Application Process - New Horizons

Prospective residents who have already visited New Horizons and met with staff may begin the sign-up process by submitting their Application for Residency. Click here to download and print out a copy of the standard application form. Completed applications should be accompanied by the fully applied $300 Application Fee, and, when applicable, a fully-refundable $2,000 Waitlist Deposit.

If you have not yet visited New Horizons but are ready to start the procedure, please print out and complete the brief application form, and either mail it in or bring it with you when you visit and select your unit. The application process typically takes only a few days.

It includes review of a physician's recommendation, a guarantor's financial disclosure and the application form, and culminates in a meeting with the applicant.

Each resident's specific needs can only be determined through a careful evaluation, following receipt of the Physician's Statement.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE Although most seniors would prefer assisted living over nursing home residence, assisted living facilities in Massachusetts may not provide 24-hour skilled nursing care, and they are not appropriate for everyone. Residents come and go as they wish. They are not under constant oversight, and sometimes they make choices that may not appear to be in their own best interests. New Horizons is a not-for-profit community which provides personalized supportive services with the activities of daily living, but does not, and cannot, monitor its residents.
