Apartment Living
Clemson Downs has been just what the doctor ordered - literally & figuratively for "My wonderful Mom". Although leaving her home of 50 years in Clemson was difficult, she has found a safe, welcoming home in the Clemson Downs apartments. Every service she needs to continue living independently is right here ... a beautiful, well appointed two bedroom, two bath apartment, a dining room with healthy, delicious meals, a call button for any emergency, prompt maintenance, plenty of neighbors & activities and a responsive professional staff who know her by name.
My sister and I live many states away and visit as often as possible. We couldn't be more confident in mother's living arrangement ... and she is happy, safe and surrounded by friends & excellent care. She has adapted admirably to the difficult changes that surround this season of her life and everyone at Clemson Downs has helped make a transition both possible and pleasant. I look forward to every visit back to Clemson and to our new home!

Skilled Health Care
David and I chose to move to Clemson Downs in 1992 because of the feeling of tranquility. I am a homeowner in the Downs and David has been in the skilled nursing center for the past six years. After six years, I am still happy with the care he receives. The staff is exceptional; they really care about the residents. David really loves the staff because of the wonderful care and attention he receives. Other options are available but he is happy here, I wouldn't consider moving him anywhere else.

Assisted Living
A few years after retiring in Michigan, my husband and I moved to South Carolina. We had visited other states in the south seeking more climate friendly areas. South Carolina, with its seasons was perfect. We built a home in Oconee County offering golf and other amenities. We lived there several years until we were ready to retire again, this time from the physical demands of property ownership. Again we found the perfect place for us at Clemson Downs. The campus is beautiful! We could continue our lifestyle - with church, friends, doctors and other health care services in the community - as well as on campus. We lived in a large apartment until my husband's death. By then I was 90 and had no relatives in the area; although I was in good health, my family and I opted for an apartment, which had become available in Assisted Living. A whole new life was opened up for me. My spacious living room, bedroom, kitchenette and bath were lovely, and completely adequate for me. In addition I no longer had to cook, do my laundry or clean my apartment. A caring and professional staff are on the floor to manage my medication and be present to respond to a push of a button. Since I am healthy, I participate in a variety of activities on campus. I travel on our activity bus to concerts at the two local universities, and go shopping and sight seeing. Life is Good!
