Rocky Mountain Assisted Living and Memory Care

Rocky Mountain Assisted Living and Memory Care in Lakewood, Colorado provides assisted living and memory care services tailored to individual residents' needs. The community serves seniors who can no longer live independently but do not require full-time medical care, offering support with daily living tasks while promoting autonomy and independence.

The community emphasizes personalized care rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, recognizing that residents have unique needs and preferences. Services included in room and board fees encompass medication administration by licensed staff, art and music classes, exercise classes and physical therapy, assistance with bathing and dressing, meal preparation and cooking services, accessible transportation, housekeeping, and 24-hour on-site staff support. A rounding physician checks on residents' health regularly, with the service typically covered by insurance.

The facilities are designed to feel residential and homelike rather than clinical, with attention to decor, landscaping, and personal touches. Units feature hardwood floors, wide door frames and hallways to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers, accessible bathrooms with handrails and safety fixtures, and fully equipped kitchens that allow residents to prepare meals independently if they wish. The community also offers spa-level jacuzzi tubs modified for accessibility and provides hair styling services.

Social engagement is fostered through group activities and events designed to combat isolation and loneliness. The community recognizes that assisted living offers greater independence and autonomy compared to nursing homes, which can positively impact residents' mental health and quality of life. Month-to-month contracts provide flexibility as residents' needs change over time.
