I am a friend or relative of a current/past residentReview of Winslow Court

My mom has been a resident of Winslow Court for about a month now. The staff is friendly. Her room is like an apartment. She has a window so she can see outside. It is pretty good, and it is clean. She is by herself, but she is supposed to get a roommate sometime. It has a little kitchen in it. They are really good about helping her go to the dining room. I'm impressed with it. They have studios and two-bedrooms, which they consider apartments. We can't go to her room yet because of the virus, but we can visit her down in the common area. They have a beauty salon, which they have just opened back up, they have a garden area, and they allow pets, too. The grounds are really nice. The facility is nice, clean, well kept, and easy to get to. I would recommend it to anybody. My mom likes the food. It's reasonably priced, but they add on for everything that they do, and so that's one thing. If everything was in one price, that would be better, but it's still not as expensive as some other places.

I am/was a resident of this facilityReview of The Palisades at Broadmoor Park

I've been living in The Palisades at Broadmoor Park since July. It wasn't what I expected. The staff is wonderful, but the rooms are not very big. I have my own room, but I share a bathroom. It's really nice here, but I just don't like it. We get three meals a day. They have games and stuff. I got sick with COVID, and I'm just getting over everything. I haven't seen much of anything in all that time. The food is terrible. We have a nurse who wouldn't help us, but she's gone now, so now we have no nurse whatsoever.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past residentReview of Cheyenne Place

My mom is staying at Cheyenne Place in Colorado Springs, and they are absolutely fantastic. They're a great team. They go beyond the call of duty, they're available 24/7, and they helped us out about how to move in. It's just a wonderful place, and I guess she likes her neighbors, too. Everything is included, like laundry, housekeeping, and meals, and the price is reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. I'd give them a five-star rating any day. They are the greatest. She's in quarantine right now because she just got in. They do that for ten days, so they bring her meals to her during that. Once she gets out of quarantine, she can either have her meals brought to her, or she can dine in the facility's dining room.

I visited this facilityReview of Brookdale Skyline

I went in-person to Brookdale Skyline. We were in assisted living, and I liked it. I would not have a problem putting my dad there, but they kind of fumbled a few things for us and never filled in a few of the blanks. When we actually met, the staff told us a few things and neglected to tell us the whole story. That's when I thought assisted living might be an option, but I don't think at this time assisted living again will be an option for him. The facility was nice. I saw a small 1-bedroom apartment, nothing special, nice enough, probably a little dated, but it wasn't terrible. I only met with one person. She's a very nice lady, but she didn't fill in some of the blanks that I would have liked to have filled in. She spent at least two hours with us, which I did appreciate.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past residentReview of Holiday Sunridge

My mom moved into Sunridge. It's OK. The apartment she really likes, it's small, it doesn't have a stove, so they get their meals, but she's not very happy with the meals, 'cause she's very picky about what she eats. I tend to bring her food from home, and whatever she could cook in the microwave she cooks. The staff seems nice, but all very young. It has a nice layout, but it's very expensive.

My dad chose The Inn at Garden Plaza because it suited him. It was a clean, neat, and an up-to-date community. They sent home a package with us, which was baked goods.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past residentReview of Brookdale Vista Grande

My mother is at Brookdale Vista Grande. The services are adequate, and she receives good treatment, but that could be improved. They make sure she gets her medication and everything on time. She has a studio with a little kitchenette, a refrigerator and a sink, a sleeping area, a bathroom, and a small area that could be utilized as a dining room. They have larger rooms for couples that have a kitchenette, a dining room, and a sitting area. For the last three or four months they've had practically nothing, but they usually have religious services that came in on Saturdays and they would spend an hour singing hymns. They would have other people come in and people would bring dogs in. There's not much activity going on right now except the TV room, and they've removed about two-thirds of the chairs. The dining facility is open, but it's well spaced out.

