Ivy Grove Assisted Living sits at 483 Lockhart Lane in Gaffney, South Carolina, and doesn't get much bigger than six residents, which means people can expect a quieter, more personal setting compared to larger places. The rooms come roomy, furnished, and have private bathrooms, cable TV, telephones, kitchenettes, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi high-speed internet, so everyone's pretty comfortable, and the building itself is set up for safety, with an emergency alert system and 24-hour supervision. Folks get help with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, medication management, and daily chores like laundry and housekeeping, and there's always a nurse around for about 12-16 hours a day, plus staff on duty day and night. Memory care is available for residents with dementia or Alzheimer's, in a supervised, secure area so people stay engaged but still safe, and the place can handle non-ambulatory or diabetic needs, incontinence, and offers diabetic and general health care.
Meals are made fresh by a chef, three times a day, with choices for different diet needs like diabetes, allergies, and high blood pressure, and for those who don't like being limited, there are all-day dining options. Residents enjoy a range of activities, including music and fitness programs, movie nights, arts and crafts, games, animal therapy, and activities both inside and outside, with garden paths for walks and spots for outdoor relaxation, and a library, reading room, hot tub, steam room, game rooms, and a wellness area are all part of the amenities. There's help getting to doctor appointments, running errands, or attending spiritual activities, and for folks staying temporarily, respite and hospice care are both available. Hair care is covered by a mobile stylist or hairdresser who visits regularly, and laundry and housekeeping are included, making the day-to-day easier. Ivy Grove's care plans get adjusted to whatever each resident needs as things change, and the whole setup aims to promote comfort, independence, and a homey feel, aimed toward active, mature adults who like a safe environment and don't want to feel rushed or crowded. Evenings might include social events, games, music, or just sitting out in the gardens, while the community's staff keep everyone's health and well-being as the focus through a nurturing, steady approach.
