Presbyterian Home of Sc - Summerville

I have stayed at the home and my mother was there for some time previously. My husband was there for rehab after extensive foot/heel/ankle surgery. The rooms may be small but the care is wonderful. The food is good and you have choices. There are activities and a beauty parlor. When we were there visitation was wide open and I came and went to see Mom up to 4 times a day. I would not go elsewhere.

I found Presbyterian Home of SC dated. I think a lot of them focus on activities, transportation and food, but they don't put a lot into the aesthetics of the place. The apartments had popcorn ceilings, which were, again, very dated. I felt that the maintenance could be a little better and they could definitely do more landscaping. I went with a friend and the first thing she said is that the place is visually depressing. The woman who was supposed to meet me couldn't meet me, so she assigned another person who knew nothing about the program. He wasn't able to give me prices or anything, so I didn't really get a good amount of information. He drove me around on a golf cart and showed me the property. I don't think my mom is going to be happy there. The service seems really awesome, but they could probably add more landscaping and put in amenities outside that could make the place seem happier. It had a slightly institutional feel when you go inside, so they probably need an art director to add color and landscaping. They had everything there. The food and the medical care seemed great, so that's probably where the community shines.

My mom was at Presbyterian Home (Village Summerville). I wouldn't have her go anywhere else other than this place. They're wonderful. They have excellent therapists and social workers. They nursed my mom back to health; she did very well. Their food was wonderful. Their skilled nursing right now is quaint. I like that, but it is an older building. They're building a brand-new center.

Presbyterian Home's apartments are very nice but very old. It didn't have the roominess that we expected, and the bathrooms were very small. Everybody that I talked to is great. I didn't like the cafeteria-style dinners, but other than that, I really have no complaints about the place. It just didn't fit our needs. They can improve on the price.

I didn’t like Presbyterian, it had a hospital type environment, and they had hospital beds. I knew my mother would not like it. There were very few private rooms. It seemed very crowded, and there were two people to a room. There was a small courtyard where they can go out, but here weren’t many activities.

Dad has been at Presbyterian Home of SC since February. It's clean, homey, and handicapped accessible. The rooms were nice. They have detached apartments, but they looked like homes. It has a nice living room and bathroom; they are handicapped accessible as well. They give individualized care, really caring to the residents and the family. The family always has access to the patients through their open door policy. The staff are also friendly and comfortable to work with. They have doctors on site, nursing home staff, and on calls. Everything looked very safe for them. They have three dining areas, and they looked clean. Transportation is offered, as well as other services like luncheon gatherings for St Patrick's Day and meals outside on their sun porch. They can have pretty much what they want to have, catered to their pace and life.
