Myron Stratton Home-Res Care

Myron Stratton Home-Res Care sits about 2.5 miles outside Stratmoor, Colorado, at 2525 S State Highway 115 in Colorado Springs, and the place has been around since 1909, founded as a non-profit with a mission to help poor folks who can't support themselves because of age, sickness, youth, or other troubles, and they continue that legacy by offering housing, programs, and grants for those in need. This community offers both independent and assisted living, and the rooms are mostly studios and some one- and two-bedroom cottages, so folks can pick what suits them best. Amenities at the property include laundry and housekeeping, on-site hair salons, meal services with planning and nutrition help, and spaces to gather like shared common areas and indoor gathering spots where people can join social and wellness activities, do arts and crafts, or head out on excursions and outings. Residents who need help can get support with daily activities like dressing, bathing, grooming, medication management, and health condition monitoring, and nurses are on staff to provide 24-hour emergency care, even covering diabetic care, non-ambulatory needs, and incontinence. There's transportation for errands and doctor visits, plus help with shopping, so folks who want to keep their independence have the support to do so, and they organize devotional and offsite activities to keep everyone involved. The place employs between 11 and 50 staff members, including a Director of Nursing for healthcare services and a Human Resources Director who holds SHRM-SCP and an MBA. The average rating people give is 8.6 out of 10, though public reviews aren't listed, and current pricing isn't published, but there's a process for families to get guidance from a local senior living advisor and to compare community options with free consumer services, and they focus on privacy and making sure reviews are authentic. The community only charges a fee to other communities when someone moves in, not before, and they offer different types of care, including nursing home and memory care services, to meet people where they are in life and help those who are vulnerable or struggling.
