The Palmettos is owned and operated as a division of National HealthCare Corporation (NHC). Founded in 1972 by Dr. Carl Adams, NHC has been an innovator in quality long-term care for more than 35 years. The commitment to excellence and compassion that Dr. Adams possessed has been passed on to his sons and grandchildren, who still run the company today. Dr. Adams’ mission in starting NHC was to be the country’s leading provider of long-term care by putting ethics and quality first. NHC has grown over the years to provide skilled nursing care, short-term rehabilitation, assisted living communities, home healthcare, hospice services and independent living communities.
The Palmettos continues in NHC’s commitment to excellence by providing quality care that exceeds the standards of other assisted living communities. NHC’s national experience and resources paired with its family ownership and operation sets The Palmettos apart. Established specifically for South Carolina, The Palmettos offers its residents an unrivaled amount of established expertise in a personalized manner that will feel like home.
At The Palmettos, our residents’ health and safety is our top priority. We provide licensed nurses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, as well as certified nursing assistants who have completed the proper training and certification necessary to care for a variety of needs. The daily care of our residents will be managed by our onsite registered nurse. For prompt and convenient quality care, residents may choose our community medical director to serve as their primary care physician and will be seen in our community wellness clinic. Our commitment to our residents is that we will take NHC’s 35 years of experience and use it to enhance the lives of those who call our community home. That is why we are “Generations Serving Generations.”
