Harmony Pointe Nursing Center sits at 1655 Yarrow St in Lakewood, Colorado, and the place looks really nice from the outside, but most people notice right away that the staff greet you with a friendly attitude, and you'll see happy faces from both residents and workers, plus there's a caring team from Vivage Senior Living who look after everyone, checking on people in well-equipped living areas and helping with whatever they might need. The center's a top-rated 5-Star Facility every year since the CMS program started, and people say that's no small thing, since it means they've received high marks from the federal agencies. Inside, you'll find nursing home services, skilled nursing, long-term care, and respite care too, especially for folks who might need a short break or some help after leaving the hospital, and there's even hospice and comfort care aimed at those who want support with pain, symptoms, or end-of-life wishes.
The place offers full psychiatric and behavioral health care, with medication support and therapy, plus there's a certified addiction recovery unit with group sessions for people who want to work on that sort of thing, and they also provide specialized dementia care for Alzheimer's and other memory conditions, so there are secure areas, staff trained for that, as well as activities like mental exercises, creative and physical programs, and life skills work, along with a Virtual Dementia Tour® that helps care partners understand what residents are experiencing. Nurses and doctors offer skilled care, with things such as diabetes and chronic disease management, pain and wound care, intravenous therapy, on-site physician visits, and they have telemedicine, orthopedic and neurological treatments, therapy for respiratory issues, plus an on-site pharmacy which makes medication management much easier. Folks who need rehabilitation find physical, occupational, and speech therapy all in one spot, plus there's also advanced wound care and peritoneal dialysis right within the building, and the clinic offers therapy along with medical care.
They put a real effort into wellness, with a center for health and fitness, and meals cooked from fresh ingredients served in separate dining halls, and diets are specialized for each resident. Activities fill up the days with art classes, crafts, cards, music therapy, and group excursions, so there's something to do, and spiritual services are there for those who want them, while the community makes sure amenities fit each person's needs. Harmony Pointe isn't taking new patients at this time, and staff communicate mostly in English though some speak other languages too; you can check their staff directory online, which stays updated each month. With its focus on person-centered care, behavioral health services, and recovery-based therapy plus a specialized dementia care wing, Harmony Pointe Nursing Center stands out for skilled nursing and rehabilitation in a supportive, safe spot where people can heal, live, and enjoy their days as best they can.
