A full range of services are offered including assistance with dressing, bathing, and personal hygiene. Wheelchairs and walkers are accepted, as well as incontinence, Parkinson's, diabetes, dementia and Alzheimer's.

Each Colorado Assisted Living home has between six and eight residents. "This is not your big impersonal institution, said Eunice; we have created small intimate home environments. We provide personal care, 24 hours a day, by loving and compassionate caregivers. We believe in helping each resident function at their highest level of independence to preserve their dignity and self worth. "

At Colorado Assisted Living homes residents are not sitting depressed behind the closed doors of their rooms. "We know where our residents are, Eunice said, we are able to give them one on one care, we have never had more that eight residents per staff and most of the time we have four residents to one staff."

Respite care allows caretakers to allow temporary or occasional time off to recoup emotionally, handle other family tasks or get away for awhile.

Respite strengthens the ability of families and primary caregivers to continue to provide care in the home. Occasional relief supports family stability and well-being. Respite is often referred to as a gift of time.

At Colorado Assisted Living, we can help. We offer full service respite care on a space available basis, whether you need to be gone for a week or a weekend, a day or a month, your loved one will get the same great care as our regular residents.

At Colorado Assisted Living Homes small doesn't mean less. Quite the contrary, all Colorado Assisted Living homes offer a full array of activities and events.
