Summit Place of North Myrtle Beach in Little River, SC, offers two primary levels of support: Assisted Living for residents who need help with daily activities and Memory Care for those coping with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. Short-term Respite stays are available, giving caregivers a break or residents a trial period. Licensed therapists deliver Physical Therapy on site, and a structured Mental Wellness Program encourages emotional balance. Routine wellness checks help staff track each resident’s health status and adjust care plans as needed.
Additional medical resources are built into everyday life. Nurses are present 12 to 16 hours a day, backed by a team trained in medication management, diabetes monitoring, speech therapy, and occupational therapy. Laundry and dry-cleaning services reduce daily burdens, while the secured layout relies on keyed entries and a visitor sign-in protocol to help control access. These features support both the Assisted Living and Memory Care neighborhoods, giving residents and families a consistent layer of oversight.
Accommodation choices include studio and efficiency floor plans, some with kitchenettes, washers and dryers, or private outdoor areas. Cable television, Wi-Fi, and utilities are included in select units, and parking is available for those who still drive. A library and computer lounge, suburban surroundings, and opportunities for intergenerational programs add to the residential feel. Because layouts vary, not every apartment has every feature listed, so prospective residents should confirm details during a visit.
Dining is designed to meet varied nutritional needs. Three daily meals are prepared with options for low-sodium, low-sugar, vegetarian, kosher, and gluten-free diets. All-day dining, healthy snacks, and a range of beverages remain accessible so residents can eat on their own schedules. The culinary team can accommodate special diets as ordered by physicians, supporting the broader wellness goals of the community.
Residents can take part in health and wellness programs, arts and crafts sessions, speaker series events, men’s groups, and club meetings. Regular social outings, game and movie nights, and an on-site activity center provide additional engagement. These offerings help residents stay mentally and physically active while fostering community connections.
