Charleston Assisted Living in Erie, Colorado, offers both assisted living and residential care home services, and is prepared to support residents with mild dementia conditions. A nurse is on call 24 hours a day, giving the community the capacity to handle routine health monitoring and unexpected health concerns without delay.
Additional care features include on-site podiatry visits for routine foot health, background-checked staff who remain awake through the night shift, and a fenced rear area that helps maintain resident safety. The community responds to personal emergency response system alerts, and care teams provide some physical assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer support is available for residents who use walkers or wheelchairs, need standby supervision, or require a one-person lift.
