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”.
