Shorewood Horizon offers Independent Living for adults who can manage most daily activities on their own but want the reassurance of professional oversight. A staff member is on site around the clock, and the building is secured 24 hours a day, so assistance is available at any hour if a health concern or other emergency arises. Residents may arrange for outside home-health or therapy providers to visit as needed, and the team coordinates access to these services to help maintain continuity of care.
In addition to continuous staffing and security, the community completes regular wellness checks by request, tracks residents’ basic vital signs if desired, and maintains on-file medical information to expedite response in case of an urgent event. Staff members schedule transportation to medical appointments and handle prescription reminders for residents who request that support. These features are intended to let residents keep their independence while knowing qualified help is close by.
Apartments are designed for privacy and practicality. Many units include a private bathroom and independent temperature controls, though not every floor plan offers both features, so prospective residents should confirm availability during a tour. Housekeeping and maintenance staff handle routine upkeep so residents can focus on daily interests. Each building wing is equipped with elevators and handrails to make moving between common areas and residences straightforward.
Daily meals are prepared on site and served in a central dining room, with menus that note nutritional details to help residents follow physician-recommended diets. A continental breakfast bar is open early for those who prefer light fare, and the kitchen team accommodates most common dietary restrictions when given advance notice. Independent Living residents may also choose to do their own cooking in their apartment kitchens and handle their own linens; however, optional laundry service is available for those who want staff to collect, wash, fold, and return clothing and bedding on a regular schedule.
Community conveniences further support an active lifestyle. Residents have access to parking spaces, storage lockers on each floor, patios or balconies in select units, and a community room fitted with a full kitchen for group events. Shared activity areas include an arts and crafts room, a game room with a billiards table, a library with a fireplace, and a gazebo that opens to an outdoor patio. An outside walking path with benches encircles the property for light exercise. The campus is near public transportation, making off-site errands and social outings easier to arrange.
