Where we work in Lake Highlands
Lake Highlands is the northeast corner of Dallas: north of Northwest Highway and White Rock Lake, south of the LBJ Freeway, east of Central Expressway to the Richardson and Garland lines. Walnut Hill, Audelia, Skillman, Abrams and Ferndale are the streets our caregivers drive, and Lake Highlands Town Center, Flag Pole Hill and the White Rock Creek trail are the landmarks.
The ZIP codes are 75238 and 75243. Lake Highlands has a strong sense of itself, partly because it has its own high school and partly because so many families stayed for forty years; that is exactly the population we serve most.
Lake Highlands homes, and what care looks like inside them
Most of Lake Highlands was built in the 1950s and 1960s: single-story ranch homes with a carport or a small garage, three bedrooms down one hallway, a step down to the den, and a bathroom that was never designed for a walker. A lot of them still belong to the couple who bought them, and now one of the two needs help.
In a single-story ranch the plan is usually mornings, meals, a supervised shower, medication reminders and company through the afternoon. After a fall it is the step down to the den and the bathroom doorway until the physical therapist signs off. When one spouse is caring for the other, our caregiver is often there as much for the caregiver-spouse as the client: a few hours to sleep, to go to their own appointments, to be a husband or wife again instead of a nurse.
The newer townhomes and apartments toward the Town Center and along Skillman bring stairs and parking into the plan; we sort those out at the assessment.
Not sure what your parent needs yet?
That is what the free assessment is for. Ryan comes to the house in Lake Highlands, listens, and writes the first plan with you. No obligation, no sales script, usually the same day or the next morning.
Hospitals Lake Highlands families discharge from
Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas on Walnut Hill Lane is the closest major hospital, a straight drive west, and Medical City Dallas on Forest Lane is nearly as close. Baylor Scott & White in Garland and Richardson's hospitals also come up for families on the east side. Most of our Lake Highlands discharges are from Presbyterian and Medical City.
Call us from the hospital. We do the free assessment at the bedside, sit in on discharge planning, and have a caregiver at the house off Audelia or Walnut Hill when your parent arrives home.
Discharge coming this week?
Call from the hospital room. We can do the assessment at the bedside, listen to the therapy team, and have a caregiver at the house in Lake Highlands the first night home. We answer 24/7.
Out and about in Lake Highlands
The errands stay inside the neighborhood: the grocery store and the pharmacy at Lake Highlands Town Center or along Skillman, the doctor at Presbyterian or Medical City, the library, the bank, and church on Sunday. A slow walk at Flag Pole Hill or along the White Rock Creek trail is a good outing for a parent who needs to keep moving.
The caregiver drives, in your parent's car or their own. Keeping the outings going is what keeps a week from shrinking to the television.

Can you start when my father leaves Presbyterian Dallas?
Yes. Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas and Medical City Dallas are the hospitals we discharge from most in Lake Highlands. We can meet you there and have a caregiver at the house the first night home.

Can the caregiver take my parent to the Town Center or the library?
Yes. Driving and errands are part of the service, in your parent's car or the caregiver's. Outings that keep a routine going are written into the care plan.
Is this medical home health?
No. We are a licensed non-medical Personal Assistance Services agency, Texas License #020448. We handle daily living, not nursing, and we work alongside Medicare home health, therapists and hospice when they are involved.
