Cedarhurst of Highland in Highland, Illinois, offers two core levels of support: Assisted Living and Memory Care. Residents who choose Assisted Living receive help with daily tasks while maintaining as much independence as possible, and those in Memory Care live in an environment designed to reduce confusion and support cognitive needs. Both programs are structured so that care plans can be adjusted as conditions change, allowing residents to stay in the same community even if their support requirements increase.
The community is secured for resident safety and provides a broad range of on-site medical and therapeutic services. Nurses oversee medication management, diabetes monitoring, and incontinence care, while physical, occupational, and speech therapists are available for ongoing rehabilitation or short-term needs. Physicians such as optometrists and podiatrists visit regularly, and hospice services can be arranged when required. Short-term respite stays are accepted, giving families a reliable option for temporary coverage without disrupting a resident’s routine.
Apartments and suites come with practical features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, individual climate control, cable or satellite TV connections, and Wi-Fi. Select residences may include a balcony, patio, deck, or proximity to the central fireplace and piano area, and the property is pet friendly. Because layouts and upgrades vary, not every accommodation contains every feature, so prospective residents should verify the details important to them.
Dining follows an all-day service model, making it easy for residents to eat on their own schedule. The kitchen prepares meals that can be ordered in low- or no-sodium and no-sugar formats, and guest meals are available so family or friends can join residents at the table. Menu planning is handled by staff familiar with senior nutrition requirements, and servers are trained to note dietary restrictions or texture modifications that may be needed.
On-site amenities include an activity center, library and computer lounge, and various clubs. Residents can tend raised garden beds, participate in yoga or chair yoga, and enjoy scheduled happy hours, karaoke sessions, live-music events, birthday celebrations, and social outings. Montessori, reminiscence, and sensory-based programs support engagement for those with cognitive challenges. Outdoor access is encouraged, and a swimming pool provides another venue for exercise and recreation.
