My mom's caregiver, Caprice, never fails to do an outstanding job in making sure Mom is well taken care of. Caprice always makes sure that there is someone there to take care of Mom when she isn't able to come herself. Thank you so much, Caprice, for the effort you put into your care!
When care was needed for my dad, we called Ashley at Amada Senior Care Charleston for assistance. Ashley was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. It is wonderful to have this type of support when your family is in need of additional assistance for a loved one. Thank you, Ashley and Amada Charleston!
We have depended on Amada Senior Care these past four years because the quality of service has been excellent. After having a stroke and six weeks of rehab, my mother was able to return home. Being that I live three hours away, it has been such a blessing to know that Mom is looked after by professional, caring, and skilled caregivers. She required help with everything at first, but since her needs during her journey to recovery were met with Amanda’s caregivers and management effectively encouraging her, she’s back to doing things she loves. Her current caregiver of two years, Kelly, brings a positive and joyful attitude every time she is on shift!
Count on Matt and Ashley at Amada Senior Care to provide confidence and peace of mind knowing your loved one is being well taken care of and cared for. I am a local physician who didn't think twice when entrusting Matt and Ashley and their quality care. These owners not only are very reliable but also have great communication and this makes it easy to work with them.
Caprice is a very understanding woman who does very well taking care of clients. Very wonderful service.
Our family has been very impressed with Amada Senior Care's management. We have used home care agencies for the past few years for my mother. Amada sets itself apart from all of the other agencies by the way they run their business. The management and the owners ensure their outstanding service by taking a personal approach. They are truly far more organized and respectful of the needs of their clients than any other company we have worked with.
Senior Housing Advising
When seniors or their loved ones begin to feel that they require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs, it may be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community.
This is an emotional decision for everyone involved, and our goal at Amada Senior Care in Charleston is to guide families through the placement process with wisdom, empathy and competence.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, may be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home or different type of care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care Charleston has years of experience with senior care in Awendaw, Cainhoy, Charleston, Daniel Island, Edisto Island, Goose Creek, Huger, Isle of Palms, James Island, Johns Island, Kiawah Island, Ladson, McClellanville, Moncks Corner, Mt. Pleasant, North Charleston, Ravenel, Ridgeville, Sullivan’s Island, Summerville, Wadmalaw Island, Walterboro, and surrounding communities.. As a result, we have deep knowledge of all local care communities and can make sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We also rely on our extensive experience to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Charleston team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
When in-home care is no longer ideal for our clients, we are honored to guide them through this next phase. Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Senior care homes
- Skilled nursing facilities
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
