I would have to say five for everyone of the categories except the last one which would be for the expense it is expensive I don't know how some people can do it. I'm getting assistance from the government so that makes it easier for me In the very beginning I have to be honest there was a lot of thievery going on. The cleaning staff we're stealing from the apartments the person in charge at the at the desk can't see what you call him right now he was going into rooms and stealing medication because he was on drugs. I lost a lot of my old medicine. But the last year or so it has been really great they have supplied cameras in the hallways so they can see who's going in and out of doors. People here friendly I just find a hard for me to mingle with them even promising your citizen I don't like being around seeing citizens. Other than what I had mentioned about the thievery in the beginning As far as events and outings stuff like that I really can't comment on because I don't participate in any of it but there are a lot of things to do if a person is interested And they have a happy hour or social couple of hours every day where you are entitled to have two free drinks alcoholic drinks Facility and staff are really good and friendly I have no complaints of the two years that I've been here There is a small inground pool and every apartment seems to have a balcony Food is good people left [community removed] because of the food and they are happy here. Probably half the people here were from [community removed]

They are continually improving. I could not have picked a better place to live as a senior retiree. I love this place and all of the residents and staff here. Activities are crucial. We have writing classes, art classes, water aerobics, chair volleyball tournaments, a music group, card games, mahjong, a walking group, local travel outings, Bingo games, relaxing in the Bistro or on that Bistro Patio, Birthday celebrations, live musical entertainment and so much more. The staff here is awesome and always ready with hugs.

We were one of the first in a new facility, it was clean, the food was great the staff was wonderful. Value was a little high but the staff and care was the value for us. Our loved one passed away not long ago but she was loved by the care givers and that was our peace .

My husband [name removed] has dementia and several physical problems. He has been at Indigo for 2 1/2 months after preceding care for two years in hospital, plus two other assisted living situations. Since his welcome to Indigo his mental outlook has improved, and his social contacts. He has increased interest in certain activities offered, including a night trip on the Indigo bus to enjoy Christmas lights and decorations in the surrounding area. And he's become a great fan of Bingo. He looks forward to his meals and has said to me "Think I'm gonna gain weight here." I can understand - I join him for a meal now and then. Our family members are not nearby, but they visit fairly often since they have a vacation home in the same beach community where I am presently living. They have been so pleased and encouraged on their visits when they see the changes in [name removed]. Our daughter simply says, "it's like night and day, Mom."

I know the staff has a very hard time with some of the patients but they do a good job. Definitely have a higher tolerance than I do I have been in the facility once and it had a bad smell I informed the staff and they responded very quickly. We discovered that one of patients had stopped in the middle of the hall and went to the bathroom. Maybe some air freshener would help

We are very happy with Indigo. My parents are together for now and they have a point system for extra care for my Mom. Eventually my Mom might need to go to Memory Care. We are hoping to keep my parents together for as long as possible! The staff is really trying to help my Dad and give him some breaks. They also counsel him on how to care for my Mom and how to talk to her so she doesn't get upset or how to calm her down when she does get upset. My family is also very helpful. Someone is there often. We all take turns.

We toured Indigo at Carolina Forest while visiting the Myrtle Beach area. We went in without an appointment and they rearranged their schedule to accommodate me and a friend. The facility looked new and was clean in all areas that we toured. We were impressed with the attitudes of the staff that we met during our tour, they were happy to see us, and that meant a lot to us, especially dropping in without an appointment. What was important to us was Indigo offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care. We love the Myrtle Beach area, and Indigo is at the top of our list in that area, our tour experience was excellent and we appreciated it.

Indigo shows love and care above and beyond any other senior Care Center they pride their selves in the value of taking care of the elderly and assisting the elderly that are able to get around They greet you with a smile, and have a thorough background of knowledge to provide for considering a new home. I would recommend indigo over any other in all of Horry County so if you want quality care, a loving and kind spirit, call indigo.
