Edgewood Sierra Hills in Cheyenne is an excellent assisted living community in Cheyenne, Wyoming. It is within bustling Laramie County which is part of the Cowboy State.
You or your loved one will enjoy ultimate convenience and exceptional care in the Equality State’s capital city. At Edgewood Sierra Hills, we believe everyone deserves equal access to quality, affordable senior living services and care. Through our Assisted Living services, we offer area seniors a quality choice to meet all your care needs while providing countless opportunities for socialization, enrichment and activity. Plus, our residents also enjoy the benefit of having on-site Therapy Services provided by Edgewood’s healthcare services division, CaringEdge.
We know home isn’t a place as much as it is a feeling, and we can help ease your mind and create the connections that will make Edgewood home. Our Assisted Living offers gracious living spaces with sun-filled rooms and remarkable amenities, plus the people to provide the care you need, when you need it. The notion of moving out of the place you’ve called home for 10, 20 or even 50 years is a difficult and scary thought, but with our friendly faces and warm environments we can help you make your home right here.
Short-Term Stays are exactly what they say they are: brief, overnight stays in a fully-furnished Assisted Living or Memory Care apartment. Stays can be as short as 24 hours or up to several months, and may be for a family member or yourself. If you are a caregiver to a family member, a short-term stay might be just the thing to remove worry and allow you to take that long overdue vacation. Maybe you are preparing for or recovering from surgery, or are considering a move to Assisted or Independent Living but are not ready to commit to a move. Either for a family member while you’re away, or yourself when you need a little extra help, a short-term stay might be right for you. Knowing that Edgewood has more than 20 years of expertise in operating Short-Term Stay programs means you can remove the worry and stay with us.

Our therapists are committed to making you stronger at every level; they do a lot more than just stretch and strengthen weak muscles or joints after an injury or surgery. Therapists are skilled at evaluating and diagnosing potential problems before they lead to more serious injuries or conditions, proactively offering solutions to help avoid future life-changing events, such as a fall.
Our goal is to make a significant improvement in our residents’ lives by providing exceptional therapeutic services and care, while promoting optimal health, wellness, safety and function, through offering:
- Physical therapy helps maintain mobility and quality of life. Physical therapists can get you moving again, using scientifically based treatment techniques that focus on restoring function, reducing pain, and correcting or preventing injury – staying active can help manage your overall long-term health.
- Occupational therapy practitioners use research and scientific evidence to ensure their interventions are effective. With a strong knowledge of a person’s psychological, physical, emotional and social makeup, occupational therapists can evaluate how your condition is affecting your body and mind. An occupational therapist will evaluate your situation and, with input from you, family, friends and/or care providers, develop individualized goals that will allow you to resume or improve valued daily activities.
- Speech therapy is provided by licensed speech-language pathologists (SLPs), who work to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication and swallowing disorders in residents that have experienced an injury or illness that affects their communication.
