At The Gardens, relationships are the foundation of our community. We delight in fostering meaningful relationships — we call them deep connections — with residents and family members, and finding ways to create connections between the seniors who live here. As we learn more about our residents, we can provide even better assistance and programs to meet their ever-evolving needs.
The Gardens at Eastside is operated by The Arbor Company. For more than three decades, The Arbor Company has been dedicated to providing the lifestyle and amenities that keep seniors feeling their very best.
Art and Education
Stimulate your mind by learning another language, painting a portrait, or exploring a new craft or skill.
Deep Connections
Feel connected to a lively community. We ask the right questions and take the time to listen. It’s why residents accomplish amazing things here — things they never thought possible on their own.
Health and Wellness
Our exercise programs are designed especially for seniors to improve mobility, maintain fitness, and even challenge the brain — all in a fun format.
Purposeful Living
At The Gardens, residents are meaningfully engaged throughout the day. An important part of that includes opportunities to volunteer and give back to others while remaining actively involved in the community.
Recreation and Leisure
We go out of our way to fulfill each resident’s wish list. From live music to barbecues to karaoke nights, if you can dream it, chances are that we’ll try it. And we love helping with family get-togethers.
Spiritual Journey
For many, the health of one’s soul is as meaningful as the health of one’s body. And so we offer ample opportunities for structured religious activities and individual reflection.
The Arbor Company has been serving seniors around the country for more than 30 years. Our experience and passion for senior living set us apart from others; we are dedicated to fostering relationships that matter and providing resources that keep our team on the cutting edge of the industry’s best practices.
Each member of our team brings a heart for service, a passion for seniors, and the experience to create exceptional opportunities for our residents.
Executive Director
I am originally from Charleston, SC, but our family have called the Upstate home since 1983. After a career in the hospitality industry, in 1997 my heart found a new passion in working with our senior population. I joined The Gardens team in January 2005 and I truly love working with this amazing team. I strive to make a difference in the lives of our residents and staff, but they are the ones who make a difference in mine.
Assistant Executive Director
I am married with two daughters and I first started working in long term care in early 1999. I joined The Gardens in 2003 and have worked in several different departments since my start. I am currently in charge of internal marketing and overseeing the Dietary and Maintenance department. Ever since I walked through our front doors, I have known that The Gardens is the perfect fit for me. I could not imagine another job that could possibly be more rewarding.

We kicked off National Assisted Living Week with a Jungle Safari!
In the morning, we had a Jungle-themed chair fitness followed by videos of the beautiful animals in the Jungle.
In the afternoon, we had Wildlife Geeks showcase a variety of wildlife animals. We had a bearded dragon, turtle, frogs, chameleon, prairie dog, Guinea pig, snake, and a lionhead rabbit.
Lastly, we had a cooking demonstration of Malva Pudding (a South African dessert) by Adam, our Assistant Executive Director. It was delicious!!
