Nonprofit assisted living in Highlands, Texas
A caring place to call home, grounded in mission
Mountbatten House is a small, nonprofit, 24-resident Type A assisted-living home at 213 Maple St, Highlands, TX 77562. Everyday support and ordinary home life can exist together—without a sales-funnel pitch.
Public listing information has referenced private rooms starting around $1,700, but that figure is an approximate public reference rather than a current quote. Rates, inclusions, and availability can change. Please confirm current operations and details directly.
Mission & affordability
Affordability is part of the mission
Affordability is more than a number on a directory page. It can mean explaining what a base rate includes, identifying which care needs may change the monthly amount, and giving a family a straightforward way to ask questions before deciding.
A nonprofit home may view the resident relationship through a charitable purpose rather than a luxury-marketing model. That does not remove the need to discuss fees clearly—it makes clarity and dignity especially important.
When you contact Mountbatten House, ask about the current private-room rate, included meals, housekeeping, personal-care support, medication assistance, deposits, supplies, respite terms, and any services that could be billed separately.
What to confirm early
- Current operations and visit options
- Private-room rate and what it includes
- Care fit for activities of daily living
- Medication support within the home’s scope
- Whether a short-term or longer stay is discussed
A smaller home
A more personal rhythm
A 24-resident Type A assisted-living setting has a different rhythm from a large campus. Some people appreciate knowing the setting is intentionally limited in size.
Meals & housekeeping
Shared meals and housekeeping support can ease daily tasks. Ask what is included and how dietary needs are handled.
Medication questions
Medication assistance or management depends on the operator’s scope. Bring a current list and ask how support works day and night.
Around-the-clock support
“24-hour support” means resident support or oversight appropriate to Type A assisted living—not a promise of 24-hour skilled nursing on site.

Starting information families can use
~$1,700 / mo private start (third-party published)
Seniorly has publicly referenced private rooms starting around $1,700. This is an approximate public reference—not a guaranteed current quote. Rates, inclusions, care needs, and availability can change. Confirm directly before treating any figure as official.
Community life
A day with room for support and choice
Life in assisted living is made of small transitions: waking, personal care, breakfast, medication routines, rest, activities, visits, and evening wind-down. The exact schedule varies by resident and should be confirmed with the operator.
The value of a day is not measured by how full the calendar is. It may be a good day because a resident got enough rest, ate a comfortable meal, heard from family, or made a choice about what to do next.
Care fit
Assisted living—not dedicated memory care
Mountbatten House is a Type A assisted-living home, not a nursing home and not a dedicated memory care community. Families researching Memory Care Highlands options should ask what support is appropriate now and when a specialized setting may be needed.
Honest limits matter. Mild memory loss may still fit assisted living for some people; continuous dementia-specific supervision, secured environments, or intensive redirection often point toward dedicated memory care. The operator should confirm fit for each person.
