EASLEY — The Foothills Retirement Community hosted a hard-hat tour of its new independent-living apartments on Thursday, Aug. 27.

There will be a 12-apartment addition complete sometime in mid-November. The Foothills Community is located in Easley.

The community is a continuing-care retirement community offering independent living accommodations, assisted living, skilled nursing and short-term rehab.

The community also has a 20-room Memory Support Center that is being constructed.  The Memory Support Center is for people who suffer from Alzheimer’s or dementia and need  a little extra attention and to be in a secured environment.

The center will be completed in early 2016.
