The Palmettos
Operated by NHC Place-Charleston LLC, The Palmettos sits in Charleston’s West Ashley neighborhood, roughly 8 miles from the city center, on a single-story campus administered by Kalyn Huether. It houses 60 occupants and offers assisted living and memory care on the same campus, allowing residents whose cognitive needs evolve to stay rather than relocate to another facility.
Living units span from 250 to 386 square feet and are offered in studio and one-bedroom floor plans. Pets are welcome, allowing residents to keep their animal companionship. Standard amenities include fitness and recreation programs and transportation services for occupants needing them. What sets The Palmettos apart is a dedicated Alzheimer’s unit with care structured and tailored for memory health, instead of treating cognitive decline as an incidental service addition. This means residents with a memory care diagnosis have an environment and support centered on their specific needs. The West Ashley neighborhood has a Walk Score of 46. Some errands are walkable, but a car or the home’s transportation service is needed for most daily trips.
