Forest Hills Heights delivers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, with programming that accommodates residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, stay up through the night, or live with advanced dementia. Medical oversight covers wound care, oxygen management, specialized diets, and diabetes protocols ranging from oral medication to injections and sliding-scale insulin. Younger adults under 60 are accepted when their care needs match the services provided. The community’s capacity to handle these varied medical profiles allows residents to remain on campus even as conditions change.
To support that clinical scope, the property staffs registered and licensed nurses around the clock, keeps an additional nurse on call, and completes background checks on all employees. Night-shift staff stay awake, and safety measures such as fenced outdoor areas, door alarms, WanderGuard systems, pull cords, and PERS devices help manage risk. Podiatry visits are performed on site, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained for walker and wheelchair support as well as standby, one-person, or two-person transfers.
Apartments are offered with or without private bathrooms, and some come furnished while others allow residents to bring their own furniture. Independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate are available in select units. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included for all residents, though exact frequency can differ by care plan.
Meals follow a rotating set menu with an on-order option at each seating, and snacks are available throughout the day. The kitchen can handle diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, purée, and thickened-liquid preparations to meet physician orders or resident preference.
Residents have access to parking, and the campus is wheelchair accessible. Outdoor smoking areas, communal gardens, on-site religious services, a barber and beauty shop, internet access, and scheduled transportation expand daily options, while proximity to public transit offers another way to get around. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
