Harmony at Wescott in Summerville, SC
5.0

They operate as a team talking to residents and getting to know them. Most of them could tell you about their interaction your relative. I have not smelled any unpleasant scents associated with people staying unattended to. I'm happy with their response to questions. My aunt ended up going to memory care there a few days later and they are great!

I am very pleased. The interaction with the staff is very good. My loved one loves the food. We picked this community because,of the convience for my family, and I was really impressed. I would recommend to other families. They offer activities such as; Bridge, Bingo, happy hour and they have a beauty shop.

Every member of the staff greeted my dad by name. Not all at once like a welcome party, but just in passing. Hello Mr. [name removed]. They all asked his preferences on upcoming events. Like when does he like to wake up and start the day, and would you like coffee then? And how do you like your coffee? Just little details to help going forward.
