Who is behind Colorado Springs Senior Advisor?
Colorado Springs Senior Advisor is a privately owned referral and guidance service for older adults and families in El Paso and Teller counties; it is not connected to CDPHE, HCPF, the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments or any care provider, and it owns no facilities.
We put the site together the way a careful family would research care for their own father: the text of Colorado's assisted living rules, the 2026 Health First Colorado figures, and CDPHE's inspection record for every licensed residence and nursing home in the region, each with its source. Behind the pages is a person, an advisor who asks what an ordinary day looks like for your parent and then suggests a few licensed places that fit.
How is Colorado Springs Senior Advisor paid, and why should that matter to you?
Communities that work with referral services pay us a fee after a family we introduced moves in; families never pay us anything.
A fee from facilities creates an obvious pull toward the buildings that pay. Our check on that is the full roster: every CDPHE-licensed residence and nursing home in the two counties appears in the directory with the same fields, partner or not. When an advisor suggests a residence, ask why, and expect reasons you can check against CDPHE's record or CMS's numbers.
What does the directory include, and what does it leave out?
It includes every active assisted living residence, nursing facility, home health agency, hospice, home care agency and adult day program on CDPHE's list for the two counties, with beds, license type, inspections, citations and occurrence reports, and CMS ratings for certified nursing homes.
Reviews, marketing claims and home-made scores are left out on purpose. Some facts families want are not public, including a Colorado Springs price median, any memory care median, and which residences run a secure environment; where that is so we say it and explain how to get the information directly.
How do families or facilities reach Colorado Springs Senior Advisor?
