About Lemay Avenue Health & Rehab Facility

Lemay Avenue Health & Rehab Facility is a skilled nursing and long-term care community in Fort Collins, Colorado, licensed for 130 residents.

Family experiences here are notably mixed. Some visitors report genuine warmth across multiple shifts, with one family noting the entire staff "actually cares about the patients." Physical and occupational therapy staff (Anne and Ashley) receive consistent praise for their patience and encouragement. However, other families describe inconsistency in core services, medication management, call light response times, and bathing schedules vary noticeably, and one family wrote that "other staff members performances are spotty." A recent change in ownership appears to have reshaped operations; some families mention declines in food quality, staffing morale, and general care consistency since the transition.

The facility itself maintains a clean, homey environment with dining options families appreciate when services align. The rating stands at 3.5 out of 5 across 26 reviews, reflecting genuine strengths in staff attitude and therapy services alongside real concerns about reliability in daily care delivery.

Excellent PT (Anne) & OT (Ashley) They are so kind and encouraging. I really enjoyed working with them and learning from them. Other staff members performances are spotty, including medication management and call light response times. It seems as though there isn't much middle ground as far as the nursing staff goes. They are either great & try very hard to meet the needs of their patients or... not so much. Before considering this facility for rehab, please be aware that there are no opportunities for PT or OT on the weekends. Rehab patients are basically shelved for those 2 days, often losing hard fought ground before Monday. I found that it was very difficult to get orders processed for outside equipment. Follow-thru seems to be an area in need of improvement. Most of the staff is very pleasant and obviously seeks to provide good care. However, try not to be admitted on a Friday afternoon, as orders, medications and Care Plans are not always ready, then there is the issue with the lack of weekend therapy.

With the new owners, there are numerous problems. Showers are hit and miss, food is nowhere near as good as it used to be, meds may or may not be given, general care is not consistent. Nurses and staff are not as happy as they used to be, overworked stressed to the max. It's not the great place it used to be. New owners that are cheap and like every other nursing home, they're just there for the money, not the patients welfare. I wouldn't recommend this place as a nursing home, just not very good at all. I could go into detail, but all you have to do is check reviews on most every nursing home. Anything bad is what this place has become. Really sad, especially for my mom.

One of the best in the country. Caring staff and concern about the patients. Note: it has recently changed hands so this may alter with time.

I’ve visited several rehab assisted living facilities in two states and this place is the best. The facility is in tip top shape with great dining options and a homey environment. But the best part is the entire staff actually cares about the patients. Even with staffing shortages that exist everywhere, at Lemay every one is buzzing around with a smile. I’m so happy my mom is here.

I usually only share bad reviews on google as to warn others of bad experiences but we were so impressed by this facility, I had to share that and give them a review. My 89 year old mother stayed at this facilty for a short time; only a few months, and in that time, I visited at least twice a week or more so got to see multiple shifts of care professionals and staff. I didnt meet one person that wasnt on top of thier game. Sure, there were a couple of the young, new CNA's, that werent as knowledgeable as others, but it was obvious they cared and most important, my mother felt that. From head nurses, to CNA's, to activity directors, to nutritionists, to floor charge nurses, to transportation directors, to social workers, to OT/PT staff, to housekeeping, my mother and I saw them all trying hard to make her feel comfortable and cared for and when you are patient that doesnt want to be there in the first place or a family member advocating for them, it is so important to have that level of care. Whats also great is it's obvious they know that. My mother was pretty much wheelchair bound, had terrible hearing, her eyesight was bad with macular degeneration. Everyone accomdated her by speaking up, getting close, and also reading things to her that she couldnt on her own. Daily activities and lunch options, etc. Event the activities directors would come get her to try and encourage her to join in activities although she was embarrased by the fact she couldnt see or hear which made her feel isolated, they did a good job helping her with things to make her feel more comfortable. Her room and bathroom was big and spacious enough to accomodate her wheelchair and her bed was comfortable. This is something we had not experienced at other facilities she's been at. Food was good. Laundry was good. At some point her insurance wanted to discharge her as they only allowed so many days and we didnt agree she was ready to leave. The social worker there helped navigate communication with us and the insurance company to try and get them to reconsider, which they did and she was able to stay a bit longer. After we finally had to have her leave this place, we went to a place that was not nice at all and a terrible experience. It made her realize just how much she loved this place and hoped I would write a good review for them. It wasnt too long after leaving Lemay, that she passed away but it makes me feel so appreciative that the last part of her life, she got to experience the love and care this place provided. I cant thank them enough. Isaac, Pam, John, you guys should feel very proud of the work you do there.
