About Rice Estate

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Rice Estate in Columbia, South Carolina, offers assisted living designed for residents who need help with daily tasks while still valuing their independence. Staff members are on-site around the clock to provide scheduled and unscheduled assistance with activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, allowing residents to maintain as much autonomy as possible.

In addition to routine assistance, Rice Estate prioritizes specific medical needs. The community supports diabetes management through blood-sugar monitoring and assistance with insulin administration as ordered by a physician. On-site incontinence care helps residents maintain comfort and dignity, while ambulatory support assists those who use mobility aids or need steadying when walking, reducing the risk of falls.

Private and companion suites are available, and many feature views of landscaped outdoor areas where residents can relax or socialize. Not every apartment includes every feature, so prospective residents are encouraged to verify details such as square footage, bathroom configurations, and patio access during a tour.

Three daily meals are prepared and served in the community dining room, with menus designed to meet general nutritional guidelines and physician-ordered diets, including those for diabetes. Staff members offer assistance for residents who need help cutting food or managing portion sizes, and snacks are available between meals.

Recreational programming centers on an activity room where residents can join exercise sessions, arts and crafts, educational talks, and social gatherings, giving everyone a convenient place to stay engaged without leaving the property.

Residents and their families say:

This community is frequently praised for its welcoming and home-like atmosphere, which is noted by many as creating a sense of family among residents and staff. A number of reviewers mention the long tenure and dedication of the employees, highlighting their satisfaction and strong commitment to working there. The positive environment seems to extend to the residents, with reports of engaging activities and excellent care, fostering a community where happiness and enjoyment are prevalent. Residents and their families appreciate the clean, spacious facilities, and the presence of amenities like a library, activity room, and chapel. The presence of a 24/7 nursing staff is highlighted as a significant advantage, providing peace of mind to those who are independently living but desire the security of available medical assistance.

On the positive side, many reviewers commend the quality of the food, noting it as an important and enjoyable aspect of living at this community. The dining experience is enhanced by helpful and kind staff, contributing to an overall positive dining experience. The consistent praise for the food indicates that recent improvements have been well received, especially given that multiple reviews highlight this as a standout feature. While the caring and professional nature of the staff is a recurrent theme, the community's activities and rehabilitation services also receive high marks, with specific mention of a full schedule of engaging options for residents.

Despite the numerous positives, some reviews mention complaints about the food in the past, but also indicate recent improvements. Mention is made of the difference that quality meals can make in the day-to-day lives of residents, underscoring the importance of such changes. The single negative aspect raised more than once was concerning previous food service issues, suggesting that while there has been improvement, this was a point of contention in the past for some residents.
