Care
Assisted Living
A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.
Independent Living
Designed to help older adults who want to maintain an active and independent lifestyle, these communities offer services and amenities that cater to residents’ needs, while encouraging a sense of community and freedom from the responsibilities of owning a home.
Memory Care
Memory care communities offer specialized care and support for individuals dealing with memory-related conditions, such as Alzheimer’s or dementia. These facilities are equipped with trained staff and offer engaging activities designed to promote well-being while ensuring a safe living environment.
Life Plan/CCRCs
Also referred to as Life Plan Communities, these communities offer a comprehensive continuum of care for residents. CCRCs offer multiple levels of care, allowing seniors to transition between independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing care as their needs change throughout their aging journey.
Active Adult
Active adult communities are vibrant residential neighborhoods designed specifically for individuals typically 55 and older. These communities offer a range of amenities, as well as recreational and social activities.
Senior Apartments
Senior apartments are designed for older adults, featuring amenities and services. These apartments offer a maintenance-free lifestyle with access to social activities, promoting active living and independence.
Skilled Nursing
Skilled nursing and nursing homes are residential facilities that offer medical care and support for individuals that require a higher level of medical attention and assistance. These are staffed by licensed healthcare providers and offer a range of services to ensure the well-being and comfort of residents.
Home Care
Home care typically offers nonclinical support for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) like bathing and dressing, as well as Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) such as transportation, meal preparation, and medication reminders, all provided in the comfort of one’s home.

My mother has lived at Brightwater, Myrtle Beach, for about 4 years. She is in independent living but has occasional, regular help from home care. Overall, her and my experience with Brightwater has been 5 star. They have plenty of activities for the residents. The staff members in housekeeping and dining go the extra mile to get to know the residents and their wants and needs. The building and grounds are well maintained; the maintenance staff are quick and efficient. My mother recently turned 100 and our family celebrated with a large party. The Brightwater staff organized this complete with food, drink and entertainment. It was a great event. I highly recommend Brightwater if you or a family member is looking for a senior living experience.

Brightwater is 1st class in everything they do. And the only true continuum of care in the Myrtle Beach area. Don’t get fooled by other senior independent living communities thinking they will compare or exceed what Brightwater is able to deliver. Operationally, no one else around here can touch Brightwater. Turnover amongst staff is near non existent. Brightwater is creating something really special over in the Carolina Forest area right now, and I would take full advantage of your opportunity to secure a life there sooner rather than later.

When I knew that I was ready to make a move to a retirement community, I chose to go to Brightwater. I had taken a tour years ago and knew that when I was ready, that was the place I wanted to go to. My decision to go now was a great one. I'm very happy that my life is much easier and still be active if I choose to be. I don't need to cook or clean. It's done for me. I'm in!!

Brightwater is by far the best senior living community in the Grand Strand area. And the only true CCRC in Horry County. I’m so impressed with staff there. They truly run a tight ship from independent living through all the care services like assisted, memory, and skilled nursing. They provide such a great quality of life for those aging, and a place to do it with dignity. Great job Brightwater!
