What level of care is Horizons certified for?
In the Department of Health's capacity report, 47 are Assisted Living Program (ALP) beds paid by Medicaid.
These numbers are caps. A building with 20 EALR beds can only keep 20 residents at the enhanced level at once, so ask how many of those beds are filled today. See what ALR, EALR and SNALR mean.

- Ask how many aides and supervisors are awake overnight, and who helps residents with medications.
- Ask whether an Assisted Living Program bed is open for a Medicaid applicant, and how long the wait usually runs.
- Ask for the residency agreement and fee schedule in writing before any deposit; New York requires a written admission agreement.
