The Florence Presbyterian Community, also known as Presbyterian Community of Florence, welcomes people of all faiths and is a Life Plan Community where seniors can choose how they want to live, whether that's independent living in apartment homes without the stress of home maintenance, assisted living for help with daily needs, or secure memory care through the Heartfelt Connections program, and they even have skilled nursing care and short-term rehabilitation options at the Marian Carey Rehabilitation Center that works in partnership with Heritage Healthcare, and they're a Medicare Part A and Part B participant for rehab services. The grounds have manicured lawns, mature live oak trees, veranda-style porches with ceiling fans, and nice walking paths if you like to stroll or sit by a stocked fishing pond. Private accommodations include efficiency rooms and suites, many with things like private bathrooms, kitchenettes, washers and dryers, and options for furnished or unfurnished spaces, and everyone gets an emergency call system and basic cable.
Meals get prepared with quality ingredients, and everyone gets three meals a day plus snacks, and you don't need to worry about utilities except your phone or internet, as weekly housekeeping and linen service are taken care of along with regular upkeep and transportation to doctor appointments, shopping, and outings for recreation or culture. Amenities include a barbershop, beauty salon, card and game rooms, a fitness center, a library, meeting spots, and lounges, and the grounds are fit for social and cultural events with lots of wellness programs and exercise classes organized, and they've got a chaplain, activities director, and professional staff on-site 24 hours to help with medication, bathing, dressing, or anything else.
Memory support and respite stays are available, and seniors coming for short stays after hospital visits get post-acute care and therapy services like physical, occupational, or speech therapy right on site, all under a licensed skilled nursing health center. The place keeps a calendar full of life enrichment activities, special events, and trips, and residents have scheduled transportation and plenty of time to visit neighbors in lounges or at the fishing pond, and the community maintains a membership directory to help everyone keep in touch. For those who value safety, there's a 24-hour emergency response system, plus services like on-site banking, postal solutions, and full medication management.
