Disappointed

They changed owners and to be honest I don't like this facility anymore. They need more help and they need a new activity director.

My mom is a feisty handful, and the staff here handle her so well. I thought my mom would give me hard time when I left her there but she didn’t . Thank you staff for taking care of my mama!!!

Mona, thank you for your wonderful review! That’s such a beautiful testament to the care and kindness of the staff! It’s never easy entrusting a loved one to others, but knowing your mom is in such capable and compassionate hands must be a huge comfort. Wishing her happiness and the staff continued strength and gratitude for all they do.

great place

I cannot say enough good about Orangeburg Memory Care. Everyone has been incredibly helpful, kind, supportive and a great guide through placing my mom. Orangeburg is clean, bright and warm. I loved when we first explored my mom living there, how the residents were happy and relaxed. Placing my mom was not an easy decision, the Administrator has been so clear, professional and genuine in her role to help me make this decision. Such wonderful individuals working there, and I feel so fortunate my mom is safe, cared fo

Review for Orangeburg Memory Care

When I toured the place it looked clean and smelled clean and I watched how everyone treated the residents and they were so good with the residents. I just felt so comfortable having my dad live there. I would recommend to others. They treat me and my dad like family.

Orangeburg Memory Care

So far my experience with Orangeburg has really been great. The people working there are friendly, helpful and really in tune with the patients. I’ve spent a lot of time there these first few months and love my husband being there. The activities they provide are fun and they are great at getting everyone involved. I like the way it is setup with the day room and dinning. Also the big patio with lots of room for walking. I would highly recommended this facility.

Caring and Compassionate

When I was considering Orangeburg, [name removed], the director, called me to see if I had any questions. She was so sensitive and was a gentle shoulder to cry on. The next day, she and the staff nurse, [name removed], drove an hour and a half to my home to do an assessment of my hisband and to tell me more about Orangeburg. I knew right then I was going to pick Orangeburg and I cancelled the other appointment. I find the place to be clean and professional. The food is healthy. It is a small place which is great fo
