Memory Care at Highland Court
As you know, memory care goes beyond dining services and medication management. Everyday interactions are what make a difference in the lives of those with memory loss. Our comfortable community offers individuals an opportunity to connect with peers and health care professionals with ease.
Our facility is geared towards memory care enhancement. Our purposeful design offers ample natural lighting, open community spaces and a circular set up. Our care staff update charts and communicate via mobile devices. Thus, hallways have very little sound pollution and the building has a calm feeling about it. The intentionality of this space is something you can see, feel, and hear.
Services in the monthly base rent for memory care include:
- Medication management
- 3 meals each day and snacks throughout the day
- Modified diet needs
- Weekly housekeeping services
- Personal laundry services
- All utilities (except telephone and cable)
- Planned activities, exercise programs and an abundance of social opportunities

*If the services included in the monthly base rent are not enough to maintain independent living, additional personal support services can be added. We can assist in designing a care program to fit individual needs for living as independently as possible. The ‘personal support services fee’ is based on the actual services provided. We determine services after a personal assessment conducted by our professional team.
