Overview of Care with Love

Care with Love provides home care and skilled nursing in North Charleston, in the Nafair II neighborhood. Home care includes private personal care and medical care, so people can receive help with daily needs and health services in their own residence. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.

The community has five beds and is at 100% occupancy, so no bed is currently listed as open. Rehabilitation services are available for residents who need recovery or functional support.

Medicare is accepted, which can help cover short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence. Hattie Feilds serves as the administrator, and Sheila Nelson operates the community; the five bed setting may suit someone who prefers a smaller community and needs either home care or skilled nursing.

Two different residents end up at Greenville Post Acute in Greenville, South Carolina. One has dementia; the other is a family needing a few weeks of cover. Memory care, respite, skilled nursing, and nursing home care sit on the license, across 132 beds.

Memory care means supervision for someone who can get lost on a familiar route. Licensed nursing holds the floor at any hour. Somebody who cannot say what is wrong needs a person who notices.

Respite runs short, for a household whose caregiver must travel or recover. It also works as a trial run, with a way out if it proves wrong. Nursing runs to 3 hours and 29 minutes a day per resident.

Money reaches the home three ways: Medicare, Medicaid, and the family. Medicare needs a qualifying hospital stay first; Medicaid helps when savings fall short; the rest is paid directly.

Rehabilitation covers therapy in recovery. Grant Dixon is the administrator. This suits a resident with dementia and a household arranging temporary support.
