Horizon House sits in Indian Harbor Beach along Florida's east coast, in a community of around 8,976 people, and folks who move here usually need to be over 60 but sometimes younger adults with health care needs can qualify. The place offers different living options, like independent living that runs about $2,685 a month, assisted living at around $2,804 monthly, memory care near $4,344, and nursing home choices for $5,608. There's financial eligibility to think through, with costs, insurance, and support programs that help offset some bills. The staff does medical and needs assessments to figure out how much help someone might need, especially with daily activities. Assisted living gives help with things like dressing, bathing, medication, and meals, and residents can bring cats or dogs if they want a companion.
The campus is secure, especially in memory care, and trained staff work around the clock with programs and activities meant for folks with memory issues, and everyone gets meals, laundry, and housekeeping done for them, which does help. There are one-bedroom apartments, suites, and semi-private rooms, all fully furnished, with wheelchair-accessible showers and Wi-Fi. The setting keeps a sense of independence for residents while making sure supervision and medical attention-like physical and speech therapy, rehab, and medication management-are always available. For folks with dementia or Alzheimer's, the care includes special colored cues, puzzles, and brain games to help with memory. Atlantis Urgent Care and several other hospitals and medical centers are close by for prompt attention.
The whole campus holds up to 96 seniors and every community-with different license numbers, depending on the address-focuses on different care needs, from a small board and care home of 5 to 6 residents, to larger buildings. Residents get support with daily needs, diabetic diets, and incontinence care, plus scheduled activities, social events, and access to parks like Canova Beach Dog Park, Gleason Park, and Bicentennial Beach Park. Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) options let residents age in place, adding more care as their needs change. Transportation to appointments, community events, and local outings is part of life here, and the staff helps with everything from choosing what to wear to reassuring those who feel anxious. Horizon House's main purpose is to offer safe senior housing and daily support, with the flexibility to adjust care as needed, all in a setting built for older adults to live with dignity and as much independence as possible.
