Lifestyle

HeatherWood is a place of vibrancy and life—promoting meaning and joy in the lives of residents, families, and our care team members. Elders inspire us, motivate us, guide, and direct us. As we work to create an empowering, caring, growing culture for elders, we are also creating our own future. After all, we are all elders-in-waiting.

A Focus on Nutrition and Friendships

At HeatherWood Assisted Living and Memory Care, dining is about more than food—it’s about nourishment, comfort, and community. Residents enjoy fresh, made-from-scratch meals each day, with menus tailored to individual nutritional needs, preferences, and special diets. Our caring team provides gentle mealtime support, ensuring everyone feels included and supported.

Meals are served with full table service in a welcoming setting that encourages conversation and connection. For added variety, our Compass Café offers a casual option for snacks and light meals throughout the day.

Our menus feature homestyle favorites, Alzheimer’s and dementia-friendly options, and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. Residents also enjoy purposeful snacks and a hydration program to support overall health and well-being.

At HeatherWood, every meal is an opportunity to gather, connect, and share—nourishing both body and community.

Services & Amenities

At HeatherWood, every detail is designed to create a warm, homelike environment that fosters comfort, connection, and peace of mind. Residents enjoy an on-site salon, scheduled transportation, complimentary wireless internet, phone services, and cable TV including programs that make it easy to stay connected with loved ones.

Our compassionate care team is available 24/7 with licensed nurse oversight, call system support, medication management, a specialized continence program, and validation therapy ensuring safety, dignity, and meaningful engagement each day. Through our Life Story program, we honor each resident’s unique experiences, hobbies, and accomplishments, creating personalized care and activities that truly matter.

Life Enrichment

At HeatherWood Assisted Living and Memory Care, we believe elderhood is a time to be celebrated—the crescendo of a lifetime. Our Life Enrichment programs are thoughtfully designed to enhance every dimension of wellness—social, creative, spiritual, purposeful, and overall well-being bringing joy, meaning, and fulfillment to each day. Through meaningful connections, creative expression, and new adventures, we empower residents to embrace their passions, discover new ones, and truly thrive in a supportive, person-centered community.

At our community, Growth and Wellness Plans go beyond traditional care plans. Instead of focusing on limitations or diagnoses, we focus on each person’s strengths, goals, and passions. Together, we create a plan that supports well-being—physically, emotionally, and socially—so residents can continue to grow, stay connected, and live with purpose in a caring community.

What Families have to say

"I can't say enough about the Heatherwood staff and facilities. My father lived there for the last 20 months of his life, and was always cared for with dignity, respect, and kindness...

The facilities are bright and cheerful, and the residents clearly enjoy interacting with and getting to know each other. The staff are well-trained and very kind, and the administration is welcoming and helpful. They listen to the residents, and welcome their feedback and ideas. In the last days of our dad's life, they all went above and beyond, working alongside Heartland Hospice staff to make sure that Dad was comfortable, and that his family felt cared for as well, including bringing us food and coffee and maintaining open communication."

What Families have to say

"The management team at Heatherwood go above and beyond to meet the needs of the residents and their families with compassion, care and efficiency...

There is a welcoming atmosphere and a strong feeling of community(family). My mother has resided there for 3 years and we couldn’t be happier with the resources available to us, the caregivers’ dedication and the everyday quality of Life she is experiencing there."

What Families have to say

"We chose Heatherwood for my parents after looking at other area assisted living facilities. Heatherwood has a homey, comfortable feel where all staff know the residents by name...

We were able to furnish Mom and Dad’s apartment with all the comforts from their own home. The homemade meals are great, many activities offered to encourage residents to mingle. After six months, our parents have settled in and seem content in their new home. Mom and Dad are safe, in good spirits and are well cared for, which is just about everything an adult child hopes for."

At Compass Senior Living, we have the privilege of hearing the wisdom, humor, and small but meaningful stories from elders who have lived nearly a century. Each story—whether a cherished memory, a life lesson, or a moment of joy—offers a unique window into a life well-lived.

Through our simple process of capturing these stories, we create an enriching experience for both the storyteller and the listener. Residents share their adventures, challenges, and insights, forming deeper connections and preserving their legacy for generations to come—complete with voices, photos, and personal reflections.

The Tiny Stories™ Project has already preserved hundreds of stories told from our residents’ perspectives.

Circle of Friends™ is built on the fundamental human needs for connection, love, belonging, and purpose. In these gatherings, residents and care team members come together with a shared intention, guided by a facilitator.

Activities may include conversation, creative expression, cognitive exercises, music, goal setting, or community engagement—anything that fosters connection and engagement. At our core, we are social beings, and meaningful conversation is one of the most powerful ways to connect. Circle of Friends™ helps residents rediscover these connections, nurture relationships, and support overall well-being, especially as friends and loved ones may no longer be nearby.

The Compass Café offers an enhanced dining experience that complements our daily menu. Meals are thoughtfully designed to meet residents’ nutritional needs while providing variety and honoring personal preferences.

Menus are refreshed every 4–6 months to feature seasonal ingredients and community favorites, and special options are included for residents with Alzheimer’s or dementia. The Compass Café blends tradition with innovation—bringing comfort, choice, and flavor to every meal.
