Highlands Lake Center stands as a nursing home and rehabilitation center, where staff offer skilled nursing and memory care around the clock, so there's always someone there when help's needed, and they put together personal care plans to guide everything from daily living assistance to specialized needs like wound care and pain management, and you'll find folks getting therapy for walking, speaking, or everyday tasks, along with short-term respite care to give caregivers a break. They run thoughtful memory care programs for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and there's palliative care and long-term support for people who need it most.
Residents have choices between private and semi-private rooms, each with cable TV, telephone, and internet, plus electric beds and shared fine dining or nutritional care programs, and it's all wrapped up in a friendly, home-like interior designed to bring cheer and make everyone feel comfortable-think bright and open spaces with cozy spots for relaxing or socializing, and plenty of landscaped outdoor areas to stroll or sit. You'll notice there are regular social and recreational activities, supported by a recreational director, and even a barbershop for easy grooming. Family counseling is available, too, along with special programs like WELLNESSREDEFINED™ which centers on people, compassion, and continual care, aiming for better results after surgery or illness.
There's parking out front, everything is wheelchair accessible, buildings come with air conditioning, and housekeeping and laundry are taken care of so residents can spend more time on group programs or quiet moments. The center is Joint Commission accredited, so the standards for safety and quality care are checked, and families often appreciate the steady focus on comfort, support, and a sense of community. Staff work to make each day pleasant-helping with daily needs while encouraging independence-and the place stays lively with chances to engage, eat well, and be part of a supportive group.
