License numbers are issued in sequence. Ordered from lowest to highest, CRC-1432 is number 22 of the 56 senior CRCF licenses in the tri-county area; that hints at how long this license line has existed, not how old the building is.
Is there memory care at Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant?
No secured unit is recorded: DPH's data lists no Alzheimer's special care unit at Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant, so someone who begins exit-seeking would normally need a building with one.
Forgetfulness by itself does not bar a resident from an open building; what matters is whether the person is a danger to self or others and whether staff can meet their needs. The closest senior CRCFs flagged for a special care unit are Savannah Hall Assisted Living (0.1 mi), Shem Creek at South Bay (1.2 mi), Mount Pleasant Gardens (1.6 mi).
Has DPH sanctioned Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant?
Not in the period we checked: Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant is absent from every DPH Healthcare Quality enforcement report published for January 2025 to September 2026.
Staying off the enforcement list means no recent penalty or sanction; it does not mean DPH found nothing to correct. Only the inspection report shows that.
Are Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant's DPH inspection results public?
Put a written request to DPH Healthcare Quality. South Carolina keeps CRCF inspection reports offline, but Section 202.E of Regulation 60-84 opens inspection and investigation reports, and the facility's response, to the public on written request, with personal names removed.
DPH has no fixed inspection cycle for CRCFs; it visits “as deemed appropriate” and without notice. On a tour, ask for the date of the last visit, the deficiencies cited and the signed plan of correction.
Where would Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant residents go in a hurricane evacuation?
Ask to see it: every South Carolina CRCF must keep a written emergency and disaster evacuation plan, made with its county emergency management agency, that names where residents will be sheltered, how they will be moved and who will care for them, and residents or their responsible party may inspect it (Regulation 60-84, Section 1401).
Because the building is in Charleston County, Regulation 60-84 (Section 1401.B.1.c) requires its hurricane plan to name at least one sheltering facility outside the six coastal counties of Beaufort, Charleston, Colleton, Horry, Jasper and Georgetown. Ask when the sheltering agreement was last renewed (at least every three years is required) and when staff last rehearsed the plan. See how hurricane rules apply to Lowcountry facilities.

What belongs on a tour checklist for Cooper Hall at the Palms of Mt Pleasant?
Begin with what the record suggests: ask when DPH was last in the building and whether you can see that report and the facility's answer.
- Ask for a sample week of the staffing schedule and compare it with the floor for 44 beds: 6 at peak, 2 off-peak.
- Ask what happens to a resident whose private funds are spent, and whether OSS residents are accepted.
- Take the admission agreement home first; the regulation requires it to list every charge and give 30 days' notice of increases.
- The licensee is registered in MA; ask who runs the building locally and who sits above the administrator.
