Overview of Brightwater Assisted Living

Brightwater Assisted Living is a privately-owned senior living community in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, offering assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and short-term rehabilitation. Licensed as a Community Residential Care Facility (CRCF) with 56 beds, the community is owned by Brightwater Retirement LLC and administered by David Dunn, with management affiliated with the Maxwell Group. Medicare and private-pay arrangements are also accepted. Notably, the community received six national awards, a distinction that places it among the more highly recognized senior living providers in the Grand Strand market.

CMS ratings position the community well above South Carolina averages overall, with particularly strong performance in staffing measures. Moreover, total nursing care hours average five hours per resident per day, exceeding statewide benchmarks and ranking among the stronger staffing levels among skilled nursing communities in the state. Weekend nursing coverage and staff-to-resident ratio also significantly outperform the South Carolina average. Health inspection scores are similarly above statewide benchmarks, reflecting generally favorable regulatory performance.

Since 2022, the community has received 15 health citations, including two categorized as critical in severity. While this exceeds the South Carolina average for critical citations, no serious citations were identified, and all deficiencies have been corrected. Additionally, a civil money penalty was issued in July 2023, substantially below the South Carolina average penalty amount, and no payment denials were reported.

Several long-stay quality indicators compare favorably with state averages, with measures related to declines in daily living activities, urinary tract infection rates, and vaccination coverage performing particularly well. Other measures, including rates of bowel and bladder incontinence, falls with major injury, and pressure ulcers, were also above state averages and can be worthwhile discussion points for families evaluating care needs and clinical oversight.

An indoor heated therapy pool, secured courtyard spaces, wellness classes, concierge services, transportation assistance, a professional salon, pet-friendly accommodations, and a 24-hour emergency response system are among the amenities available. Dining services are made-to-order restaurant-style meals.

Combining elevated staffing levels, rehabilitation-focused amenities, and broad care offerings, Brightwater Assisted Living is well-suited for older adults seeking rehabilitation, assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care services within a highly staffed and amenity-rich environment in the Myrtle Beach area, particularly families exploring Medicare-supported or private-pay senior care options.

Standout metric Registered Nurse (RN) is +78% above state avg

Staff type	Hours / Day / Resident	vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.	1h 7m per day	▲ 78% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.	1h 19m per day	▲ 31% State avg: 1h 0m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.	3h 11m per day	▲ 43% State avg: 2h 13m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.	4h 58m per day	▲ 48% State avg: 3h 22m per day · National avg: 3h 27m per day
Physical Therapist Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.	8m per day	▲ 62% State avg: 5m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.	44m per day	▲ 73% State avg: 25m per day · National avg: 29m per day
