Gene's Residential Care Facility 3 is a small assisted living home with a licensed capacity of 6 beds, even though it has 9 assisted living units at 1312 W Evans St, Florence, SC. Staff assist older adults with bathing, dressing, medication management, incontinence care, meals, and getting around, including helping residents move from a bed to a wheelchair, and they're there 24 hours a day for emergencies or help. Residents can choose from fully-furnished private or semi-private rooms, including studios and one- or two-bedroom options, and services cover all meals, which are nutritious and can be made for those needing special diets due to allergies, diabetes, or high blood pressure, and housekeeping and laundry help are routine.
The community does board and care home services, meaning it gives care in a smaller, more residential setting instead of a big institution. There's memory care, hospice, and respite care, with extra support for mobility, feeding needs, personal hygiene, and transfers. Transportation is provided for errands and medical appointments, and parking's available for those who drive. Amenities at the home include a dining room with prepared meals, indoor common areas for socializing, and outdoor walking paths and gardens for some fresh air or exercise. Residents can join movie nights, music therapy, board games, exercise schedules, creative activities, book room visits, and enjoy access to a spa, steam room, beauty parlor or barber services, and other daily activities.
Gene's Residential Care Facility 3 accepts payments like private pay, Social Security, veterans' benefits, and some private insurance, though there are community and care fees, and staff work with each resident to set a personalized service plan, including interventions and assessments if needs change. There's an emergency alert system, 24-hour supervision, multilingual caregivers who speak English, and support for memory issues like Alzheimer's. The location sits in a quiet neighborhood and stays focused on providing help with daily living in a close, comfortable setting, making it easier for residents to connect with others, enjoy their meals, and feel supported as they age. Pets are allowed, and the staff also arrange transportation for religious events and off-site outings, aiming for residents to have a balanced life with both care and community.
