Carriage House of Florence

Carriage House of Florence gives seniors a place to live with assisted living and memory care, and you'll find that the care plans get tailored to fit what each person actually needs, whether that means daily help with things like bathing, dressing, or managing medicine, or maybe more hands-on care with issues like diabetes or memory problems, and they've got a secured memory care section where folks who have a habit of wandering get bracelets so they don't end up lost, and the staff is around 24 hours a day, so if anything comes up, help is nearby. Residents get three meals a day, made by chefs with attention to nutrition, and there's housekeeping and laundry service, so no one has to worry about chores, plus they have both private and semi-private rooms, some with full tubs and wheelchair accessible showers, which makes things easier, and they let folks age in place, so when needs change, people can stay in their home. The building has indoor and outdoor spaces for gathering or activities, and you'll see folks enjoying social programs, games, or devotional activities, with a beautician on site so folks can get a haircut or their nails done without leaving, and for those who need to get to appointments or want a ride for errands or group outings, there's transportation provided. They let people smoke outdoors, and there's parking for residents, which can mean a lot for people who still drive or have visitors. The staff can handle just about any care need, from incontinence to diabetes care, and they accept folks with behavioral challenges in their secured memory care area, which isn't always the case everywhere, and if someone needs physical, speech, occupational therapy, or needs to see a nurse or doctor, visiting professionals come by, so residents don't have to go far for care. Carriage House also provides respite or short-term care if someone can't stay home for a while, and hospice care is also available, which gives families peace of mind. This place focuses on giving seniors a supportive living space where they can keep their independence as much as possible, but get the right help when it's needed, and you'll find the atmosphere is no-frills and honest, more about comfort and care than fancy extras.
