Marian Parkins Community Residence II is a small, quiet assisted living community found at 518 Pickett Street in Greenville, South Carolina, where only eight people live at a time, so everyone gets plenty of attention, and the building stays peaceful and home-like since they keep things simple and don't allow any pets. Residents move into fully furnished apartments, choosing from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom styles, and some rooms have private bathrooms and kitchenettes for a more personal feel. Staff offer 24-hour supervision, help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and all activities of daily living, and there's assistance for those who need help managing their medications or can't walk on their own. Meals come from a dining team that knows how to plan for special diets, food allergies, diabetes requirements, and everyone can eat on their own time since all-day dining's available, so no one has to rush or stick to a tight meal schedule. The dining room is meant for gathering, but meals can be sorted for every need, and residents can ask for extra nutritional guidance if the doctor suggests it.
There's a community room where folks gather for things like movie nights, scheduled activities, and other social events, and if someone wants to sit quieter for a spell, there's a pleasant garden and outdoor walking paths, all wheel-chair accessible, where friends can relax or get some fresh air together. The staff take care of laundry, housekeeping, linen changes, and the place stays tidy, so no one has to worry about chores or cleaning up. Housekeeping's ongoing, and maintenance takes care of anything that needs fixing, which means residents can forget about the usual home upkeep. For outings, doctor's appointments, and errands, transportation's arranged, while daily activities cater to personal interests, so there's always a little something going on for everyone.
There are security and emergency alert systems set up for everyone's safety, including a 24-hour emergency call system, and staff always keep an eye out with round-the-clock care. Cable TV, telephone service, and high-speed internet are available, letting people stay in contact with their families and enjoy favorite programs, and the whole place offers air-conditioning for comfort. Marion Parkins Community Residence II's monthly rental rates start around $4,022, with all care, meals, housekeeping, and staffing wrapped in, and while current availability isn't always clear, a quick call's the best way to learn more about moving in. Staff coordinate closely with healthcare providers to ensure medical needs get met, offer counseling if someone asks, and keep support adjusted to any changes in care needs, all with the quiet steady care that comes with a smaller, focused community.