I visited this facilityReview of Winslow Court

We will be moving into Winslow Court. We've been down there for activities and meals, and we hooked pictures and put things on the wall. It's been remodeled recently, so it's really nice. We feel comfortable there. Everybody's really nice and we get along well with them. We haven't met anybody we didn't like yet. We have a 2-bedroom apartment. You can also have just a room or a 1-bedroom apartment. They have all kinds of amenities and the food is excellent. We've been to a bingo game and some music programs. There's a retired pianist there, and she just plays whenever she wants. I went to a church service there last week, they've done some outings, and they have a bus that takes anybody to Wal-Mart and Dollar Tree. We've enjoyed it immensely. The staff members in the dining room are so sweet. They know our name, and we don't even live there yet. The halls are long though; I'd rather the halls be a little less long because I'm in a wheelchair.

I visited this facilityReview of The Palisades at Broadmoor Park

The Palisades at Broadmoor Park was really nice. They had a dining room, but they said you don't have to come to the dining room to eat. They'll bring you whatever food you want to your room anytime you want it. They had independent living, assisted living, and memory care facilities. However, it was all open, and I was not comfortable with the fact that my mother could get up and walk out. While we were there, nobody seemed to care. It wasn't locked down for assisted living, which was one of our criteria wherever we went. They had individual apartments. The shared apartments had a common living room and a common bathroom, and a bedroom of your own that was large enough to accommodate a bed, a recliner, and a table. It's a fairly recent facility, so the wear-and-tear was very minimal. You get your money's worth. They had a whole bunch of activities going on. They had movies, games, religious services, and popcorn machines. They had menus like you would see at a restaurant.

The Cost of Assisted Living in Surrounding Areas

Care Cost Comparison

Senior care costs depend primarily on the type of care provided. In Colorado Springs, assisted living is slightly higher than home health services at $100 to $200 more per month. However, assisted living includes living expenses, such as rent, utilities and food, that aren’t factored into the cost of either homemaker services or home health aides. These expenses should be considered when determining the overall budget for remaining at home. Nursing homes are between 50% and 70% more expensive than assisted living and home health services, yet they also offer the highest level of care.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Colorado Springs

Medicaid in Colorado

Seniors living in Colorado may qualify for Medicaid, the nationally funded health care system, which provides free or low-cost care to low-income individuals. This program covers a broad spectrum of health care services and costs, including inpatient and outpatient hospital services and physician visits. Eligibility is determined through Health First Colorado, and the program is administered through the state’s Department of Health Care Policy and Financing.

To qualify for Medicaid in Colorado, individuals must bring in no more than $2,313 monthly and possess no more than $2,000 in assets. Couples limits are higher, at $4,626 for monthly incomes and up to $3,000 in assets ($4,000 if both are living in the same nursing home room).

All income is considered by Medicaid when determining eligibility, including Supplemental Security Income, IRA withdrawals, cash and bank accounts. A primary residence valued at $585,000 or less, one automobile, household furnishings and burial trusts are excluded from eligibility requirements.

According to the American Council on Aging, those who are over the Medicaid income limit may be able to establish a Qualified Income Trust. The QIT allows individuals seeking long-term care services to qualify. Funds in the QIT may only be used for specific purposes, such as medical expenses or nursing home care, and upon the death of the Medicaid recipient, the remaining funds must be paid to the Colorado Department of Care.

For more information about Colorado’s Medicaid program or to apply, visit Health First Colorado or call (800) 221-3943. You may also visit or call Colorado Springs’ county Human Services office at (719) 636-0000.

The Elderly, Blind or Disabled (EBD) waiver is one of 6 Home and Community-Based Services waivers available in Colorado. To qualify, Individuals must be 65 or over, have a qualified functional impairment or be blind and wish to remain in their homes or communities.

To learn more or to apply, visit Colorado’s Department of Health Care Policy and Financing EBD waiver page or call (800) 221-3943. Those who have already enrolled in Health First Colorado should contact Rocky Mountain Options for Long-Term Care at (719) 457-0660.
