New Lenox Horizon offers an Independent Living program designed for residents who want the reassurance of available medical oversight without the daily demands of home ownership. A licensed nurse is on-site or on-call, and each apartment is equipped with an emergency response system that links residents to staff at any hour. Routine wellness checks, help with scheduling physician appointments, and coordination with outside health providers are standard practices, aimed at maintaining residents’ health and catching concerns early.
Beyond direct medical support, the community provides individualized service plans that can include medication reminders, escorted transportation to local medical visits, and access to fitness classes that target balance and strength. Staff members organize health education sessions and encourage residents to participate in preventive screenings arranged through local healthcare partners. Housekeeping and maintenance are handled by team members, freeing residents to focus on wellness and community engagement.
Apartments at New Lenox Horizon come in multiple floor plans, all of which are pet friendly, though not every unit contains every available feature such as in-unit laundry or walk-in showers. Each residence is wired for basic cable, phone, and internet, and includes a kitchenette for simple meal preparation. Safety features such as grab bars and smoke detectors are standard, and maintenance requests are addressed by on-site personnel.
Dining is offered in a communal dining room where residents can choose from chef-prepared meals served at set times each day. Menus rotate regularly and emphasize balanced nutrition, with accommodations for physician-ordered dietary restrictions such as low-sodium or diabetic options. For those who prefer flexibility, a casual bistro area provides lighter fare and beverages throughout the day.
Social and recreational programming centers on the community’s Activity Center, which hosts exercise sessions, hobby groups, and educational presentations. Transportation for scheduled outings, routine housekeeping, and basic utilities are included in the monthly fee, and residents have access to a concierge service that manages maintenance requests and appointment scheduling.
