Best Choice for Mom

I do not have the exact room size, but for a 1 bedroom it has plenty of storage and a nice size living area with kitchenette. The staff is wonderful and very responsive if a need arises. There is a schedule of activities posted and there is always something seasonal scheduled. One thing that I have been so grateful for is the number of staff that pop in to check on momma. She refuses to go eat downstairs so they don't see her everyday. They make sure to put eyes on her daily to make sure she is ok. The facility is extremely clean and the grounds are well maintained. They also come in and clean weekly, changing out her sheets and towels. They vacuum and dust. They also take out her trash daily. She has a nice size balcony with room for a conversation set.

Summerville Estates

The room is a one bedroom good size. But we asked for a studio they were suppose to give her but none were open at the time so we are getting cost of studio until her room opens up. Staff are extremely helpful and she says the food is very good. They have bingo, movie nights and bands lots of activities for them. They have a cleaning girl come once a week to change sheets on bed and towels also clean the place. They have a hairdresser there on Wednesday and Friday's

Review for Summerville Estates

The room is a great size. Just wish it had in room laundry versus community laundry. The food is fantastic. The staff is responsive and nice and they make it very easy to have additional in-home healthcare. I would recommend the community to others.

Our Family's Experience. Overall we would recommend

We are very pleased with the Staff. Very polite and helpful with any questions or concerns we might have. Also, the kitchen staff and food is great. My Dad is in a 1 bedroom apartment, but when a studio comes available we will be moving him into it. It will be more cost effective for him with his current income. He really doesn't need all that space. He seems to enjoy living there. They have many activities and I'm trying to get him to do some of them. Sometimes he just isn't interested but that's okay. He loves to exercise and walk and the exercise room is great for that. Overall it's been a great experience so far.

Grateful

Mom's move in was delayed due to a medical emergency. The staff had everything ready for my husband and I to prep her room for her. They delivered her meals to her until she was able to come to the dining room on her own. The admin staff checks in with me every time I come in to ensure her needs are met. The few maintenance issues have been addressed and corrected quickly and the staff chatted with mom and made her comfortable when they were in her room. We could not be more pleased and grateful!

Peace of mind

I would give 5 across the board! Previously my parents lived in another similar facility. For about 10% increase, moved from mostly 3s to all 5s! Especially if able to take advantage of the entertainment/activities. Even with mom's dementia, she says regularly how Summerville Estates feels like home! Dad has very poor vision, but he can see how much better maintenance and cleanliness at Summerville Estates. Great gardens out back. Country environment including horses in adjacent property. I could not say too many great things! Two managers live on site. Really look out for residents. They have given me SOO much great advice how to deal with my parents' dementia. Housekeeping are not intrusive and works with residence capabilities. Managers, chef, and activity director always getting input from residents. Great communications Including monthly meeting with managers providing minutes/notes distributed so everyone knows about changes/improvements. In dining hall, staff wonderful and patient!

The experience was very good with both of the facility and a place for Mom. The people at Summerville estates go above and beyond to make sure your needs are met. At this point my mother and sister seemed very happy with where they are and hopefully that'll continue for years to come. The hospitality the food and all the people that work there are fantastic. I highly recommend a place for Mom and Somerville estates to anyone who is looking for a place for their loved ones to be.

Summerville Estates, one of the best place in the North Charleston area.

The amenities and the overall cleanliness of the facility were the main reasons we went with Summerville Estates over other places we looked at. Staff is very helpful. They work hard and are pleasant to be around.

Great Place for the right people

I placed both my mom and dad in Summerville Estates. I very much loved everything about the location. The rooms, benefits available to residents dining experience, ease of laundry care, house keeping and all the staff I encountered. I was not able to leave my parents there however because they needed more constant daily care. They only got to stay about 6 weeks in total. I would recommend to anyone having parents or other loved ones that need to have a more manageable lifestyle and many other needs provided to them.

Review for Summerville Estates

I picked Summerville Estates because of the staff. They welcome me not only with a firm hand shake, but a pull in hand shake hug. I would say to my friend that Summerville Estates is a perfect place to live. No more cooking and cleaning. The facility has a warm homey feel. There are pictures/artwork on the walls in the public areas. The food is great! There is a menu you order your food from. It's a 5 star restaurant quality food and service.

Highly recommend

Staff are wonderful! The only reason the facility did not get all fives is there was some miscommunication when we arrived and we were sorta left on our own to navigate the place. Because my mom has a lot of family support, we were able to do so. But had my mom had less family support, she probably would not be doing so well and could have been a bad experience. I think our situation was a little unique as my mom did not move in right away (thus confusion as to when she was actually there) and they were not expecting
