Noble Horizons sits on a 110-acre wooded and landscaped campus in Salisbury, Connecticut, with lots of walking paths, flower gardens, and sculpture gardens where folks can really stretch their legs and take in a bit of nature. The community's been around since 1972 and it's a nonprofit with a staff of about 51 to 200, which gives it a steady feel and helps keep the place running smoothly. There are several levels of care, from independent living at The Cottages and The Cobble-with private or large private rooms and one-bedroom suites-to intermediate care for help with things like moving around, taking medicines, and personal care. For those needing more, there's skilled nursing care 24 hours a day and short-term or outpatient rehabilitation for folks recovering from sickness or surgery, all with therapy services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy. People can also get memory care and Alzheimer's services if they need them, along with assisted living.
The staff helps residents day and night, with nursing support always available and call buttons in each room, so it's easy to get help when you need it, and a Wellness Coordinator is always ready to listen and support families too. The community has a strong focus on wellness, offering a full-time nurse in the clinic, a personal trainer at the fitness center, and many programs to help you stay active, like indoor and outdoor walking, pet, art, and music therapy, and a wellness fund for extra support. There are planned group trips in a handicap-accessible van, shopping drives, and even Hudson River cruises from time to time.
Meals are served three times a day in the Riga Dining Room, but folks in The Cobble can also use a stocked kitchen if they want. A coffee cafe and a country store are open for something lighter. There are also house-keeping services, and amenities like a beauty salon, spa, and many spaces for gathering, including a chapel, clubhouse, and a lounge, plus cultural and recreational opportunities through the Taconic Learning Center, with college-level classes, art displays, and even a greenhouse with resident pets. Residents can also bring their own pets, and there are pet-friendly rental units, including townhomes and luxury apartments.
Noble Horizons has a strong sense of community, with annual events, a support group for caregivers, and free wellness and educational programs. There's a profile update feature and options for residents and families to manage their accounts or get information. The facility complies with fair housing policies, guarding against discrimination based on things like gender identity or source of income. The entire setting gives you the choice to enjoy life with dignity, keep independence, and get support as needed, all while living in a safe, friendly spot with plenty of resources close at hand. The facility works with Purple Door, LLC, and you can find more about what they offer at NobleHorizons.org.
