Elk Run Assisted Living sits in Evergreen, Colorado, at 31383 Frost Way, looking out at beautiful mountain views, and is managed by Augustana Care, with membership in the Colorado Health Care Association, District I. The building has two stories and offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments ranging from 243 to 510 square feet, each with emergency call systems and plenty of bright, natural light, making the place feel homelike while keeping residents safe. Residents can bring their pets to this pet-friendly community, so nobody has to leave behind a beloved animal friend. Staff is on hand twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and provides both personal care and professional services, with registered nurses available on call in case a resident needs medical help, along with wellness checks and help for incontinence, though some of these bring extra charges. The community focuses on assisted living, respite care, hospice care for seniors needing comfort in their last stages, and specialized memory care for people living with Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or other memory loss, aiming to keep them safe and supported at every stage, and as residents' needs change over time, Elk Run provides progressive levels of support in the same community, so there's no need for a difficult move to a new place.
Faith-based values shape daily life at Elk Run Assisted Living, and spiritual care services support residents' faith and mental well-being, while the management group tries to nurture a sense of connection and purpose every day. The community offers housekeeping and laundry, regular transportation for residents, and plenty of amenities for comfort, like lounges and a salon, along with walking paths for those who like to get outside and enjoy the mountain air. There are exercise classes, outings for shopping and entertainment, and a full calendar with clubs, classes, and group events to help people make friends, stay busy, and feel vibrant. Dining services provide prepared meals daily. For families or caregivers needing a break, Elk Run offers respite services for short stays. There's help with activities of daily living, like bathing and getting dressed, and assistance is tailored to each person's needs, with care plans always ready to adjust when health needs shift, supporting both independent and assisted living in the same place. The community's memory care area is designed for safety and calm, with open rooms that allow for exploring and tours for new residents. Elk Run's mission is to be a comfortable, caring place for seniors, with services focused on wellness, independence, and living life with dignity.
