Home of the Good Shepherd at Highpointe offers Assisted Living and Memory Care, with programming designed to support residents who wander, stay up all night, require wound care, use oxygen, follow special diets, or live with diabetes managed by oral medication, injections, or a sliding scale. The community accepts adults under 60, and its Memory Care program is equipped for advanced dementia. On-site podiatry is provided, and licensed nurses monitor complex medical needs, coordinate medication, and oversee personalized care plans.

Daily care is backed by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24/7. All employees receive background checks, and an awake night shift ensures rapid response to pull-cord alerts, door alarms, and fenced-rear security measures. Bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting can be performed with full assistance, and transfer help ranges from standby with a walker to two-person or Hoyer lift moves for bed-bound residents. An activity director organizes structured engagement throughout the day, while 24-hour staffing maintains supervision and safety.

Most apartments feature a private bathroom, furnished living space, independent temperature controls, cable hookup, and the option to paint or decorate. Layouts vary, and not every unit includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific room details during a tour.

Meals are served three times daily with both set menus and on-order selections, and snacks are available at any time. The culinary team coordinates closely with clinical staff to manage therapeutic diets, diabetic requirements, texture modifications, and other physician-ordered restrictions.

Amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, and a pet-friendly policy. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The building is wheelchair accessible and houses a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, and reliable internet access. On-site religious services are scheduled regularly, and transportation is provided for appointments and outings.
