St Gabriel of Murrells Inlet

My friend moved into St Gabriel of Murrells Inlet. It was convenient, and they were willing to take my friend because she's a memory care patient. It was in close proximity to where her family could reach her. The care from the nurses is outstanding. They were very attentive, very caring, and patient. When I was there, they did dine out and gave the residents pizza. They have workstations and games, and they take them on outings.

We're on a waiting list at St. Gabriel of Murrells Inlet. I visited both assisted living and memory care. The thing that I liked about it is that they're gonna let my mother stay in assisted living for the day, but at nighttime, she'll sleep with the memory care and that's what I liked. Everybody was very friendly and they seemed to be attentive to the residents. It was very nice and clean. They had quite a lot of things that she was interested in. It's only 10 miles away from me, and it would be near restaurants and not too far from a hospital.

My mother has moved into St. Gabriel of Murrells Inlet. She is starting to make the transition. I've been there several times. It looks like a hotel as opposed to an assisted living facility. very It's well decorated and nicely done. The dining area is spacious and very clean. The grounds are well maintained. You're just not looking at anything; it's just woods. There are three different sized rooms. She's in the second size, and it's very spacious. It has very, very high ceilings. Sometimes the acoustics are a problem. The sound seems to bounce around in the room quite a bit. She wears hearing aids, and it seems to not be real good with hearing aids. They have some really outstanding staff. You have some people that are not quite up to speed, but we're working on it. They have quite a few activities. They had a Mardi Gras party. They have bingo, karaoke, movies every night with popcorn, an extensive library, and a hair salon onsite. The food was very good.

My mother-in-law lives in St. Gabriel Murrells Inlet. It's a nice facility, the people are very nice there. The apartments are very small, and to me, it was more like a hotel room than an apartment. My mother-in-law has not given it great reviews on the food. I haven't tasted any of the food there, because when we go visit, we take her out to eat. She likes the activities, they have a movie room there, they have arts and crafts, which she enjoys. They also have games, so she plays bridge with other women, and she seems to enjoy that.

I took a tour of St. Gabriel of Murrells Inlet for my mom, and I was very impressed. I like the less of a hospital or doctor-like setting. Regarding the community layout, the first word that came to mind was safe. The staff member who assisted me on tour was wonderful. I got to see where the kitchen was and the menu. The dining room was clean. They have walking clubs, there was an arts and crafts room, and they had monthly projects.

P.L

It just has the assisted living and memory care. Even if you went in as assisted living, you would still be with all the other people too. You would be sharing the dining room and so on. The people seemed to be happy, and I noticed that. The rooms were more like studios. The staff who assisted me was fine, and they spent a lot of time with me. I remember seeing a game room there with people playing bridge. It's new, very pretty and clean, and it's nice. I did have a meal there as well and I would rate the food a three. It's very nice, but I didn't want to be in assisted living, and many of the residents were in pretty bad shape.
