What should I check first at a Greenville memory care unit?
Confirm DPH's data flags the building for an Alzheimer's special care unit, then ask for the written disclosure South Carolina's Alzheimer's Special Care Disclosure Act requires, the overnight staffing on the secured area, and how the facility decides when a resident must move.
South Carolina applies its general CRCF staffing minimum, one staff member per eight residents at peak hours and one per 30 off-peak, to memory care as well, so the overnight number is the one to press. No published memory care price exists for Greenville; ask for a written quote.
