Residents stay in either private or semi-private rooms with monthly rates set, and the building's got features like cable TV, washers and dryers, and a sprinkler system for safety, plus it's all handicap accessible from the front door to the activity rooms, fitness center, and dining room. Meals come served in a restaurant-style way, and there's always a calendar with things like arts and crafts, education programs, and health and wellness activities to help residents make friends and stay active-and the place stays friendly with a fully trained staff who are there when needed for both little and big tasks, whether it's personal care, medication support, or just chatting during a game in the activities room. Seniors who want extra comforts have access to amenities like WiFi, a library, outdoor patio, guest parking, kitchenettes, a salon and barbershop, housekeeping, and maintenance, and there are features in place to support safety and independence, too. For those with special medical needs, Highland offers extra services like podiatry, wound care, cardiology, and neurology services along with basic skilled nursing and personal care, and if folks need help getting to appointments or outings, there's transportation arranged by the center. Socialization stays important, and they've got a full schedule that makes it easier for folks to meet new people and form friendships. Highland Rehabilitation & Health Care Center, sponsored by Medline, Guardian Pharmacy, and McKesson, holds tours for anyone thinking about moving in, and with their various levels of care and the aim to create a safe, comfortable place that feels like home, they've got options for those looking for both short-term recovery and longer-term, worry-free living.

Compassionate staff, facility needs improvement
I had a mixed experience. The staff were outstanding-compassionate, professional, and often went above and beyond with skilled nursing, hospice support, and excellent billing-making visits positive. However, the building feels older and understaffed, intake and shift handoffs were poorly coordinated (room not ready, locked/slow access) and I saw occasional lapses in care/hygiene. I recommend this place for the people and value, but go in prepared to advocate and monitor logistics.
