Memory Care Communities in Charleston, SC

"I am a resident at The Palms, I probably waited a little longer than I should have to move in, but I am so thrilled I made the move. The staff and residents have treated me like family since day one. The food might be a little too good, according to my scales in the bathroom. Happy hour is filled with the most fun people you would ever want to meet. As a matter of fact, there are about 100 of us that enjoy happy hour together. I was lonely at home, but am kicking up my heals having a rip roaring good time at The Palms! Sincerely, Irma L."

"I toured Mount Pleasant Gardens Memory Care Community. It was very nice and clean, and everybody was very friendly. It was very nice because they showed me all the different parts and things like that. There was one group that was doing some crafts, but that's all I saw that day."

"I have been to Franke at Seaside. My friend is in the independent living side. It's absolutely perfect. It's beautiful. The grounds are well kept. Everything is very clean and very nice. It's like a resort almost. My friend has no complaints. She likes it quite well, but I didn't personally meet any of the staff members. They have beautiful dining areas and a chapel for church-type things. They have activity rooms where they could go in and do crafts or stuff like that. It was just very pleasant. The residents looked well dressed. I would say it's a very affluent community. I thought the activities were good. The food was excellent."

"I like Harmony at Wescott. I love that they offer all three levels of care. That was my favorite thing. I like that even with the memory care wing, the residents are able to lock their front door. I loved that because that was something you cannot do at the other place. The living spaces were fine. The apartments in the assisted living rooms were fairly similar, but they were plenty roomy. The place seemed very clean. The staff who gave the tour was very nice and very informative."

"My husband moved to Stratford Place. It's wonderful having him there because I don't have to worry about him getting up, wandering away in the middle of the night, and not hearing him. The staff was very nice. They go out of their way to help the residents. They're all very friendly. It has two big bay windows, one on the side and one in the front. The room is huge with a large bathroom. They have an outside area where they can go out and sit that is locked down so you don't have to worry about them. They have a doctor who comes in whenever they need them."

"My husband is at Kempton of Charleston. He's been there for a year. Everybody has been great. My husband loves it there. It's a very nice place. They take good care of him, so I have no complaints. It's the most beautiful place in Charleston. It's like a five-star hotel. It's relatively new. The staff members are great. They have an activities director who takes them out to various places in Charleston, which is nice. One of the things I'm the happiest about is that they do a lot of activities. They're kept busy if they want to. She encourages everyone to participate. My husband gained 15 pounds, so he loves the food. It's a little bit more expensive."

"My Aunt lives at The Palmettos and believe me we looked at a lot of places. For the money we found this to be a great option, and in many cases better than the more expensive ones.The staff could not be kinder and more helpful. My Aunt's room is very nice and has a lovely view. The facility is always clean and smells fresh, not antiseptic. It was recently remolded with very tasteful furnishings, paintings and carpet. They provide just about anything you could ask for including a family like atmosphere. My Aunt calls the staff her kids! They have outings that she enjoys, from the Dollar Tree to very nice lunch outings. From top management on down the ladder they provide a safe, friendly environment, which gives me great peace of mind. "

"I'm very happy with Indigo Hall. My father is improving while my mother feels like she's on vacation. I compare it to the Ritz Carlton. The staff is lovely and very attentive. They know every single person there. I've spent a lot of time there and they just have been amazing. They're all kind and caring. I'm impressed with the intellectual level and the level of care demonstrated by everybody that I've encountered. The food is very good and I was impressed with the quality of wine they serve for happy hour. They have music therapy, guest speakers, a program on travel, exercise class, church services on Sunday, and a lot more. I think they're doing great. They have a quite nice room. It's beautiful. I'm very pleased with them."

"We have chosen Wellmore of Daniel Island for my mother-in-law. Well, she's from Daniel Island, and she's familiar with the area. She's still able to get around a little bit, and so we figured it wouldn't be a drastic change. Her friends could visit her; that's the main reason. It's also a very nice-looking facility. The staff was very friendly. Everybody introduced themselves as we walked through. They seemed very professional, and positive. My mother-in-law hasn't moved in yet. She'll be moving in next week. Wellmore of Daniel Island was excellent as far as physical condition. The dining room, the swimming pool, the TV room, the quiet room, and the sitting room were all well manicured, and clean. The staff was very friendly, and very helpful. Other than it being a little more expensive than the rest, I have no complaints about it. I think it's a fine facility. I was more impressed with the staff than the building, that's how good the staff presented themselves. The facility is only two years old."

"We toured and it was very nice, clean, bright, and airy. Everybody seemed happy there. We liked it, and it is one of our two finalists. All the residents seemed well taken care of and happy. They pretty much had everything. We liked the fact that they had home care that came in. They also had physical and occupational therapy, a salon, and a gym."

"My husband has moved into Shem Creek Health Center at South Bay at Mount Pleasant. It's absolutely lovely. I would recommend it. It's a very lovely facility. It's clean and it's neat. The staff is kind. I don't have any complaints about the care that my husband is getting there. The staff members are all well trained. Each individual is assessed based on their capabilities on what they can do, and each care program for the dementia patient is managed individually. For memory care, I haven't seen many activities because they are in a state of decline. But they offer music, puzzles and games and things like that. I think the activities and the engagement that they offer the community are fine for the level that they are in for memory care. I checked about eight facilities in my community, and this one was the nicest and the cleanest of them all. I've been very pleased. However, with regards to the staff, turnover is there, but they are trying to engage everybody. And the value for money is there, too. I would recommend it to anybody, and I have."

"Somerby of Mount Pleasant is a well-managed place. My mom is there and they always have the resident's best interests at heart. The rooms are small, but they're very clean and updated. The staff is excellent. They are caring, friendly, kind, and very nice. The food has not been very good, but it is improving, now that they hired a new chef. They have a gym room, a swimming pool, onsite physical therapy, some classes like chair yoga, and social activities like themed parties. Then they have daily activities like Rummikub and Bridge once a week (although you could play bridge every day if you find people). They have a rosary group and they also take you to church or grocery/stores if you need to. Someone will take you on a bus. If you need a ride and you ask way in advance, they are very nice about arranging that. The only problem is it's expensive and the price goes up every year."

"My grandmother has been a resident here for almost 3 years. We are happy with the care that she has received. The staff is always attentive to my grandmother. The facility is well maintained and kept clean. I don't have to worry about my grandmother like I have at other facilities. "
