Physical Rehabilitation and Wellness Center of Spartanburg
Physical Rehabilitation and Wellness Center of Spartanburg is a 120-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility administered by Andy Clements in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Owned by THI of South Carolina at Magnolia Place at Spartanburg LLC in Spartanburg County, the facility serves a mix of short-stay rehabilitation and long-term care residents. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Average stay is 129 days, with 77.7 percent of current residents on Medicaid. Occupancy stands at 90.3 percent, above South Carolina’s 82.1 percent average.
CMS grades the facility 1 star, with all four sub-categories trailing the state average. 33 total health citations across seven inspections since 2021 rank the facility 111th of 113 South Carolina nursing homes, against a state average of 13.7 citations. 7 citations arose from complaint investigations. The inspection record includes 1 critical citation and 1 serious citation, with resident rights accounting for 9 of the 33 total deficiencies. 2 civil money penalties totaling $10,000 were assessed in November 2024. Contractor staffing accounts for 40 percent of all staff hours, including around 82 percent of RN hours, 70 percent of LPN hours, and 79 percent of CNA hours, representing significant reliance on agency labor that directly affects the 1-star staffing sub-rating. Total nursing hours reach 3 hours 17 minutes per resident per day, 20 percent below the South Carolina average of 4 hours 5 minutes. The long-stay quality measures contrast meaningfully with the inspection and staffing record: CMS rates long-stay performance as significantly above average. Hospitalizations run at 1.37 per 1,000 long-stay resident days, 33 percent better than the South Carolina average of 2.03, and ED visits at 0.63 per 1,000 days are 67 percent better than the state figure. Falls with major injury at 1.5 percent are 49 percent below the state average. Walking ability worsened at 27.7 percent of long-stay residents is 71 percent above the state benchmark, the most significant adverse long-stay measure.
Physical Rehabilitation and Wellness Center of Spartanburg suits families in Spartanburg County who find long-stay hospital avoidance and fall prevention data compelling but should weigh that against the 1-star overall rating, the inspection history in resident rights and pharmacy services, and the heavy reliance on contract staffing.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in South Carolina
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in South Carolina?
Assisted living in South Carolina supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in South Carolina?
Assisted living in South Carolina is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does South Carolina Medicaid cover assisted living?
South Carolina Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including South Carolina) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 237 assisted living facilities in South Carolina. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in South Carolina?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in South Carolina, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in South Carolina?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
