Lakewood Reserve Assisted Living & Memory Care sits in the Belmar neighborhood of Lakewood, Colorado, and offers a comfortable place for seniors who want to stay independent with some help when they need it, so you'll find options for assisted living, memory care, and even some independent living, all under one roof, with rooms ranging from studios to deluxe two-bedroom suites and several unique layouts, most with either kitchenettes or full-sized appliances, and big windows with views of the mountains if you catch the right angle. The staff-including a dedicated 12-16 hour nursing team and responsive administrative workers-care for residents' needs around the clock, and support comes in the form of help with daily living like bathing, dressing, and medication management, with care plans that the team changes to fit each person over time.
Memory care residents have their own small and secure neighborhood, designed for those living with Alzheimer's Disease and other forms of dementia-they get extra safety features, a steady routine, and programs targeted for memory support, and the environment feels calm and welcoming, so people with memory loss can thrive safely thanks to the specialized staff and a secure design. Everyone gets access to outdoor gardens and walking paths, sunrooms for relaxing, and both indoor and outdoor common areas where neighbors can gather or just enjoy some quiet. Residents join over 40 activities each week-things like movie nights, craft projects, resident-led gatherings, and out-trips into the local community-which keeps folks active and lets friendships grow, plus there are onsite and offsite spiritual services, with a reflection room for quiet time.
Amenities are pretty plentiful-a theater for entertainment, bistro and dining rooms serving three meals a day, a salon with a beautician onsite, craft and game rooms, and a full calendar kept lively by a concierge. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen services come standard, so residents have fewer chores to worry about, and those who need transportation to medical offices or local shops have regular shuttle service. Pets are allowed, so animal companions are welcome, and accessibility features like walk-in showers with seats and individually controlled heating and air-conditioning make life easier for folks who might have a harder time getting around, while the grounds let people enjoy both quiet garden corners and views of the mountains. The building itself is two stories, recently updated, and has easy-to-navigate common areas, and there's even a friendly attitude about people with different hobbies-there's plenty of space for visiting family, games, group gatherings, or a bit of privacy as needed.
