Rose Of Sharon Assisted Living

Rose Of Sharon Assisted Living sits in Centennial, Colorado and offers all sorts of care options, so you'll find independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even hospice care under one program, and there's also Medicare-certified home health care for those who need it. The place runs out of several single-story homes with names like Yukon House, Valentia House, Weaver House, Washington House, and Sherman House, and folks have said all the houses keep high standards for cleanliness, but they do have an older style and could use some updates here and there, which is common in older buildings. Residents get to choose either private or semi-private rooms-some are one-bedroom-and the rooms are fully furnished with simple comforts like cable, telephones, Wi-Fi, and linens, though at night after six, everything grows quiet since the residents settle in and caregivers head downstairs, and there's no call system set up for nighttime help. Housekeeping, laundry and linen service, and maintenance are included, so residents and families don't have to worry over daily chores. Meals are served every day, and the kitchen staff pays close attention to dietary needs, like allergies and diabetes, and really tries to keep the food nutritious and tasty, using fresh produce from a house garden whenever possible. The homes stay social and active with movies, walks, gardening, and other activities planned on a regular schedule, which helps everyone stay connected and enjoy life a little more, and the community areas offer space for gathering and special events. Wellness and health programs are available, and residents get help with daily needs-bathing, dressing, medication, and health coordination-with trained staff always nearby, and incontinence care and transfers are available for those who need a little more support. If someone's caregiver needs a break, respite care is an option too. Transportation is arranged for doctor visits, outings, or errands, and you'll see families coming and going because the facility really tries to keep everyone involved and recognizes family-centered values. The facility follows The Platinum Rule, meaning everyone should be treated the way they want-so there's a big emphasis on respect, choice, and dignity, shaped by each person's habits and wishes. The staff, many of whom have stayed for years, are described as caring, consistent, and devoted to companionship, supporting each resident according to personal care plans. The team aims for a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment, and they've managed to keep things COVID-free with an active prevention program, which a lot of families say makes them feel comfortable. The buildings are wheelchair-accessible and safe, with clear walking paths, emergency alert systems, and security features around the property, and parking's right by the homes for easy access. Residents have access to adult day services, non-medical home care, and long-term care if they want to age in place, while the management focuses on understanding each person's needs-the place isn't perfect and the houses have their quirks, but staff do their best every day to help the residents feel welcome, comfortable, and supported, treating them like individuals, and that's been the goal ever since the first house opened in 2003.
