The staff and residents are super friendly. There are lots of activities, and they are awesome for the residents. The breakfast is available Monday through Friday, and this is awesome for us. On Wednesdays they offer a happy hour, and they even include some appetizers.

Dayspring Assisted Living in Hollywood, SC
4.4

The caregivers at Dayspring were one of the reasons we chose this community. They are wonderful and very good with the residents. This is a smaller community so the ratio of caregivers to residents is higher. They could use a few more activities. The food is good and they keep the community very clean. This community gets my recommendation.
