. It's a large place, and it covers all types of care. You can go in as an independent, and then if you need help, you can switch over and get assisted living right in the same place. Then, if you need memory care, they also have that available. That appealed to me because as you get older, you change, and I wouldn't want to move again. It had everything you could want. They have at least three meals a day, and on Sunday, they give you brunch. I didn't taste their food. I was invited back to taste it, but I never got back because of my fall. They were generous-sized and well-appointed rooms. They had a full kitchen with a stove, a microwave, a refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a washer and dryer. It had everything. It was spotless and very well done."

"I toured Brighton Gardens of Charlotte. They offered a lot in everything that we were looking for, but it was way above our budget for what they could do. I loved everything about them. It was a very nice facility, and the lady who gave the tour was good."

"It was more homey for my mother-in-law. The people were more welcoming. The residents that were there were very friendly. It's an older building. It's a little less expensive because you're not paying for all the modern looks. They have activities and meals. There are three floors, and each floor has four caregivers, so if one of the patients needs something, they're right there. They have all the appliances. The staff member was fantastic. There wasn't a question that we asked her that she didn't answer. She was very upfront and helpful. Their activity room was kind of in disarray. They're doing some kind of Disney feature, so it was a wreck. If it didn't have the sign out front, you would think it was an apartment building."

"I really like the people at Spring Oak York, and it seems more like a retirement home than it does a nursing home type facility. I really like the way it's laid out and so forth. It was extremely nice as far as appearances go, and the rooms were large enough to accommodate a small apartment-type kitchenette, a bathroom, and so forth. I just like the fact that it was really more of a hotel-type environment. It was just very pleasant for me. The staff member who took me on a tour was extremely pleasant. She called back several times to see how my progress is going towards surgery, and she seems to be very caring and concerned. One of the things I like is that they have a rehab facility that you could use with the staff. They have a doctor who would visit twice a week to check up on you. The facility was extremely pleasant. There was a very nice dining room. It was extremely clean. I met a couple of the owners briefly to say hello. It was just a very pleasant experience."
