The Meridian at Carolina Lakes
The Meridian at Carolina Lakes offers assisted living, memory care, and nursing care in Indian Land, SC. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident lives in a private apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while nursing care serves residents who need ongoing nursing support.
Having all three care types in one community suits a resident whose needs may grow over time without requiring a move to a different community. The Meridian at Carolina Lakes has 117 beds, with studios, one-bedroom apartments, and two-bedroom apartments; the two-bedroom option can accommodate a couple or companion. The community is in the Old Point Station neighborhood, and a Walk Score of 42 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride. A resident who no longer drives would need transportation for those trips. Pets are allowed, Mary L. Brakefield serves as the administrator, and Msa Fort Mill Operating operates the community.
