Services & Amenities

Assisted Living

Our assisted living communities provide our residents with assistance with activities of daily living (ADL’s). Activities of daily living include but are not limited to, assistance with bathing, dressing, housekeeping, medication assistance, meals and laundry services. Our compassionate staff members are trained to serve and ensure your loved ones receive the care they deserve in this important stage in their lives. 

Individual care plans allow our communities to customize a plan to meet each of the specific needs of our residents. Some residents require little or no assistance with certain ADL’s but may require full assistance with others. In addition, these needs most likely will change over time as folks grow older. Assisted living is the perfect balance – the independence you want and the care you need. 

Peace of mind comes knowing that your loved one is in good hands with Hickory’s considerate and caring staff to assist them with all of their personal needs around the clock.
