Overview of Highgate at Bozeman

Facebook Instagram

Highgate at Bozeman in Bozeman, Montana, delivers independent living, assisted living, and memory care across a 97-bed setting. Independent living caters to residents wanting private housing without daily assistance, while assisted living provides personal support for routine daily tasks. Memory care delivers a secured setting designed to supervise individuals prone to wandering. Having these distinct care levels on one campus allows residents to step up their support services if health demands change over time.

Short-term rehabilitation helps individuals recover before returning home, and respite care offers temporary stays to relieve family caregivers. Administrator Chis Darnell manages community operations, and a pet-friendly policy allows residents to live with their domestic animals.

Local amenities are accessible due to a walk score of 66, which marks the area as fairly walkable for quick errands on foot. Lifestyle amenities include a salon and spa, landscaped gardens, and a courtyard. Organized programming features movement classes, current event discussions, musical performances, movie showings, games, and group outings.

Interested families looking for an adaptable community can benefit from the property’s diverse care options, active daily activities, and accessible location.
