Highlands Square in Somerset, Kentucky, is an assisted-living community that can also accommodate short-term or respite stays. Residents who need ongoing diabetes monitoring or individualized speech therapy find both services available without leaving the building. The community is licensed for assisted living, so help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders is built into each care plan.
Additional clinical resources are on site for changing health needs. A memory-care program, hospice coordination, incontinence and ambulatory support, and scheduled physician visits are available, and licensed nurses are present to manage medications and monitor conditions. Occupational and physical therapists visit regularly, and a structured wellness program promotes strength and balance. A facility-wide sprinkler system adds a level of safety that complements the hands-on staffing.
Residences are designed for practicality. Floor plans may feature a private bathroom, and housekeeping is provided, helping residents keep spaces tidy without effort. Scheduled laundry services are another built-in convenience. Not every apartment includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm the exact layout and services during a tour.
Dining follows the same functional approach. Regular meals are served in a communal setting with attention to individual dietary requirements, and snacks are available between meals for residents who prefer smaller portions or need extra calories. Staff oversee nutrition to be sure each person receives meals consistent with any physician-ordered diet.
Amenities and everyday services include scheduled transportation for medical appointments or local errands and the option to bring a pet. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
