Harbison Shores

How big is Harbison Shores, and is its license current?

Harbison Shores appears on DPH's active list of community residential care facilities, license CRC-2412, sized at 82 beds against a Columbia-area midpoint of 39.

The term shown ends October 31, 2027, after which the operator must renew. Because the fee is charged per licensed bed, operators have no reason to overstate the number; it is the cap on how many residents may live here.

Sorted by license number, CRC-2412 falls at position 62 of 64 senior CRCFs in our six counties. Lower numbers generally mean an older license line, though not necessarily an older building.

Does Harbison Shores offer secured memory care?

Yes. DPH's record for Harbison Shores carries the Alzheimer's special care unit flag, meaning a secured program for residents with probable Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia that restricts their movement outside a designated area, as Regulation 60-84 Section 101.F describes it.

DPH's data records that a secured unit exists but not how many beds it holds. Ask how many residents the unit is designed for, how many live there now, and how long the wait is for a bed.

South Carolina's rules for these units are summarized on our memory care rules page.

Has DPH issued an enforcement order against Harbison Shores?

Not in the period we checked: Harbison Shores is absent from every DPH Healthcare Quality enforcement report from January 2025 to September 2026.

Keep that in proportion. Penalty orders are the exception; most problems DPH finds on a visit are closed out with a plan of correction that never appears in the monthly report.

Are inspection results for Harbison Shores public?

Ask Harbison Shores for its copy, or request one from DPH in writing; Section 202.E of Regulation 60-84 makes the reports public even though the state posts no CRCF inspection data online.

DPH has no fixed inspection schedule for CRCFs, so ask when the last visit happened, what was cited, and to see the plan of correction the administrator signed.

Which questions matter most at Harbison Shores?

Let DPH's data shape the visit: ask the date of the last DPH visit and whether you can read the report and the facility's response.

• Ask for a sample week of staff schedules: the legal floor for 82 residents is 11 staff at peak and 3 at night.
• Ask for the written dementia-care disclosure and the number of beds behind the secured doors.
• Ask whether Harbison Shores accepts Optional State Supplementation (OSS) or Community Choices Residential Personal Care if savings run out.
• Ask which charges rise as care needs rise, and check that the agreement promises 30 days' notice of any increase.
• The licensee's home state is NC; ask who runs the building locally and who answers above the administrator.
