New Horizon Senior Citizen Home is licensed for Assisted Living and is structured to deliver a broad scope of clinical support. Residents have access to on-site nurses, a visiting physical therapist, occupational therapist, and podiatrist, along with coordinated services from Alton Memorial Hospital when higher-level care is required. The community accommodates moderate dementia and operates a separate memory-care wing for residents who need a more secure environment. Care teams are trained to address behavioral issues, provide wound care, and monitor diabetics who use oral medications. Medication management is available for every resident, and hospice services can be initiated in place when appropriate.

Beyond clinical interventions, New Horizon supplies daily living assistance calibrated to individual needs. Staff can help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting when some physical assistance is necessary, and transfer support ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person assists for walkers and wheelchairs. Incontinence and ambulatory care are routinely managed, and the community’s memory-care specialists oversee structured programs that reinforce orientation and safety. These service layers aim to let residents maintain as much independence as their health will safely allow.

Accommodations include studios and companion suites; some offer a private bathroom and independent temperature controls, while others provide shared amenities. Each room is equipped with emergency call features and is laid out to support wheelchair navigation. Families should confirm which specific features are present in the rooms they are considering, as not all apartments include every accommodation option.

Dining follows a set menu prepared by dietary staff trained in senior nutrition. Three daily meals are served in a communal dining room, and snacks are available throughout the day. Therapeutic diets—such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanically altered textures—can be arranged upon a physician’s order. For residents in the Independent Living segment, medication-management monitoring is available; licensed staff oversee prescription refills, compliance checks, and coordination with outside pharmacies, allowing these residents to remain in a less-restrictive setting while still having their medications tracked.

Amenities are limited but practical: resident parking is provided for those who still drive or for visiting family members.
