The Rulebook

The rules that apply to this facility.

State requirements with the exact regulation citation, plain-language explanation, and a question to ask on tour. Rules this facility has been cited for appear first.

Who licenses this assisted living residence?C.R.S. 25-27-104 · 6 CCR 1011-1 Chapter 7
+
Plain language

CDPHE licenses assisted living residences. A secure environment for residents who need one is optional under Chapter 7, Part 25. CDPHE does not publish a facility-level list of homes that have that option, so this page does not call the home state-verified memory care.

Ask on tour

“Ask whether the home has a secure environment, and ask to see the part of the license that says so.”

Tour Prep

CDPHE has four inspection reports on file with one deficiency cited — can you share the corrective action plan that was submitted to the state, and walk us through what changes were made in response to that deficiency?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.

02 /

Four complaints have been filed with CDPHE during the inspection period on record — were any of those complaints substantiated, and what written documentation can you provide about how the facility addressed substantiated findings?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.

03 /

The facility markets memory care services but does not appear on a CDPHE Secure Environment roster — can you explain in writing what dementia-specific programming, staff training, and environmental modifications are in place, and how those differ from the general assisted living services?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.
