The Pines at Bluffton
The Pines at Bluffton sits on a private 10-acre site at 800 Fording Island Road, the main road (US 278) between Bluffton and the bridges to Hilton Head Island. It offers assisted living, memory care and short respite stays, for a family caregiver who needs a break or a parent recovering after a hospital stay.
Memory care at The Pines
Memory care has its own suites, which families can furnish with familiar pieces from home. A licensed nurse works full time, and care partners are on duty around the clock. The approach focuses on what each resident can still do, not on what has been lost.
Before you tour
Tour at a mealtime and watch how staff talk with residents.
Ask what the monthly fee covers, what costs extra, and how the fee changes if care needs grow.
Ask how many caregivers are on duty at night and on weekends.
If memory care may be needed later, tour that wing too and ask how a move between wings works.
The front office is open every day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Prices and openings change, so call (843) 815-2555 before you visit. The Pines at Hilton Head, on the island, is a separate community: see The Pines at Hilton Head.

What reviewers say
Families and residents describe a small community with a home-like feel, friendly staff and an executive director who knows everyone. A resident writes that the food is good and there is always something to do, and others mention renovations that freshened the building and a memory care wing for residents living with dementia. Nothing about resident care shows up as a repeated complaint. Tour both the assisted living side and the memory care wing, and ask who leads each.
