I selected The Charleston Senior Living community for my loved one after my first visit. The staff was exceptional in taking my family and I on a tour of the facility and explaining all of the services that are provided. I was pleased with the facility, the services, and the staff. My loved one has been in place for the last 3 month and has adjusted well. No matter what position staffing holds, they are all very pleasant and attentive. The facility is clean and well maintained. Housekeeping empties the trash in the residents rooms daily and cleans their rooms weekly. Laundry is completed (if selected) weekly. The room sizes are adequate for one person. I had read on previous reviews that the rooms were small, however, I find the rooms are adequate for the resident as long as you don’t over furnish. The food is phenomenal!! I am very pleased with all of my interactions at The Charleston and think the fees are reasonable and practical for the services obtained. I would highly recommend!... Read more

My mom and the rest of the family were very impressed with the facility and staff of Charleston Senior Community. My mom became very ill right before she moved, but Charleston staff stepped up immediately to give her the care she needed. They were very responsive and made the transition so calming and reassuring to all of us. I would highly recommend this community!

This is a private facility and thought it would be a little more better in the sense of having funds to facilitate activities and quality of care for residents. My family member is in memory care. There are less than 20 people up there. THey can't keep whose clothes go to who after washing them. Between the residents and employees they steal. How do you steal a lamp out of someone's room and not think it would be missed or if you took it out for safety reasons you could inform the family. I asked about it and haven't seen the return of it yet. He has dementia but is still aware to a degree what is going on. Again, I expected better they give a good presentation up front but once in there something different. Should not be when you are paying over 3k a month!

Really a nice place. They have so much to offer. This is my top pick so far. Clean no smells and my top pick, however the cost is the most expensive.

My mother moved in here 5 months ago. The care here varies quite a bit. I would suggest this place for ambulatory seniors who are still able to care for themselves. There are some very nice aides and occasionally some that don’t care much. We were misinformed about the ratio of aides per resident ( which includes med techs, and the nurses in the nurses station). By law I believe they have the legal amount necessary but not nearly enough for what a lot of residents need. My mom has waited several hours on occasion to be assisted. Luckily for my mom I visit her every day and handle things that would never be dealt with. And being here every day, I’ve never seen the facility director out of his office. Never in the dining room, residents rooms or anywhere talking to the residents.

The tour went very well. There is a wide range of activities to choose from and be involved with. The rooms are very accommodating. There are numerous sitting areas to either watch television or areas designated to just sit and talk/socialize with others. The dining area is very large with many tables. The staff was friendly.

We like this community for the great care that is being received. The staff is nice and caring. We like the cleanliness and the fun environment. They have activities out of the community. We like that they have nice trips away from the community. The community is clean and we like that she is happy here in here the new home. We would recommend the care at this community for other families.

This place was really nice. The staff seemed friendly. There is plenty for residents to do. The rooms are also nice, just enough space for what my mom needs. Seems like mostly everything that the seniors need is right there in the building.

Mom is doing well at the Charleston. I am pleased with the care she is receiving. The people are very friendly and helpful. My only negative comment is that on a few occasions she has waited almost an hour for her meal to be served and it has been cold. That being said, I am happy with the care and sleep easy at night knowing she is safe and well cared for.

I am very happy with my decision to chose The Charleston Senior Community for my father. The place is kept clean at all times. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The meals are very good. They are cooked by a chef and the dining room is set up very fancy. The place looks and feels like a fancy hotel. I have already recommended them to friends and will continue to do so.

This is a nice clean community. The staff is great, but small improvements with w the nurses could be worked on. The rooms are a little on the small side. Activities are offered to help stay active. I would recommend this community for a short stay for others.
