Maplewood Homes sits at 150 N Nevada St in Walsh, Colorado, and serves seniors who may need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, and you'll find that it's a medium-sized place with 20 assisted living beds and also has a 30-bed nursing home facility through its Walsh Hospital District connection, so people around here often like that it offers a range of care types including assisted living, independent living, memory care, respite care, and even non-medical home care, though they do focus mainly on long-term, non-acute care for those who can't safely live alone anymore. The staff gets described as gentle, helpful, joyful, and professional, and you'll find nurses and caregivers available all day and night, with a Registered Nurse handling medication prep and a Restorative Care Nurse Assistant available Monday through Friday, plus physical, occupational, and speech therapy offered on site, and residents can even see a Podiatrist or Dental Consultant here when needed.
The rooms come in studio and large apartment-sized layouts for singles or married couples and include kitchenettes, bay windows, private bathrooms with sit-down showers, and a nurse call system in every room, so you get a bit of comfort and privacy, and you also get utilities, Direct TV (you'll need your own Roku or Smart TV if you want that), and internet access through something called Never 2 Late Computer, but if you want a phone line installed, you'll pay for that yourself. They have lots of common areas like a big dining room with cooking facilities, several social rooms, a beauty shop, a billiard room, a large activities room with an aviary and big screen TV, a congregate living room with a fireplace, and a Sensory Garden that has flowers, a pond, veggies, herbs, swings, and places to walk.
Three nutritious meals are served daily under a Registered Dietitian's supervision and snacks get handed out during the day, with open dining times so people can eat when they like, and laundry plus housekeeping is done weekly, which helps keep things tidy. You'll also find programs for Bible Study and church each week and a Certified Activities Director leads activities aimed at helping residents stay physically, mentally, and emotionally active, and on nice days, residents can go out on golf cart rides. Maplewood Homes offers pharmacy consulting, weekly beauty shop visits, and 24/7 ambulance services if there's an emergency, not to mention a Social Services Director who encourages family and community connections, plus a Medical Clinic that runs weekdays. For peace of mind, the building is handicap accessible and has a full fire sprinkler system for safety.
The facility allows Medicaid, private insurance, and private pay for rooms and board, but unless Medicare has specifically certified it, Medicare payment isn't accepted, and for those who are only staying a short while, respite care gives caregivers a break. Reviews from current residents are rare, and it's important to note one listed rating is low, but people can check reviews before making decisions. Anyone wanting to know more about what's provided here can read community brochures or talk to local senior living advisors, and the local neighborhood offers parks, health services, and basic community info like weather and crime rates. Overall, Maplewood Homes tries to bring personal support and care in a place where seniors can still feel independent while getting a helping hand when they need it.
