Recent reviews of Assisted Living in Fairfield County, SC
Brookdale Columbia
4.9

I chose the community due to close to my home and the staff was welcoming. The cost was reasonable for my Dads needs now and in the future along with the cleanness.

The Haven in the Summit in Columbia, SC
4.0

My mother was a resident at The Haven for several years before she passed away recently. We found the staff to be so very patient, kind, and compassionate. The biggest challenge for them was keeping track of Mother's belongings, which is typical of any facility of this type. My mother never complained about her care, the living conditions, the meals, or the staff. Early on she enjoyed interacting with the staff, making funny faces back at them, etc. The facility itself is very lovely, clean, well maintained, warm and welcoming. There are numerous places on the grounds where family and visitors alike can spend time with the residents. My family and I have always been very happy that we chose The Haven for Mother.

It is just a great fit for us. The residents encourage newcomers to become involved and socialization was something very important to us. I believe this facility is concerned and caring and determined to get things right! We are fans!
