Carlyle Senior Care at 133 W. Clarke Road in Florence, South Carolina, serves as both a private nursing home and a skilled nursing facility, and you know, the place is set up for seniors who can't live safely at home anymore and need around-the-clock care, because they've got 24-hour nursing and care teams, plus you see folks there getting help with bathing, dressing, eating, daily activities, and they've got medication management with licensed staff giving out medications and keeping track of things so nothing falls through the cracks. The building has private and semi-private rooms, and they really encourage residents to decorate their rooms so it feels more like home, which helps folks settle in and feel comfortable, and you see options for group activities, movies, reading, church services, and other things like beauty and barber services if you want to keep up with your hair or just feel a little pampered, and the staff offer both scheduled group activities and chances to do things on your own, which some people prefer.
This place offers both long-term care and short-term rehabilitation if you've had an injury or illness, and they have physical, occupational, and speech therapy on-site, so you can get the help you need without leaving the building, and there's family and caregiver training and support too, because it's hard on everyone, not just the people living there. Meals and snacks are planned by dietitians and made to fit the needs and likes of each person, with three meals a day plus snacks, and there are special diets for those who need them. Housekeeping and laundry are all part of the package, and you can get extra support with memory care programs if that's needed, along with end-of-life care in a calm environment. Carlyle Senior Care meets requirements for Medicare and Medicaid, they've got a way to safely store and give out medications, and you see support for everything from the active, more independent folks to people who need more hands-on or intermediate care, including those needing rehabilitation between a hospital stay and going back home. They're known for a home-like, warm, and welcoming environment, and they say their approach combines professionalism with a personal touch, which is important because people want to feel cared for like people, not just patients. There are restorative care services for keeping up as much function as you can, and you get the feeling they really do put focus on both the health and the well-being of each resident, with an administrator named Jeremy Locklair overseeing the place, and the scores people have given-a 1.7 based on 7 reviews-show there's room for improvement, which is something to keep in mind when making choices about where to live or where to take someone who needs care.
