    Going from living independently to becoming a resident of an assistant living facility was difficult for my mother. However, the administration helped my brother and I navigate a very difficult time with patience and professionalism. Mom is now feeling at home and we are so delighted that she is happy. The activities are wonderful, the food is great but most of all the staff is wonderful. They are friendly and loving and really took the time to get to know mom and she really enjoys her interactions with them. Her room is spacious and comfortable and she has everything she needs.

    We visited 5 assisted living communities in our area and decided on The Addison of West Ashley. Why? When you enter the front door, there is great music and friendly faces! Staff and residents greet you with a smile and a “hello”! The atmosphere is welcoming, tidy and decorated for the season or the theme of an activity/event. The apartments work with lighting and spacious for your personal furnishings, to make it your loved one’s new home. It’s all on one level! No elevators! Small enough that everyone gets to know everyone, which is wonderful and welcoming. The calendar is full of daily activities that give residents a reason to leave their apartment! Services! The hair salon, stylist, Janice Thorne is amazing, uplifting the residents with a great cut and style! My mother looks forward to going and her hair looks great! After my mother’s first appointment, a male resident walks by and says, “Hey newbie, looking good!” Which made her smile and feel good! Happy Hour every Thursday is never a dull moment! Great, safe area to walk outside, beautiful courtyards for sitting, socializing or maybe gardening! Movie room is relaxing and comfortable featuring a variety of movies to enjoy. There’s always a jigsaw puzzle challenging residents and visitors! The food smells amazing and my mother now eats 3 meals a day plus there is always nibbles in the kitchen for residents to enjoy. It’s a place where my mother is safe, active and happy.

    My mother recently moved to The Addison and is thriving. The attention she receives and the endless activities have improved her confidence and well-being. Tasha, Jennifer, Robin, and Renee have all been very supportive. The staff is very friendly and know my mother by name.

    My pops moved in a few months ago and the transition went smoothly. He is a very independent person, and the Addison allows him to stay this way but with a little help from the friendly staff. They are truly a caring bunch of professionals. Thank you for giving us peace of mind knowing he is well taken care of.

    Our experience with Addison of West Ashley began after a long hospital stay followed by an even longer rehabilitation stay, so this transition came at an already difficult and emotional time. Moving a loved one into assisted living under those circumstances is never easy, especially when there are cognitive concerns and a lot of adjustment involved. From the start, Tasha in sales was professional, friendly, compassionate, and incredibly helpful throughout the process. After visiting several assisted living communities, I especially appreciated that this is a smaller, single-level community that feels more personal, along with how clean and well-kept it is. The outdoor spaces are a standout, with lovely courtyards that offer a peaceful setting. The activities director is also warm and engaging and clearly puts a great deal of effort into creating meaningful opportunities for the residents. The front-facing staff have consistently been kind, welcoming, and attentive, which makes a real difference for both residents and their families. Communication was a bit challenging during the first couple of weeks, particularly with the wellness director at the time, who was difficult to reach. Since then, there has been a change, and the interim wellness director has been responsive and very helpful, which has been reassuring. I have not personally tried the food, though I’ve heard mixed feedback. That said, I also understand that taste buds can change as we age, so that may be part of the experience. Maybe some improvement could be made. Overall, this community has many positive qualities, especially in the people who interact most with residents and families on a daily basis. One area where there could be improvement is weekend staffing, as additional support during those times would be beneficial. It would also be helpful for all staff to wear clearly visible name badges at all times. As staffing becomes more consistent, a printed guide with staff photos and titles could
