No one likes to leave their home or upend their routines by changing environments, but short-term stays in assisted living, memory care, and nursing homes can be beneficial.
Short-term stays can be used for:
- transitioning – from your own home to an assisted living facility or memory care facility
- transitioning – from the hospital back to your own home, independent living, assisted living, or memory care
- recovery – from accidents, injuries, illnesses, or surgery
- emergency stop-gap – providing safe care while a more permanent living arrangement is found
- respite care – for primary caregivers who need a break, are going on vacation, or become ill themselves and can’t provide care
Short-term stays are available throughout the Denver metro area at:
- assisted living facilities
- residential care facilities
- memory care facilities
- skilled nursing facilities (nursing homes)
