The Highlands Senior Living Communities

The Highlands Senior Living Communities Active adults 55+ can enjoy independent living in a home of their own within Vennehjem, our welcoming senior lifestyle community.

At The Highlands, we provide a thoughtful continuum of care and multiple levels of support designed to meet seniors where they are — and help them as their needs change over time. When extra support is needed, personalized assistance is available, along with smooth transitions into assisted living or nursing care — all within a familiar, trusted environment. We offer respite services for family caregivers and convenient access to short-term rehab and therapy, so residents can recover and return to their routines as quickly as possible. At The Highlands, you’re never navigating change alone. Our full range of services, caring team, and close-knit community ensure support, comfort, and connection every step of the journey.
