The Pines at Columbia

There’s a special kind of magic that happens when Santa walks through our doors. The kind that lights up every face in the room, softens even the hardest of days, and reminds us why this season is special!

Wednesday was one of those days. ❤️

Our residents laughed, posed for pictures, shared wishes, and absolutely soaked in the joy. And honestly? So did we. These are the moments that make a community feel like family.

A huge, heartfelt thank you to Holly Patterson Boozer and the entire team at Pathway Hospice for making Santa’s visit possible. Your generosity, your presence, and your commitment to bringing comfort and connection into our building mean more than you know. You didn’t just bring Santa… you brought spirit, kindness, and memory-making magic.

From all of us at The Pines at Columbia —
Thank you for helping us celebrate the season in the most beautiful way! 🎄

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Christy’s Dance Academy for an absolutely magical Christmas performance! Every routine was filled with joy and the true spirit of the season. The dancers lit up the room with their hard work, dedication, and beautiful energy! It was pure Christmas cheer from start to finish.

To Christy and the entire team: thank you for sharing your gifts with us and for creating such a special holiday memory for our residents, families, and staff. We are so grateful for you and can’t wait to welcome you back again!

What an incredible day yesterday, filled with laughter, local vendors, and so much heart. Our community came together to support small businesses, find one-of-a-kind gifts, and kick off the holiday season in the most joyful way possible.

From handmade treasures to sweet treats, every table held something special, but the real gift was the connection. Smiles were shared. Stories were swapped. And the spirit of the season was fully alive in every corner of the room.

A huge THANK YOU to our amazing vendors, residents, families, team members, and community partners who made this event so unforgettable. This is what community looks like. This is what the holidays are all about. ❤️

Until next year… 🎁🎄

While you’re baking (or taste-testing) cookies today, here’s a quick holiday check-list for Mom or Dad, because sometimes the smallest signs show up in the kitchen first:

✔️ Are they steady while standing and mixing?
✔️ Did they remember the recipe… or forget a few steps?
✔️ Is the kitchen safe and tidy, or a bit overwhelming?
✔️ Are they enjoying the moment, or feeling stressed by simple tasks?
✔️ Did they remember to turn the stove/oven off?

If a few of these made you pause, you’re not alone!

We’re here to help you make sense of what you’re seeing, without pressure or judgment… just peace of mind.

While you’re untangling lights and making the house sparkle, here’s a little holiday tip:

If Mom or Dad has trouble bending, reaching, or balancing, let them skip the decorating this year.

Even simple tasks, like plugging in lights or stepping on a stool, can become surprising fall risks.

And if you noticed they were a little unsteady or hesitant this season, that small flicker might mean it’s time to check in on their overall safety at home.

We’re always here to help you sort out what’s normal holiday stress… and what might need a bit more support. Just give us a call! 803-936-0062

So.... you just visited your favorite Senior loved one for the holiday, right?

Was Mom is holding onto furniture as she navigated the room … or did Dad’s “favorite rug” look like a tripping hazard?

Most seniors don’t have a Fall Prevention Plan, but they absolutely need one.

The good news? We have one ready.

From safer surroundings to 24/7 support to frequently scheduled Physical and Occupational Therapy, we help your loved one stay steady, confident, and protected.

If something felt a little off during your visit, trust that nudge.

A quick call to us can help you sort out what’s worry… and what’s a warning sign.

📞 We’re here when you need peace of mind.

When you visit Mom or Dad this Thanksgiving, don’t just look at the table full of wonderful, home-cooked food.

Look for the little red flags too.

Is the house more cluttered? Meds untouched? Fridge a bit… questionable?

Those tiny signs can say a lot about how they’re really doing day-to-day.

The good news? You don’t have to figure it out alone.

We help families sort worry from reality, AND create a plan that actually brings peace of mind.

If something felt “off” during your visit, trust that feeling.

📞 A quick call to us could give you the answers you’re looking for.

You know that moment when you’re visiting your favorite Senior and you realize that them flying solo during the holiday hustle might not be the merriest idea???

We are SO here for you.

If you know someone who’s ready for a vibrant, active assisted living community in West Columbia this holiday season, just give me a shout. I’ll keep it quick, easy, and painless (unlike pretending fruitcake is delicious 🤣😂🤣).

We’ve got 24/7 care partners, comfort food worthy of a holiday table, and plenty of festive fun!

We invite you to visit us anytime, and if you decide to stay, we hope you’ll let us guide you home!
