Viva Senior Living at Gaffney provides Assisted Living and Memory Care. Residents who choose Assisted Living receive help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, while still maintaining as much independence as possible. The Memory Care program is structured for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia and is delivered in a secured setting designed to reduce wandering and enhance safety. Short-term respite stays are also accepted, giving caregivers a break or allowing a resident to recover after an illness or hospital stay.
On-site medical support includes regular visits from nurses, medication management, diabetes monitoring, and incontinence care. Licensed physical, occupational, and speech therapists deliver therapy plans without residents having to leave the community. A podiatrist is available for routine foot care, and hospice services can be coordinated for those who need end-of-life support. The campus is a secured community with staff trained in dementia care, and ambulatory care is offered for residents who require assistance moving around safely.
Housing options include private and companion suites equipped with features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, handicap-accessible layouts, individual climate control, cable or satellite TV connections, Wi-Fi, and access to outdoor areas. Some units are close to on-site parking or near common areas like the piano lounge, while others prioritize quiet locations. Not every accommodation contains every listed feature, so families should verify specific room details during a tour.
Dining is provided three times daily in a restaurant-style setting, with all-day dining available for residents who prefer flexible meal times. The culinary team prepares menus that can accommodate low-sodium and no-sugar diets, and guest meals are offered so family members can dine with loved ones. Snacks are available throughout the day, and hydration stations are positioned in common areas to encourage adequate fluid intake.
Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, and organized clubs and communities. Daily fitness programs, yoga or chair yoga sessions, and guided walks on outdoor paths promote physical health. Social calendars include live music, karaoke, happy hours, dances, birthday celebrations, reminiscence and sensory-based programs, raised-bed gardening, and scheduled outings in the local area.
