Solutions for Living - West Columbia, SC - wistv.com - Columbia, South Carolina |

Solutions for Living at Home is a resource for strategies and support to keep seniors and others with health or mobility challenges at home.  Solutions for Living at Home is a ministry of Still Hopes Episcopal Retirement Community located in West Columbia, South Carolina.

Non-medical services are delivered by Personal Care Aides or Certified Nursing Assistants.  These are carefully selected and trained individuals who are employees of Still Hopes, which manages their payment, taxes, scheduling and workers’ compensation.  All providers undergo thorough background screening and are closely supervised.


In many cases, remaining at home is a matter of an extra pair of hands.  Some people find that a morning visit for light housecleaning and lunch preparation is all it takes.  For others a reliable individual to handle mowing and trimming makes the difference.

Many family members caring for loved ones at home use our services so they can keep up with their own work and family duties.  Whatever the needs, services are delivered with compassion and care.

A qualified member of our team will complete an initial review to help plan for and suggest services.  The recommendations will be reviewed with the client, family members and healthcare providers as needed.  A registered nurse is also available to provide an intitial assessment required by some long-term care insurers. Solutions for Living at Home offers a menu of affordable services with a three-hour minimum.  

Service is available 24/7 or as needed and can change as needs change.  Some people require assistance on a long-term basis – others need limited service during an illness or following a hospital stay.

Offerings include but are not limited to:

• Personal Care.  Daily hygiene, medication reminders and caregiver respite.
• Personal shopping.   Shopping for food or other items, prescription pick-ups and other errands.
• Companionship.  Friendly visits and companionship.
