Ridgeland Nursing Center, also known as Ridgeland Nursing and Rehab, sits at 1516 Grays Hwy in Ridgeland, SC, offering skilled nursing care with 88 beds, and it's got a long history in Jasper County, serving folks from Beaufort, Colleton, and Hampton counties too. The place is led by Administrator Janelle Greene, and the staff works every day to honor their motto, "GROW WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED," which is all about providing steady, quality care. Ridgeland offers long-term care, short-term stays, and respite care for people who need daily help, whether it's due to aging, surgery, or health issues, and the care team puts together personalized plans so each resident gets what fits them best. The in-house therapy department stands out because their therapists have over 30 years' combined experience, and they help with lots of needs-physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, post-surgical therapy, stroke and orthopedic rehab, even neurologic and amputee rehab, plus pain management and physical conditioning.
They've got a state-of-the-art therapy space and use new technology like motion sensors and senior-friendly apps to support the residents' progress, with therapy offered to both short-term rehab patients and those staying long-term. Meals are included and made with an eye on good nutrition and using quality ingredients, and there are personal care services for folks needing extra help. Ridgeland Nursing Center strives to keep life engaging, providing group outings to community events, activities that boost social and emotional wellness, and devotional activities for those who want them. Residents spend time in community areas indoors and can step outside to enjoy a quiet moment in the garden. The care team handles high acuity needs and can provide incontinence care, help for non-ambulatory folks, and support for those with diabetes. The facility sits right in the heart of the South Carolina Lowcountry, and its staff aims to keep the place welcoming, peaceful, and secure for everyone, doing their best so that everyone feels like they belong and get the support they need.
