Franke at Seaside is a continuing care retirement community in Mt Pleasant, SC, with independent living, assisted living, memory care, hospice care, nursing home care and skilled nursing. Independent living offers private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with dressing, bathing and medications. Memory care is provided in a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.
Nursing home and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Hospice care focuses on comfort for residents at the end of life, and rehabilitation services are available for therapy during recovery or to help maintain function. Having several care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time without requiring a move elsewhere.
The community has 44 beds, creating a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know one another. Residents have private rooms rather than shared rooms, and total nurse staffing is 4 hours 43 minutes per resident per day. Medicare and private pay are accepted. A Walk Score of 53 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may still be able to complete certain nearby errands independently. Sandy A. Stoll serves as administrator, and Lutheran Homes Of South Carolina operates Franke at Seaside.
