Highgate Senior Living is an attractive 'Manor House' with a campus that is nestled in quiet neighborhood surroundings.

At Highgate we provide independent retirement living, assisted living, and separate/secure memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia.

When you walk into a Highgate community, you have the feeling of entering into a country inn but with personal services that take care of your every need.

The 'Manor' at all of our Highgate communities is a smaller apartment community.  Because of the cozy size it's easier to move about the building for meals and activities and to meet and interact with other residents.

Although each of our Highgate locations are a bit different in the sizes of apartments offered, residents have a choice of a spacious studio, alcove, one bedroom, or two bedroom apartment - complete with kitchenette, refrigerator, microwave and a private bath with a large walk-in shower. You are free to furnish and decorate your new apartment as you wish and small pets are welcome - so your new surroundings will immediately feel like home.

For those who want complete independent living, but access to the services and amenities of The Manor, some of our locations also have the choice of our beautiful two bedroom Duplex Villa Retirement Homes that are located conveniently but separately on the Highgate campus.

Highgate provides a continuum of care that can accommodate changing needs of a resident:

• Independent living in a separate Villa Duplex gives peace of mind that help is only seconds away in an emergency
• Assisted Living for those needing help with activities of daily living and limited nursing services
• Enhanced Care for the declining senior needing full assistance and support
• Our secure Memory Care Cottage provides loving individualized care in a safe, homelike environment for seniors afflicted with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia.

Something for everyone
If you love gardening but find it hard on your back, our waist-high planters in our gardener's courtyard may be just the answer. There's a full kitchen in the Activity Room. It's perfect for entertaining family and friends with plenty of comfortable seating for family potlucks and birthday celebrations. And it's the perfect place for baking cookies with those special grandchildren. Our full-time Activities Director caters to all interests and encourages involvement. From impromptu sing-a-longs at our Grand Piano to a trip down memory lane with an old or new-found friend, there's always something interesting to do at Highgate

Convenient Design
The Manor at Highgate is a smaller apartment community. Our smaller size is warm and welcoming with beautiful landscaped gardens and courtyards. Due to the cozy size of our community, it is easier for our residents to independently find their way around the building for meals and activities…and to meet and interact with other residents. Our residents are encouraged to spend much of their time in the common areas of our community as most research indicates that socialization is the most important key in slowing down decline due to aging.

At Highgate, we provide an array of areas in our building to interest and delight residents and families alike…

• A luxurious Spa where a resident can be pampered with a massage or spa bath and indulge in therapeutic aromatherapy
• Cozy and private fireplace nooks where a resident can curl up
• Game rooms to keep minds challenged
• Arts and crafts areas
• Television room
• A beautifully appointed grand dining room.

Of course, our residents can always be pampered in the lovely Highgate Beauty/Barber Shop.

Specialized Retirement and Assisted Living Environment
Highgate offers a unique Program…called Life Enhancement that is specifically designed to create a day...every day...for the older adult. It is due to our unique programming that an aging adult needing assistance will generally thrive in our elegant, non-institutional, and less restricted environment. At Highgate the every day life of a resident is enhanced and structured with:

Meals and Hydration
At Highgate, our residents are treated like royalty in our finely appointed dining room. They are presented with choices at all three meals from which they are welcome to select their favorite “home-style” cuisine. At Highgate, we know that mealtime is an important part of the day…both socially and nutritionally.

Additionally, we understand that dehydration is the underlying cause of 90% of hospitalizations for older adults…so we provide plenty of opportunity for our residents to keep hydrated by providing a beverage bar as well as always offering a favorite beverage during or after each hourly activity.

The Highgate Team
At Highgate, we believe our most important ingredient is our staff. From our nursing department, housekeeping, maintenance, activities, and our dietary department we pride ourselves in hiring exceptionally caring people who have chosen to provide loving care to our residents. Highgate is unique in the fact that we employ professional individuals and then we highly train them in the "stages of decline" due to aging. Therefore residents, families, and staff have the best resources available when problems arise.

We spend our lives searching for comfort, security, and a feeling of belonging. For an aging adult, these basic human needs are no less important. Actually, At Highgate Senior Living, we believe they are more so. Each resident’s individual capabilities are encouraged, their inabilities understood, no matter what the level of care required. They are encouraged to enjoy each and every day to the fullest extent of their abilities - with independence, privacy, friendship, dignity and love. At Highgate, our goal is to be known in the community we serve as: Experts in Aging.
