Brightwater Assisted Living in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, delivers assisted living care that is structured to address both day-to-day support needs and specific medical requirements. Residents with diabetes receive monitoring and management assistance, including blood-glucose checks and coordination with prescribing physicians. The team is trained to recognize changes in condition quickly, ensuring interventions are timely and aligned with each resident’s care plan.
Complementing its assisted living program, Brightwater maintains on-site high-acuity care capabilities for residents whose health needs may increase over time. Staff handle incontinence management discreetly and can support individuals who are non-ambulatory, coordinating transfers and mobility assistance around the clock. Medication administration, routine vital-sign tracking, and communication with outside healthcare providers are built into the daily routine to help limit unnecessary hospital visits.
Accommodations include a selection of private and shared suites that open onto indoor common areas designed for socializing and therapy sessions. Rooms vary in layout and may have different combinations of safety grab bars, walk-in showers, or closet space, so prospective residents should confirm which features are available in the specific unit they are considering.
All residents receive three meals a day served in the community dining room, with options adjusted for personal preferences and physician-ordered diets, including carbohydrate-controlled choices for those managing diabetes. Snacks and beverages are available between meals, and the culinary team works with clinical staff to accommodate texture modifications or food allergies when required.
Daily life is supplemented by on-site activities that range from exercise classes to hobby groups, aimed at maintaining mobility and cognitive engagement. Transportation for scheduled outings, housekeeping, and linen services are also included to reduce burdens on residents and their families.
