.A bit over 4 years ago we realized that mom and dad needed to be closer to either my sister in Fort Lauderdale or here in SC. They lived in Springhill Florida which was 7 1/2 hours from me and 6 1/2 hours from my sister...way to far in case of emergencies or if they need help.\r
My husband and I went ""shopping"" for places for them. We looked at lots of different communities, brought them to SC along with my sister and had tours. Then let them narrow it down to two. I then arranged for them to come and stay at both places for a few days so they could experience living in both places.\r
Mom and dad immediately felt welcomed and ""at home"" at Somerby. This April 2014 will be be 3 years for them.\r
I am at Somerby frequently to assist mom and dad and I am so impressed with staff and residents being so friendly. The culinary staff know what they like,know how to set my dad's plate up (he is blind-they know to explain where things are on his plate--straw in his cups--ect) All of the servers know the residents names and their likes and dislikes. Housekeeping staff are very friendly and take genuine care of their apartments. The executive Director is very approachable and is seen out and about the campus sharing meals,talking to residents and helping out whenever needed.\r
Somerby offers so many amenities to enjoy and a safe and caring environment. \r
My parents,my sister and my self are so thankful for finding Somerby---a warm, friendly, caring, and beautiful retirement community.\r
THANK-YOU Somerby of Mount Pleasant!!!
