Bonaventure of Pueblo offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can move between service levels without leaving the community. Assisted Living supports daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication prompts, Independent Living provides a maintenance-free lifestyle with optional assistance, and Memory Care delivers structured support for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia.

The secured community is designed for safety while still encouraging as much independence as possible. Dedicated diabetes management, consultation with a speech therapist, and regular visits from occupational, physical, and podiatry specialists are part of the on-site clinical program. Staff members provide incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, medication management, and focused memory care interventions as needed.

Apartments are available in multiple floor plans and may include kitchenettes, balconies or patios, wheelchair-accessible showers, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and direct access to outdoor areas such as a deck, butterfly garden, or central courtyard. Some residences overlook the piano and fireplace lounge, while others are closer to parking for easy vehicle access. The community is pet-friendly, but individual units vary, and not every accommodation has every listed feature or view.

Dining emphasizes choice and dietary oversight. Residents can expect three daily meals prepared by a professional chef, with an all-day dining option for flexible scheduling. Menus can be adjusted to meet kosher, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, organic, low-sodium, or no-sugar preferences, and guest meals are available for visiting family members. Restaurant-style service is standard to simplify nutritional monitoring.

A broad activities program includes an activity center, library and computer lounge, clubs, indoor and outdoor walking paths, raised garden beds, yoga and chair yoga classes, fitness programs, Montessori and reminiscence sessions, sensory-based programs, karaoke, happy hours, birthday parties, dances, social outings, live music performances, woodworking in a dedicated shop, and access to a swimming pool.
