Windsor House is a good fit for my mother-in-law. It's kind of a smaller home with fifty residents and thirty-eight rooms. We like the fact that they have a mixture of residents there. She can be as independent as she needs to be but also get the care that she needs. They have a doctor on call and nurses come in. They're very attentive to the residents' individual needs in terms of food and lifestyle, so to speak. She's in a single room; she has a bathroom and a living space. They allowed us to bring furniture from her home, and they provide the cable setup in her room. She doesn't have a need for a telephone but they would provide one, and I think there's an extra charge for that. She liked the fact that for the price it was all inclusive; there are not a lot of add-ons because she's on a very limited budget. They play bingo, and they have activities every single day that they can participate in as they wish. Every day they can look at the board with a list of activities available that week, and the residents are allowed to participate if they're interested. They have a library, which is good since she likes to read; they have a living room with a fireplace where they can sit and read; and they have community dining -- it's a nice setting. The activities are a little limited right now due to the COVID shutdown. The staff I've interacted with are very nice, and the layout of the place is very nice.

My father is at The Legacy at Southpointe Drive. It's been good. It's a nice place for him. The staff is great. There has been a lot of confusion financially, but mostly everything has been resolved. They feed him three meals a day, and he has his own refrigerator and groceries. He is able to snack when he wants, so it's pretty convenient. They have a fitness center, but because of COVID, they really haven't been able to get him up there yet. I would like to look into some kind of therapy or somebody who can help him with his exercises because he's not doing them. When you walk into his apartment, there is a full-sized bathroom to the left. It has a walk-in shower, which is important, because he doesn't have a lot of strength in his legs. To the right, there's a mini-kitchen, a sink, a microwave, and a full refrigerator. He has a bed on one side, his chair on the other, and a TV hookup. It's a nice place, but it's kind of expensive.

We saw Windsor House just on the outside. The grounds were clean. We saw two rooms from an outside entrance. The rooms were nice and big with their own bathroom, but I think you had to bring your own furniture. One room had furnishings, the other one was empty. With the price, they should provide furnishings because it's a lot of money. I only met one person, and he was very nice. My one big concern is that these things are expensive. They're right against the road, which I don't know if that's too ideal because if somebody tried to walk out or something, they could be in big trouble. There were no gates. I think they probably should have a gate. They're right on Pelham Road, and Pelham Road is a very busy road. They had meals and activities planned, but you had to bring somebody in for care. They should have a gate going to the road, so that people couldn't walk off. The building itself was good. It's nice and clean, and there's a park that you can walk on and a lot of outdoor seating. It felt comfortable there. The only one issue I had was there should've been a gate because it's a very busy road and somebody could just walk out because the rooms had outside entrances. If you're a little confused, you can just walk off and walk out into the street.

I visited Windsor House. They charge $2000 a month, and as my husband moves up a level, it does not go up, so it's a flat fee. He hasn't spent one day there yet, but his room is all setup. Everything's taken care of and I'm going to pay to hold that room. He hasn't moved in yet, but they did a fabulous job working with me. We went and stayed in a family room, and the staff took a video with his phone and we liked what we saw. They were very nice. I called several times and I've only talked to the same administrator and customer service person every day, but the med tech was the one that I spoke with during the tour. The room is 310 square feet. It's a deluxe room, and it's semi-private. I ordered everything ahead of time and it got there ahead of time. They have all kinds of activities. They have PT there and basic cable that they pay for. My husband can't operate a cellphone, but they said they probably had an old phone that they could plug up and use. They've got a pharmacy network that takes care of medications, a doctor and nurse that come in once a month and a med tech that delivers the medications. It was clean, homey, and privately owned. They were extremely nice. One of their activities was taking them out to eat. The facility was very traditional. It's not far off from the kind of home we have.

Our tour was very nice and we were impressed. The second time I visited my husband went with me and we liked it. The personnel was wonderful. They have a library, chapel, they have an exercise room, and they gave us a list of their menus.

This is not a good place for your loves ones. I am being nice in this review. If I could give no stars I would. This was a bad experience. My parent had to contact me to tell them to change her or get good. I don’t know if they are short staff but not a good place to go.

I visited The Woodlands at Furman. It's very nice, affiliated with Furman University, and they have access to a lake, to concerts, and sporting events. The staff member was fantastic. She gave us all the information, she gave us the tour, and helped us select an apartment. It's a very small apartment, but Mother plans to move to a larger apartment if they open up. It has a beautiful kitchen with stainless appliances, and everything is new. It's a one-bedroom and it has a little patio area, living room, and kitchen that's kind of open, plus a bathroom. The dining area looked great and they seemed to have a really good program.
According to Genworth’s 2018 Cost of Care survey, the average monthly cost of assisted living in Greenville ($3,843) is just below the national average of $4,000 but about 10 percent higher than the state average of $3,500. Most of the state falls below the national average with the exception of the Myrtle Beach area at $4,526. Florence ($2,275) and Spartanburg ($2,310) are the least expensive cities for assisted living in South Carolina.
Senior care costs are highly dependent on the level of care an individual needs. The average monthly cost of assisted living in Greenville is $3,092 less than a semiprivate room in a nursing home, and if an individual is mobile, needs very little daily care or intermittent nursing skills, then assisted living may be a good fit. Home health assistance ($3,766) costs about the same as assisted living, but expenses such as rent, groceries, transportation and utilities must be accounted for. These costs are typically included in assisted living fees. Cost of Homemaker/Home Health Aide Comparison Chart Assisted living: $3,843
Homemaker services: $3,766
Home health aide: $3,766
Adult day health: $1,343
Nursing home care (semiprivate room): $6,935
South Carolina’s Medicaid program is called Healthy Connections. It’s managed by the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS), and it helps low-income families and individuals who are disabled or over the age of 65 receive medical care. Healthy Connections pays for some or all medical bills and can financially assist with nursing facility care. If an individual receives Social Security Income (SSI), they automatically qualify for Medicaid.
Eligibility requirements include:
Optional State Supplementation
Optional State Supplementation Program (OSS) is a state-funded program that is managed by the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS). This program is intended to support the health and care of seniors who reside in an assisted living facility and improve their quality of life, preventing early entry into a nursing home.
The advantages of this program is that members receive full Medicaid benefits and cash payments for room and board, along with a small allowance for personal needs.
To qualify for OSS, an individual must be a U.S. citizen or qualified alien, a resident in South Carolina, age 65 and older, a resident in an assisted living facility that is enrolled with SCDHHS and must have a monthly income that doesn’t exceed $1,456 or $2,000 in resources.
Older Americans Act in South Carolina
The Older Americans Act (OAA) is a federal program that provides funded money to designated Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) for various services to seniors living outside of nursing homes. These services include congregate meals, caregiver support, transportation, case management and assistance with senior benefit programs.
For eligibility, individuals must be age 60 and above and reside in South Carolina. Funding for OAA is limited and distributed to individuals who are prioritized as the most in need.
To learn more information and apply for this program, please call the Appalachia Area Agency at (864) 242-9733.
Elderlife Bridge Loans
Bridge loans were created to ease the gap of financial strain when transitioning into an assisted living facility while waiting on other resources to come through. Elderlife lends immediate financial support to Individuals in as little as 24 hours and pays directly to facilities or home care agencies. An adviser guides seniors through the application process and helps to determine exactly how much is needed and what the monthly payments will be.
This loan allows up to six cosigners, which lessens the need for a strong credit score from any one borrower and enables others to share the cost of paying back the loan.
To be eligible for an Elderlife bridge loan, participants must have:
