Ute Pass Senior Residence LLC in Woodland Park, Colorado, uses a board and care home model, which means seniors live in a private or semi-private room in a quiet residential neighborhood where staff provide around-the-clock help. The facility offers different types of care, so there's Assisted Living for those who need support with daily things like bathing, dressing, laundry, and medication management, and there's Independent Living for seniors who still want to keep their independence but enjoy a homelike atmosphere. For elders with Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, the Memory Care program includes special activities to support memory and attentive supervision with trained staff on site at all hours, and at some locations a full-time RN owner oversees care.
The residence features private cottages or shared homes, making the place feel more like a mountain valley haven rather than a large institution, and it's especially focused on creating a comfortable and family-like setting. The staff live on-site in some homes, providing a steady and familiar presence for residents. Ute Pass Senior Residence LLC isn't a pet-friendly community, but visitors and family are welcome, and the place encourages social events and gatherings, such as birthday celebrations and family visits. Residents get home-cooked meals served in a communal dining room, and there are day-to-day activities like music, art, Bible studies, cooking, and group outings to keep everyone engaged and promote a healthy lifestyle.
Amenities support comfort and ease, with activity areas, outdoor spaces for fresh mountain air, and a safe environment built in a tranquil neighborhood. Residents have access to nearby parks, physicians' offices, pharmacies, places of worship, restaurants, and cafés, which makes it easier for families to visit and for seniors to be active in the community if they choose. The care team helps with medication administration, personal hygiene, and housekeeping, and memory care staff offer memory-enhancing activities and special supervision for those who need it. Skilled nursing services, including wound care and rehabilitation, are available for people with more complex health needs, and care is always personalized.
Ute Pass Senior Residence LLC usually serves women with memory impairments in a small community, offering a peaceful atmosphere at rates below the county and state average. It's part of a network of senior living providers through A Place For Mom, and supports seniors who want a less-institutional, more personal way to age in place with access to needed care as health needs change.
