Skyline Ridge Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation Center is a skilled nursing facility located in Cañon City, Colorado. Part of the Stellar Living Network, a collective of family-owned and operated senior living communities, Skyline Ridge provides both short-term rehabilitation and longer-term skilled nursing care designed to help residents recover and maintain their quality of life.
The community offers 24-hour skilled nursing care for chronic health conditions with specialized attention and customized care plans. Rehabilitation services are tailored to help residents recover from serious illness or hospital stays through occupational, speech, and physical therapies. The care team collaborates with residents from day one to set goals and work toward maximum independence, with physician-directed care plans implemented moment-by-moment throughout the day.
Amenities and services include all-inclusive dining with meals approved by a certified dietitian and available heart-healthy options upon request. Residents can dine privately in their rooms or in the community dining room. The facility offers on- and off-site activities throughout the week, private transportation for personal medical appointments, and community vehicles for group activities around the area. Residents have their own parking spots if needed and can come and go from the secure community as required by current health and safety regulations.
The physical environment is designed with warmth and comfort for healing, rejecting the cold, institutional feel common in many care facilities. Family and friends are welcome to visit, and the care team is known for both exceptional skills and heart-led service focused on seeing community members as people to support consistently.
Payment options include Medicare, which covers the majority of short-term stays and therapy, private insurance, long-term care insurance, and personal payment. Some state Medicaid programs are accepted at the facility. Family Advisors are available to help families navigate skilled care decisions and address questions about care options and fee structures.
