Highland Crest Senior Living in Kirksville, MO is an assisted-living community that supports residents who need help with daily activities while still valuing their independence. The team is trained to provide diabetes care and can accommodate respite or short-term stays, giving families flexibility when temporary support is required.
Additional clinical services are delivered on site, including memory care oversight, incontinence management, ambulatory assistance, hospice coordination, and medication management. The building is a secured community, so entry and exit are monitored to help protect residents who may be at risk of wandering.
Private and semi-private apartments are available, and while every residence is air-conditioned, not all units include every feature such as parking access, piano or organ space, pet-friendly policies, or dedicated outdoor areas. Apartments are designed for mobility with handicap accessibility, and staff can advise which floor plans best match individual requirements.
Dining services provide three daily meals with options for low-sodium or no-sugar menus, and guest meals can be arranged with advance notice. The culinary staff prepares balanced dishes in a communal dining room, and snacks are available between meal times to support residents who need smaller, more frequent servings.
Residents can spend time in the activity center, browse materials or use computers in the library lounge, and enjoy outdoor walking paths that support light exercise. Clubs, reminiscence programs, live-music events, birthday celebrations, and scheduled social outings give residents opportunities to stay engaged with neighbors and the wider community.
