Southland Health Care Center sits at 722 S Dargan Street in Florence, South Carolina, and has always tried to offer a steady and supportive place for folks in need of care because sometimes what people want, really, is a place where they feel safe and respected, and this center seems to focus on giving families a seat at the table with their resident Care Plan Teams so everyone stays in the loop. You'll find dayrooms, dining rooms, and enclosed courtyards so residents have places to relax, and there's both private and semi-private rooms, which means folks can pick if they want company or quiet. The call light system is modern, and there are fire alarms, security guards at night, and keypad door codes, so the safety part's not ignored at all.
Southland has a five-star rating, which is nice, but what's more practical is they take care of people who need skilled nursing, intermediate care, respite for a short break, palliative and hospice support during tough times, and they've got memory care too for people who need it. They run regular weekly activities, and you can see they're trying to make life a bit more cheerful, giving structure to the days without being overbearing. There's focus on giving folks choices, making sure residents can still make decisions about their own day-to-day, and the staff makes respect and compassion important, treating residents and their families kindly, which goes a long way. The administrator's named Carolyn Jones, and you can find more information on their website, where they say more about everything from nurse care to home healthcare and long-term options. For those who need caregiving support, the facility seems to cover a wide range of medical and daily needs, and you can also search by the center's name or by location if you're looking for options in Florence. Southland Health Care Center doesn't try to be too fancy, but it does work hard to bring a comfortable, secure, and patient-centered environment for people who need extra care at this time in their lives.
