Overview of The Woodlands at Furman The Woodlands at Furman is a continuing care retirement community in Greenville, SC, with independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing in a nursing home setting. Having these care levels on one campus may suit someone whose needs grow over time, because moving among services can take place within the community.
Independent living offers private living with community services and no daily care. Assisted living helps with daily tasks, memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, and skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.
Housing includes one bedroom, two bedroom, and three bedroom apartments, as well as cottages and private rooms. A two bedroom or three bedroom apartment can work well for someone moving with a companion, while a private room offers a single room arrangement; Respite care provides a short stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Rehabilitation services and therapy gyms allow residents to receive therapy on site instead of traveling elsewhere. Activities include Osher Lifelong Learning Institute classes and lectures, day trips, cultural events, hiking and walking trails, golf at Furman University Golf Club, and Furman University music performances and athletic events. Dining is served buffet style, with vegetarian and gluten free options, and the enclosed courtyard provides a designated place for walking.
