TerraBella Summit sits on a single-story campus and offers both assisted living and memory care services, so if someone needs a bit of help with daily life or has memory concerns like dementia or Alzheimer's, this might fit what they're looking for. The building is easy to get around and has secure areas for residents who wander or act out physically, plus there are bracelets used to help prevent anyone from getting lost, and there's a nurse on staff with a doctor who can be called when needed. Staff are available day and night. People aged 55 and older can move in, and the place allows pets, including dogs and cats, which tends to matter to a lot of folks. The campus is designed to handle almost any level of care, so someone could stay even if their needs change over time, and that includes help with diabetic needs, bowel or bladder care, and transfers that need one or two people or even a mechanical lift.
The memory care wing has its own separate, purpose-built building, and they offer special programs for people with dementia, including activities and therapies aimed at keeping everyone safe and comfortable. The assisted living side handles things like helping with bathing, dressing, medication, and moving around, but it's for folks who don't need round-the-clock nursing care. The staff know how to support residents with behaviors connected to memory loss, and they focus on keeping things as stress-free and dignified as possible, using a combination of physical safety features, activities, and staff training.
There's scheduled transportation for appointments and outings, plus parking for those who still drive. Inside, you find things like a library, a game room, places to sit together, and a salon and barber shop right in the building, which is handy because people don't have to go far for a haircut or a trim. There's a pretty good lineup of daily activities, like yoga, gardening, stretching, and balance classes, as well as social events, trips to shop or eat, and even intergenerational programs. Folks can go to religious or devotional services right on site or offsite if they wish. Meals come from the Sensations dining room, with chef-prepared food served restaurant-style at tables, and there are options for different diets, including low salt and no sugar, and snacks and drinks are offered every day. Guest meals are available, too.
Suites come in studio or semi-private layouts, and all-inclusive pricing covers things like weekly housekeeping, concierge help with small tasks, internet, and even help making appointments or arranging deliveries. The campus is wheelchair accessible throughout and set up to be comfortable and safe for seniors, and there's both indoor and outdoor communal space, so folks can gather or just enjoy some air. There are wellness programs for physical and social health, and residents have access to wi-fi and internet, which some might find helpful for staying in touch with family or just keeping busy. The staff aim to keep things running smoothly and personalize care to suit each resident's needs, and they welcome people with disabilities and those who need varying levels of help. The place accepts long-term care insurance, which helps with paying for services, and serves folks in Anderson, Greenville, and Spartanburg counties. Community office hours run Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM, and everything about TerraBella Summit is easy to find on their dedicated website if someone wants to learn more.
