Overall a good place
Overall it's a nice place. The facilities have not been kept up like it should have been, but they do have a new maintenance lead now. Hopefully that will help. Most of the staff are very courteous and friendly, and do a great job. In my opinion, the administrator is not a great manager. I managed people for over 30 years, and this administrator leaves a lot to be desired.

Potential to be a great facility
The Oaks is nicely and quietly situated well in Beaufort. The activity director is fabulous as well as a few select staff .
They are friendly and treat the residents with respect. It’s kept clean and my mom’s room is nice. The maintenance guy is top notch. A few glitches from time to time when short staffed . Medication dispensing delays etc . However the food service is not as stated in brochures and internet. It takes away drastically because it’s important. They do not have chef prepared meals . More like Chefboyardee . Emphasis needs to be placed on wise non processed foods. Fresh healthy nutrition to this age group . Less microwave and meatloaf. More roast beef and potatoes.
Also had ongoing issues with inaccurate accounting .

Not what it used to be
The Oaks was bought out by a corporation about a year and half ago. It was called [community removed] and since having my mother in there for a year it has declined. No housekeeping, no maintenance, and my mother hasn’t had a shower in 23 days as I type this. The staff are exhausted and overworked and are letting the family members know! They need help! I am so disappointed that corporate has not stepped in and provided help in trying to adequately staff the facility. Perhaps offering employees better wages and incentives would help-they are taking on new residents but not employees. The emergency call button system went out for two days and they gave them whistles to blow. My mother sat in urine for 32 minutes. A resident walked out through an unlocked door and she was found outside the next morning by a ditch. Thank God she was ok. These things have all occurred in the last MONTH!

Tour experience
The Oaks at Salem Road does not have a memory unit and had not been renovated for some time. I felt my mom would be in a memory unit in the next few years. . The Individual at Oaks at Salem Road who gave the tour was new and, in my opinion, not well suited to leading tours yet.

So impressed
So impressed with all the staff, their kindness and professionalism. They are so positive and really understand what their clients are experiencing. I can pick up the phone to call and talk to [name removed] and it doesn't matter which one answers. My parents are happy and we are at rest knowing they are in excellent hands. Just wish we could clone them and set up in St Louis for another loved one of mine.

Excellent community
What really stood out to us was the cleanliness of the community and just the lay out - it is really nice and all the staff members have been good to work with. The only reason the care services got a 4 out of 5, is sometimes our loved one does not want to cooperative when it comes to bathing, but we would still recommend this community to other families.

Nice place, friendly staff!
Overall I think they do a good job at Morningside of Beaufort! The staff here is friendly and caring, and they do a great job looking out for the people who live here. My only complaint is that I think they are a little understaffed. The people they do have work hard, but a few more would really help!

Worth it.
I moved my Mother to Morningside over 2 years ago. I am one of 3 children, but the only care giver. Yes Morningside is a bit pricey, but I do not know what I would do without them. I want my Mother in a premium care facility where she receives the utmost in care. This facility has never...not once...let me down. With my work schedule I may pop in at 2 pm or 2 am...never announced. Not once have I discovered anything questionable or out of line regarding her care and well being. Expensive, but worth every penny. You get what you pay for.

Not the right place for us.
I came and toured here when I was looking around. I was not overly impressed. I didn't get the feeling when I walked in that this would be mom's home. I didn't think she would like it. When I walked in I got the feeling that I was interrupting them. I realize that they are busy, but I knew it wasn't the place for my mom. They weren't rude, they were nice, but I didn't get that we're glad you came feeling.

Friendly staff!
They’re pretty expensive, but I guess all of them are. The staff is so friendly – that’s the biggest thing that stood out for me and my family. We got to try the food and it was okay. There is enough parking.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the South Carolina regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about South Carolina regulations for Assisted Living.
