My mother has been in Brookdale Fort Collins for three weeks now. So far, it's been great. They're very sweet and friendly people. My mom's apartment is nice and clean, and she likes it. Communication has been great. I don't have any complaints at all. I haven't really been able to spend time there because of Covid. My mom really likes the food.

Brookdale Fort Collins was really nice. The residents seemed very comfortable there, out and about, and in and around. Everybody seemed generally happy, and the staff was very helpful. The rooms were nice, and most rooms had a little kitchenette. They had a lot of activity rooms, a sunroom where you can go out and sit without being outside, game rooms, and music room, and it's all open. It's encouraging because it's not closed off, and there were no doors in any of the activity rooms. You can just go in and participate if you want to. The dining room was beautiful. The facility was big and spread out over a bigger area and there were many hallways, and it's too big for my mom because she can't get around that well.

Sugar Valley Estates is a wonderful place. I have no doubts about the care and the quality of life that my mom and all the other residents have. They're all very happy and very engaged. She loves it and would never go back to living on her own ever again. They have sing-alongs, trivia, bingo, and a knitting club. There are quite a bit of activities for people and sometimes you see the residents sitting and relaxing in the atrium and conversing with one another. There's always something happening and those who work there are very attentive. Her room is a pretty standard one-bedroom, one-bath, with a living room, balcony, and a small kitchenette, and her view faces the mountains, so it's perfect. It's very sunny, very open, and very airy. The food is excellent, but sometimes it's not very flavorful, which they have to do for the residents.

Brookdale Fort Collins was bright and had a lot of activities going on. The staff seemed to be caring and engaged with the residents. There seem to be ample room. One of the things that my wife would be interested in is they had a garden area and work benches set up. People could use small tools to keep themselves busy. They also had group activities and exercises.

I didn't like Collinwood Assisted Living and Memory Care. It was dark and seemed depressing to me. The food smelled good, though, and they had activities like gardening, exercise, typical things people can do. The pricing is fairly typical and not anything out of the ordinary than the other folks charge. It's very comparable to what I saw. The lady who gave me the tour was nice, had lots of information, and knew the answers to the questions I had.

My dad moved into Brookdale Fort Collins, and I think hes very happy there. The staff is very good, and the food seems to be pretty satisfactory for him. They do some activities and pass the ball quite a bit. They communicate with them well, and do outings in the courtyard once in a while if its nice outside. The atmosphere was positive, and theyre keeping everybody active and busy.

Collinwood (Collinwood Assisted Living and Memory Care) was wonderful and very nice. It felt like home. The person who helped me was wonderful, very exceptional, and helpful. They had a library and a lounge where you could watch television.

The patio homes at MacKenzie Place Fort Collins were way overpriced, we're also impressed with what they call The Big House. We liked the people in there and the people running the community. We liked the size of the apartments, and the dining room was killer. It's conveniently located to restaurants, shopping, and our family. They had a full calendar of activities, and we saw people getting on a bus to take the residents fishing, bowling, and so on. Based on our tour of the whole place, their facilities were fine although the pool was a little small. If you need a hairdresser, they had that, plus a small store in the building and a very nice theater. I think it's a good community in a nice neighborhood and the hotel where we're staying is half a block away.

MacKenzie Place was in line with what we are expecting. You do not have to be in assisted living to start living there, and you can move into assisted living, and stay in the same apartment. That was one thing that struck me. You do need to get our meals in the facility, and they offer three meals a day. They have game rooms, they offer tours to get out, and there are things like cards to get you to be socially active with other people.

Care Cost Comparison
At $8,197 per month, the average cost of a semiprivate room in a nursing home in Larimer County is more than double the cost of assisted living. Although both services include room and board, nursing home facilities also provide skilled nursing care to residents who have complex medical needs. In-home care from a homemaker or home health aide costs close $1,000 more than assisted living. Seniors who are weighing their care options should also consider that in-home care costs are in addition to regular day-to-day living expenses, which can make the total monthly cost significantly more than assisted living.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Larimer County
Medicaid in Colorado
Health First Colorado is the state Medicaid program that provides low-income individuals with free health care coverage for various services, including inpatient and outpatient hospital care, doctor visits, X-rays and lab tests and nursing home care.
To qualify for long-term Health First Colorado coverage with access to home and community-based waiver services, seniors must earn no more than $2,313 per month and own no more than $2,000 worth of countable assets. Couples applying together can earn up to $4,626 per month and own up to $3,000 in joint assets.
Applicants must also be U.S. citizens or hold a qualifying immigration status; have a valid Social Security number; live in Colorado full time; and require the level of care normally offered in a nursing home.
Elderly, Blind and Disabled Waiver
Seniors aged 65 and older who have a permanent functional impairment or are blind and require a nursing home level of care may be eligible for enrollment in the Elderly, Blind and Disabled waiver.
This home and community-based Medicaid waiver funds enhanced services that allow frail seniors to remain in a noninstitutional setting, such as assisted living.
To qualify, seniors must meet the financial criteria for Health First Colorado coverage and be able to safely live in the community with the supports available through the EBD waiver. These supports and services are assigned based on medical need and may include:
- Adult day health care
- In-home personal care
- Medication reminders
- A medical alert system
- Nonmedical transportation
- Respite care
- Placement in an alternative care facility (participants pay the room and board portion of monthly care costs)
For more information on Health First Colorado and the Elderly, Blind and Disabled waiver, contact the Larimer County Department of Human Services at (970) 498-6300.
Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living
Colorado Old Age Pension
Seniors aged 60 and older may qualify for the state-sponsored Old Age Pension, a financial assistance program designed to provide a basic minimum income to those who have few resources and little to no income.
To qualify, seniors must have an income at or below the federal Supplemental Security Income rate and own no more than $2,000 worth of countable assets. Seniors must also apply for SSI if they’re eligible, and monthly OAP benefits are based on the applicant’s current income.
For more information, contact Larimer County Human Services at (970) 498-7750 or complete an online application through Colorado PEAK.
Elderlife Financial Senior Living Bridge Loan
Seniors who have a good credit score and require access to cash to finance a move into assisted living may be eligible for an assisted living bridge loan from Elderlife Financial.
This 12-month loan is designed for seniors who are selling their home, liquidating investments or waiting for benefits to begin to raise funds for their care.
The bridge loan is set up as a line of credit, therefore, borrowers only need to pay interest on the portion of the loan they actually use. Money can be sent directly from the lender to the assisted living community, and the loan can be paid off at any time without penalty.
Applications can be processed over the phone or online, and up to six people can be listed on the loan to disperse assisted living costs among family members.
For more information, contact Elderlife Financial at (888) 228-4500.

The Fort Collins senior center is open daily to seniors aged 50 or older. Programs include fitness classes, art lessons, drop-in card games and group trips to local attractions. The center is equipped with a swimming pool, library, kitchen, walking track and billiards room.
