Overview of Northport Highlands

Northport Highlands offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Northport, MI. With 41 beds, it is smaller in size, which can suit someone who prefers a setting where staff and residents get to know each other.

Assisted living provides help with daily tasks while a resident maintains an apartment. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time away. Having these care levels in one community can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time without requiring a move to a different community.

The community is operated by Parkside of Northport. Room options include studios, one bedroom units, and two bedroom units, with a two bedroom layout potentially suiting a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion.

A heated indoor pool supports swimming and water based exercise, while the outdoor patio and enclosed garden provide places to spend time outside. Physical therapy, aqua aerobics, daily activities, and resident council meetings are also available. A Walk Score of 51 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, giving a resident who no longer drives some opportunities to get out independently.
