Highland House of Fayetteville sits at 1700 Pamalee Drive with room for 106 people in skilled nursing beds, and it's one of those places where there's always something quietly going on, because staff are present around the clock, every day of the week, and folks get the help they need in both private and semi-private rooms, which are bright and have large windows, and there's a lot of sun in the lounges and outdoor seating areas that are well-kept. People can join life enrichment programs, social activities, or educational and religious events that keep the mind and spirit busy, and those who need help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or medication reminders can get it through assisted living services. Highland House offers skilled nursing care with registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants, and they do things like IV therapy, wound care with a wound care physician, fall prevention, tracheotomy care, enteral feeding, and help with incontinence, and there's also support with things like cardiopulmonary therapy, dental and vision care, X-rays, podiatry, and geriatric psychiatry.
For people who need more than nursing care, there's memory care, independent living options, and adult care home services, and you'll find therapy of all sorts in their dedicated rehabilitation unit and therapy gym-occupational therapy for eating and self-care, speech therapy for better talking and swallowing, and physical therapy for moving, balance, and using prosthetics, plus an Activities of Daily Living Suite for people to practice skills. Folks coming out of the hospital can stay for short-term rehab or respite care, with therapy, nursing support, meals, and social programs, and there's long-term care for those who need to stay longer, all planned by a clinical team with a person-centered care approach, including help to avoid repeat hospital visits.
Everyone can share meals in communal dining rooms, or have in-room dining if that suits them better, while all the housekeeping, laundry, cable TV, and Wi-Fi needs get taken care of. People can use the salon for a haircut or get outside on the patio or peaceful outdoor seating areas, and the staff offer transportation for appointments, psychosocial support, and hospice or palliative care if someone comes to the end of life. The facility is led by an administrator named Tonya Drake, and everything-from bed linens to medical care to outings and activities-runs according to need, day or night, for the adults who call Highland House home.
