Inspection record
○ IMMEDIATE JEOPARDY CITED (LEVEL E) — READ THE REPORT
The state cited at least one Level E deficiency in the last 24 months. Level E is Colorado’s most serious finding, which the state calls Immediate Jeopardy: actual or potential serious injury or harm. This residence is still listed and may since have corrected it, but read the report first and ask what changed.
Survey history
Every state survey on record for this residence since July 2023, most recent first. The label above reflects the most serious Level cited in the last 24 months — this table is the whole record, so you can see which way it is going.
| Survey | Type | Cited |
|---|---|---|
| May 2026 | Licensure (Re-licensure) | No deficiencies cited |
| May 2025 | Revisit: Licensure Complaint; Revisit: Licensure and Licensure Complaint (Combined) Follow-up only — no full survey that day | 1 at Level C, 3 at Level B, 4 at Level A |
| Oct 2024 | Licensure and Licensure Complaint (Combined); Revisit: Licensure Complaint | 1 at Level E, 1 at Level C, 4 at Level B, 5 at Level A |
Survey types are the state’s own wording; one date can combine several. A follow-up (the state writes “Revisit”) re-checks whether earlier findings were corrected, so it covers less ground than a full survey — which is why a clean follow-up alone never earns a clean record here. Counts are deficiencies cited at each severity Level; read the methodology page for what the Levels mean, and ask the residence for the reports themselves.
Ask on your tour
-
Do you have a secured memory-care unit — and how many of your licensed beds are inside it?
Colorado’s public facility roster records a residence’s total licensed beds, but not whether any of them sit in a secured dementia unit. There is no way to know this from the outside.
-
How many staff are awake and on the floor overnight, for how many residents?
No public dataset carries staffing ratios by shift.
-
What happens when a resident tries to leave? Walk me through the last time it happened.
Door security and wander-response protocols are not part of the public record.
-
Which of your staff have completed dementia-specific training under SB 22-079, and how would I verify that?
Colorado requires this training but does not track or publish compliance — asking is the only way to find out.
-
May I see your most recent state inspection report, including anything the state cited you for?
Inspection reports are public but sit behind CDPHE’s Find & Compare lookup one facility at a time. A residence that hands you its own report without being pushed is telling you something.
