My recently deceased mother was a resident of Beehive Homes for the last 10 months of her life.<br><br>I cannot overstate my appreciation to Jan and the Beehive staff for the quality of compassionate care Mom received. I live in Nevada with significant portion of my time in Jan's role coordinating care for my 28 year old profoundly Autistic daughter. It is tough, most days not pleasant and yet completely fulfilling. As such I know great caregivers when I see them. Jan and the Beehive staff are in the highest echelon of caregivers.<br><br>Beehive Homes has been easy to work with regarding financial issues and insurance coordination. Jan is transparent and upfront regarding cost / services provided in all financial transactions.<br><br>Far and away the most valuable service provided by Beehive Homes is peace of mind. Rest assured love ones will be well cared for at Beehive Homes.<br><br>The Cortez Community is well served by Beehive Homes.

This is a wonderful facility. With a small number of residents the staff gives very individualized care. There is great communication between staff and family and the facility is clean, with individual rooms a beautiful common area and wonderful meals. After eight months of care for my loved one I have nothing but praise for the great work that is done here.

I have found Jan Gardner and the staff at Beehive Homes compassionate and sensitive to the needs of my nearly one hundred year old father. It gives me peace of mind to know that he's living in a pleasant home where he's well cared for with kindness and love.

My wonderful husband lived in the BeeHive Home for the last year of his life. The staff were professional and treated my husband with loving tender care...they appreciated his great sense of humor so he was able to enjoy his time at the Home. They were flexible about visiting times. I was able to spend a fair amount of time with him as well as taking him out for walks, lunch or shopping. For their professional and personal time they spent taking care of him I'll forever be grateful.

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Colorado asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.
