Zeigler Street Community Residence sits on Zeigler Street in Bamberg, about 17 miles from Orangeburg, South Carolina, and gives a small, home-like setting with care for seniors who want both independence and support. The facility holds nine residents, offering single bedrooms, furnished studio units, and shared quarters, where everyone gets a bit of privacy along with shared common spaces like a dining room, a communal kitchen, and a peaceful garden for walking paths or outdoor relaxation. Folks can expect help with bathing, dressing, medication management, using the bathroom, moving around, and day-to-day chores if needed, and the staff is always awake and around day or night to give a hand or keep an eye out.
The place handles things like Parkinson's care, spoon feeding, two-person transfers, mealtime help, and special programs for dementia including dementia-friendly meals and intervention programs. Residents get three homemade meals a day and menu options that support special diets for diabetes or high blood pressure, and the on-site dietitian can help sort out dietary restrictions. There's also a pharmacy, wellness center, massage therapy, traveling barber, hair salon, and housekeeping services, so most needs get taken care of under one roof. Laundry and move-in help are available, and there's an emergency alert system in every unit for safety.
Community events, like movie nights, music programs, pet therapy, creative classes, board games, and arts & crafts, help keep minds sharp and give everyone a chance to socialize. The library has plenty of books, and residents can use wi-fi through the building, or relax in outdoor spaces and attend community evening events. Zeigler Street Community Residence supports transportation for errands, trips to the doctor, or faith-based activities. The staff prepares daily workouts, music and art, as well as regularly scheduled activities. Seniors who may need help with hygiene, transfers, insulin support, or incontinence management find the help they need in a quiet, steady way.
The licensed facility, classified as assisted living with board and care home services, supports both English-speaking residents and those who need more hands-on support with daily tasks. It aims to give a safe, comfortable spot for elders looking for dignity, independence, and a sense of community, without any pressure or fuss.
