# Denver Memory Care Options

Denver has four memory care options: a secured neighborhood inside a larger community, a standalone memory care building, a small residential care home, and skilled nursing with dementia support. Behavior and medical need decide which one fits. Our help choosing is free.

## What are the four memory care options in Denver?

Each one is a real setting with a real license, not a marketing tier. Here is who each fits and what to ask.

## How should you compare Denver memory care communities?

Six questions separate a good building from a good tour. We ask them with you, in person.

- Watch a shift change. Ten minutes at 3 p.m. tells you more than any tour.
- Ask the ratio at 2 a.m., in numbers, and ask what happens when one caregiver calls out.
- Ask how many residents have moved out in the past year because care needs outgrew the building.
- Ask what happens when someone refuses a shower, or tries the door at night. Listen for redirection, not restriction.
- Ask who is dementia certified on staff, and how often the whole team trains.
- Eat a meal there. Dining is where dignity shows up or does not.
