About Carolina Gardens Senior Living at York
Carolina Gardens at York is an assisted living and memory care community located less than 15 minutes from Rock Hill, South Carolina, and a 45-minute drive from Charlotte via scenic country roads.
Our campus is situated on four acres of farmland hosting four separate buildings, with two assisted living and two memory care neighborhoods. Our picturesque country setting has ample walking areas through beautifully appointed landscaping and gardens. Our setting also provides us with fresh farm-to-table cuisine, supporting local farms and businesses.
Life Enrichment Programming
Tell us what you love to do! Our Life Enrichment program schedules many activities and local outings that give our residents a purpose every day. Examples of our activities include religious gatherings and discussions, walking club, cooking club, live music, book readings, educational speakers, and safety events with the local police department.
One of our residents’ favorite things to do is make blankets and pillows for the Levine Children’s Hospital. We also enjoy local attractions such as Lake Lure, local church visits, and trips to the state parks and the movie theater.
Programming at Carolina Gardens keep us vibrant and in touch with our surrounding community. You’ll find our spirited program encourages residents to lead a fulfilling and active life.

The dining experience at Carolina Gardens at York is outstanding. Join your neighbors for three home- cooked meals a day. Our farm-to-table menu is served restaurant-style by our warm and friendly staff. There is a daily menu that changes every day, plus an alternative menu that changed each week.

Memory Care Neighborhood
Memory care refers to the specific care for a person with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or another memory impairment. Specialized care may range from cueing to requiring a secured setting to prevent elopement.
Starting with the same care and services as assisted living, our memory care program builds on the person’s current abilities. We incorporate daily structure, fitness, and physical and occupational therapy to help residents complete a daily routine and maintain functional abilities as long as possible.
Our primary goal is safety for all residents. Consistent staffing helps residents feel comfortable and confident during their care. Through our dementia-specific trained employees, we are able to deliver quality care to our memory care neighborhoods.
At Carolina Gardens at York, we use activities to help reduce residents’ agitation, improve their moods, and encourage social interaction. Popular activities include morning coffee and news, listening to music, spiritual programs, ice cream socials, reminiscing, trivia, and puzzles. One-on-one sensory activities may also be used to help residents relax and have a good night’s rest.
Learn more about the benefits of memory care.
Short-Term Respite Care
Residents in short-term respite care receive all of the amenities and care in our assisted living or memory care options, but for a shorter, predetermined length of stay. Respite care is for loved ones who may need a little help after a hospital or rehab stay, or when caregivers plan a family vacation or just need some time to relax and recharge. We are here for you. Call and ask us about our respite care package.
