Highland Assisted Living operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs. The staff can monitor residents who wander during either daytime or nighttime hours, deliver wound care, administer oxygen, and follow physician-ordered special diets. Diabetes management is available for residents who use oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin, and the home will accept individuals younger than 60 when clinically appropriate. Advanced dementia conditions are supported, and on-site teams can provide both non-ambulatory and incontinence care without relying on outside agencies.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, with a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All employees undergo background checks, an awake night shift is maintained, and the building features door alarms, a fenced rear area, and an emergency call system that alerts staff immediately. Hands-on help is offered for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting at the full-assistance level. Transfer options include standby supervision, one- or two-person assists, wheelchair or walker support, full transfers with a Hoyer lift, and care for bed-bound residents, allowing most mobility levels to be accommodated while keeping safety protocols in place.
Rooms are available furnished, and many can be repainted or decorated to reflect a resident’s preferences, though not every accommodation offers all customization options. Cable service is offered in select rooms, and common areas provide additional gathering spaces so residents can choose between privacy and social interaction as needed.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates routinely, but residents may also place on-order requests within kitchen guidelines. Snacks are accessible between meals, and the culinary team works with clinical staff to manage therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanically altered plans. This arrangement helps maintain consistent nutrition without limiting personal choice.
Resident parking, outside smoking areas, and wheelchair-accessible entrances are available. Internet access and on-site religious services support day-to-day convenience, and transportation can be arranged for medical appointments or personal errands. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The home accepts ALTCS and maintains staffing to assist with all listed amenities.
