The license at The Oaks of Orangeburg in Orangeburg, SC, is for nursing home care, assisted living, independent living, and home care. Under nursing home care, licensed nursing is what the designation requires the community to provide. In assisted living, bathing, medication, and dressing, along with other daily tasks, are helped with by staff, while the apartment remains the resident’s.
Independent living keeps the private space and drops the daily care. Home care goes out to the address a person already lives at, rather than requiring someone to move in to receive care.
The daily nursing time figure here is 3 hours and 20 minutes per resident, averaged out over all the 122 beds. The housing comes as suites, and a pet may move in with a resident.
Payment is accepted via private pay, Medicaid, and Medicare.
With four care levels licensed together, a family that anticipates needing more care in the future but is unable to predict when it will be needed has somewhere to start here.
