New Dawn Memory Care Colorado Springs - CLOSED

New Dawn Memory Care Colorado Springs was a senior care center focused on serving people with Alzheimer's, dementia, and related conditions, and the place offered specialized memory care with all-day supervision and safety features like 24-hour staff and an emergency call system. People living there could get help with personal care, medication management, bathing, dressing, transferring, and support for mild cognitive impairment, and families found comfort in the fact that nurses were on-site for health concerns. There were independent living and assisted living options too, with staff helping residents maintain their independence while still providing daily assistance as needed, like housekeeping, laundry, and meal preparation, and the facility was licensed according to state guidelines with safety inspections and the right staff-to-resident ratios. Residents could choose between shared rooms or private suites, all with fully furnished spaces, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and features for safety and accessibility like wheelchair access and wall-to-wall carpeting. They enjoyed having cable television, internet, and telephone access along with utility costs included, so there wasn't much to stress about housework or bills. Meals used organic foods and ingredients with many choices such as vegetarian, kosher, or diabetic-friendly options, allergy-sensitive meals, healthy snacks, and restaurant-style dining in the main dining room, and kitchen access meant some residents could still prepare their own snacks. Activities at New Dawn included daily exercise, arts and crafts, yoga, education programs, garden walks, movie nights, and community or resident-run clubs, and pets were allowed with small animals, pet visitations, and pet services. The place had extra amenities like a pool, salon, sun room, outdoor walking paths, and a library, and people liked having maintenance-free living so things got fixed quickly if there was a problem. Transportation services were available, helping residents get to doctor appointments and run errands, and there were guest services plus family outreach and education for staying connected. The staff included Mr. Tomas Arebalo as director of community relations and Ms. Nancy Britton as executive director, and though the facility wasn't accredited by the BBB, it was known for being a secure memory care community providing dementia care, respite, hospice, and nursing home services, along with proper supervision for those needing extra help. New Dawn Memory Care Colorado Springs is now closed.
