Horizon Manor stands as a residential care home built back in 1920, and it's got a bit of old Victorian charm with a home-style country inn kind of feel, offering seniors both private and semi-private apartments, and companion suites if folks want to share their space, and the building has rooms that are cable and telephone ready, with full tubs, emergency call systems, and smoke detectors, plus a sprinkler system, which makes for a pretty safe setting, especially with the grounds all landscaped and a lawn and garden out there, and inside you'll find common areas like a cozy lounge and a TV room for movies or get-togethers.
There's a full schedule of activities every day, with planned leisure events, arts and crafts, exercise classes, recreational opportunities, religious activities, and trips out, plus there's weekly visiting entertainers and daily movies or music from the 1940s and 1950s, all planned so folks of different skill levels can join in and feel involved, and the staff aims to keep things going so life stays lively.
Horizon Manor gives care on a lot of different levels, including Assisted Living, Alzheimer's and Memory Care, Respite Care for shorter visits, hospice services if needed, and Home Care, and they have nurses, nursing assistants, and aides around 24/7 with a registered nurse always on call doing weekly health checks and making sure medications are managed right, so help is always there, whether it's daily living needs like bathing, dressing, or reminders for medication and meals, or more skilled care like handling diabetes, giving injections, or looking after incontinence issues.

Horizon Manor tries to let people age in place, meaning they want folks to stay put and keep getting the help they need as health changes, with supervision on site day and night, and if someone needs just a short stay after an illness or if family needs a break, there are respite and short-term options where care's all inclusive for however long's needed, and hospice care can also be arranged if things get to that point.

Meals, daily living support, and activities big and small fill the days, and there's always someone to turn to, which means folks can feel comfortable, safe, and looked after without losing touch with the homelike feeling that Horizon Manor tries to hold on to, especially for those dealing with memory loss, chronic health, or just needing a little day-to-day help.
