Overview of Horizons Personal Care

Horizons Personal Care provides assisted living-level personal care, memory care, and respite stays in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Operated by The Villa Crest LLC, the 56-bed personal care home is located on Frankstown Road in Cambria County and provides 24/7 on-site nursing services. Across four inspections since February 2023, Horizons recorded 12 total deficiencies, a rate of approximately 4 per year, roughly 15% below the Pennsylvania average of 4.7. The most recent visit, a complaint investigation in April 2025, found no deficiencies, and the complaint was not substantiated.

At inspections, between 8 and 10 residents were enrolled in hospice, a notable share of the census that reflects the facility’s capacity for higher-acuity and end-of-life care. Services include assistance with activities of daily living, meal preparation, salon and beauty services, religious programming, and crafts and entertainment. The facility features scenic courtyards and accepts Medicare and private pay.

Since 2023 · 3 years of data 10 citations 0 complaints 4 inspections 0 waivers
Inspection Score Info A composite 0–100 score combining this facility's inspections, citations, complaints, and enforcement actions relative to the Pennsylvania state average. The score below shows how many points this facility sits above or below the typical Pennsylvania assisted living residence score (the benchmark); higher is better.

Waivers Info A higher number of waivers may indicate the facility relies on staff who don't fully meet standard credential requirements. A lower number may suggest the facility meets staffing qualification standards without exemptions.

This Facility PA Average vs. PA Avg
  • Waivers are Pennsylvania Department of Health exemptions that let a facility operate outside required staffing ratios or staff credential rules. A higher count can signal that the facility regularly relies on exceptions — for example, fewer nursing hours per resident or staff who don't fully meet qualification standards — which may affect day-to-day care.
