Personal
Care Boarding Homes and
Assisted Living Units
Licensed as Personal Care Boarding Homes, residents in assisted living must
normally be ambulatory. Boarding homes offer private or semi private living quarters
complemented by a variety of services that include meals, monitoring of medications,
transportation and recreational activities. Some may provide help with bathing and
dressing on a daily basis. These services may be available for an extra charge.
Individuals not able to pay for services may be eligible for financial assistance from
Medicaid. To receive assistance from Medicaid, individuals must be eligible for Home and
Community Based Services. They must meet financial as well as functional qualifications.
Assisted Living Units and Personal Care Boarding Homes are licensed by the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment unless they are currently under construction
or licensed as continuing care retirement facilities.
