Memory Care Communities in Shallotte, NC

"We're choosing River Park Senior Living, LLC for my aunt because it's very convenient to all of their doctors' appointments and their doctor's offices. So it's just very convenient, very clean, and they have a lot of amenities there. They have a salon, and they go on little field trips, and it was all in all, the right choice. We saw a studio apartment and we also visited a 1-bedroom apartment. They were extremely clean, extremely roomy, spacious, and the bathroom was immaculate. They're excellent. They have karaoke, they have bingo, they have shuffleboard, they go to a show here in Myrtle Beach like when they look at the Christmas lights. They also have trivia, little dances, singing, and preaching. There's a lot that she would take part in. They also have a therapist that comes in daily and they also offer a salon where they have a girl come in 3 to 4 times a week. They take you to your doctor's appointments, they go get your medication. All in all, it's a beautiful place. They have private dining so the family can go and eat with the resident, and you can also check them out for a night or two or three."

"Mom has been at Myrtle Beach Manor for almost a month now. The caregivers are very good. The rooms and apartments are very efficient and very clean. Probably the only complaint my mom has is the food; she says it’s not that good. They have bingo, Wii bowling, and outings like shopping. They go out to eat, and they have exercises or walking clubs. I think they could probably do more activities and have a better selection of food. I would recommend it. "

"We went to Brightwater. It was very nice. For one thing, if you go into their assisted living and, later on, you can no longer take care of yourself, they go on from there. In other words, they have doctors and nurses there. I liked that they had a swimming pool. It is not that far from the hospital in Myrtle Beach. "

"Watercrest Myrtle Beach is a new facility. Residential relationships had not been formed yet and my mother was going in basically on the ground level, along with the new residents who were all moving in. So, that was a positive thing. The facility itself has a lot to provide. The one-bedroom apartment she is in is a good size and is accessible to the dining room, the beauty parlor, the exercise facilities, the pool, and everything. They have a small putting green and a nice patio facility as well. It is competitively priced. We were able to lock the price for the unit for two years. Another thing that was quite appealing to us was the dining room is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. You just go in and order what you want, whenever you want. They don't have specific dining times and my mother has enjoyed the food so far. The staff has been excellent. They do various activities every day with the residents that are both physical and mental. Then they take them out for trips like a week ago, they went to Broadway at the Beach. They have an excellent program and a program director."
