New Horizons Care Center

New Horizons Care Center sits at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains in Lovell, Wyoming, right beside North Big Horn Hospital, and you'll find about 80 elders living there in a calm, individual-centered facility where people have choices about daily routines, like when to get up, go to bed, bathe, eat, or join activities, and family-styled dining is offered to support independence. The center has semi-private rooms with solid dividing walls so there's privacy, just the bathroom shared, and there are large private rooms and suites for couples or singles, all with their own windows and doors, which lets residents keep a bit of control over their space, and staff are available at all hours, including Registered Nurses, L.P.N.s, and a Chief Nursing Officer during the day. There's an attached nine-bed Assisted Living Center for those who need a little help, plus an 85-bed Skilled Nursing Facility, and a separate, secure Memory Care Unit on the second floor with 23 beds specially designed and staffed for people with Alzheimer's Disease, where residents can use the day room and step out onto a patio with views of the mountains. You'll find therapy services like physical, occupational, and respiratory therapy, and the medical clinic inside the hospital has seven providers and is open Monday to Saturday mornings, so getting checkups and lab work's convenient, and they offer a range of health services like digital mammography, bone density tests, and blood pressure checks at no charge. The facility holds parties and events for residents and families, there's a regular schedule of group and individual activities through the day and sometimes in the evening, visiting hours work anytime with locked doors at night for safety, and families can send pictures, letters, or notes by email, which the staff prints and delivers daily, or you can use video calls and phone calls with help from the staff. The center provides support groups for cancer, care giving, and diabetes, runs CPR and first aid training every month, and gives Well-Baby checks, immunizations, and free PKU screening for infants. Staff include a Medical Director, Administrator, Social Service Director, Activities Director, Physical and Occupational Therapists, Dietary Manager and Consultant, and Restorative Aides, all certified and trained to help. The place makes sure cost's not a barrier, using a sliding fee schedule, and keeps focus on accountability, teamwork, and compassion, with access to the North Big Horn Hospital and all its specialists just a short distance away, which gives residents security that medical help's always close by, and if emergency care's needed, there's a 24-hour ER and ambulance service on the spot.
