Highlands Living Center

Highlands Living Center, located at 500 Hahnemann Trail in Pittsford, New York, is a nonprofit skilled nursing facility dedicated to delivering expert clinical care, rehabilitation, and compassionate long-term support to seniors in Monroe County and the greater Rochester region. As a nonprofit corporation, Highlands prioritizes mission over margin—every resource is directed toward the residents it serves, ensuring that clinical quality, staffing, and the overall care environment reflect genuine commitment rather than financial incentive. Skilled nursing services at Highlands Living Center encompass 24-hour nursing oversight, post-acute rehabilitation including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, wound care management, IV therapy, diabetic care, and support for residents with complex or chronic medical conditions. Following surgery, a stroke, or a significant illness, Highlands' rehabilitation team works alongside attending physicians and specialists to deliver goal-oriented recovery programs that help residents return home or transition safely to a less intensive level of care. Pittsford's location within Monroe County places Highlands residents in one of New York State's most medically resourced regions. Strong Memorial Hospital—the University of Rochester's flagship academic medical center and a nationally ranked Level I trauma center—is a key partner for post-acute transitions. Rochester General Hospital and Unity Hospital are also nearby, ensuring specialist access is never far away. Beyond healthcare, Pittsford offers a tranquil and enriching environment for residents and visiting families. The Erie Canalway Trail, Corbett's Glen Nature Park, and Powder Mills Park all provide beautiful natural spaces for outdoor visits and gentle recreation. The charming shops and restaurants along Schoen Place in Pittsford Village, together with Wegmans and Pittsford Plaza, make family visits convenient and enjoyable. Highlands Living Center's nonprofit governance assures families that their loved one's wellbeing is the singular focus of every care decision made within these walls.
