Heritage Hills Senior Living sits in Hendersonville, North Carolina, where rows of one-story, single-family homes line the property like a quiet village and tall, dense trees surround everything with forest views that stay green all year, and the air feels a little fresher because every home's smoke-free. The independent living units have full kitchens, living rooms, private bathrooms, laundry rooms, and attached single-car garages, plus patios or outdoor spots where one can sit and watch the birds or just enjoy the quiet, with floor plans that are easy to get around and everything on one level, which makes moving through the house less of a worry for anybody using a walker or wheelchair. Most people here live in private one-bedroom or two-bedroom homes, but the community also has a Memory Care building where residents with Alzheimer's, dementia, or other related needs get person-centered care and careful monitoring for safety, with studio apartments (some private, some shared) that have their own bathrooms and always someone nearby to help, thanks to the Amara Memory Support program, which tries to keep routines steady and activities meaningful every day.
Staff at Heritage Hills are around 24 hours a day to help with daily activities, meal preparation, medication reminders, and personal care, always doing their best to treat every resident with respect and a friendly word, and a nurse is often on call for more specialized health needs. There's on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy as well as hospice support, and therapists or doctors can come by for scheduled visits, including a podiatrist and dentist. Apartments and homes use emergency alert systems, and the whole community runs under a 24-hour security system, which helps families feel calmer about safety. The homes and common spaces have wide doorways, wheelchair-accessible showers, and other supports for disabilities, so the place stays comfortable no matter someone's mobility level.
Meals here come from a restaurant-style dining room that's open all day, though independent living residents can cook at home if they want, and everyone gets seven prepared meals a week as part of their services. Bi-weekly housekeeping, weekly laundry and linen services, and regular trash collection take the burden off the chores, with all utilities, cable TV, and transportation services included in the living arrangements, so it's easier to budget without surprises. The thermostats are controlled independently in each home, and residents can bring their cats or dogs, with plenty of outdoor space for pets, and the beautician or barber visits right on site, so nobody has to travel far to feel put together.
The Craft House and woodworking shop give space for hands-on work, while a library and computer lab let residents read, play games, or keep in touch with grandkids. Many organized activities pop up on the calendar, including fitness classes, social hours, devotional gatherings, and special events in both the indoor and outdoor common areas, and the staff tries to keep everyone engaged at their own pace, whether that means gardening, painting, or just joining in a coffee chat. Residents can join health and wellness programs built for older adults, and there's support for those looking to stay active as well as those who need a gentler routine.
Heritage Hills Senior Living provides several living solutions, with Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Skilled Nursing, Respite Care, and even a Continuing Care Retirement Community option, which lets people adjust care levels as their needs change, and that kind of flexibility helps most residents stay in familiar surroundings. The surroundings feel suburban and peaceful, with enough neighbors close by for community but enough space for privacy, and there are always opportunities to take part in group events or have quiet time alone. All in all, Heritage Hills offers the kind of steady routine, friendly staff, plenty of helpful services, and nature views that can make older adults feel comfortable and safe while getting the day-to-day help they might need.
