Colorado Springs Senior AdvisorWhat is in the Pikes Peak senior care directory?
Every active CDPHE license for assisted living residences, nursing facilities, home health agencies, hospices, home care agencies and adult day programs in El Paso and Teller counties, 292 in all, with CMS Care Compare ratings for the 21 certified nursing homes we matched.
| County | Senior ALRs | Medicaid ACFs | Nursing homes | Home health | Hospice | Home care | Adult day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| El Paso County | 68 | 32 | 20 | 49 | 15 | 122 | 8 |
| Teller County | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 |
Where does the directory's data come from?
Only official bulk data: CDPHE's Health Facilities feature service (updated September 29, 2026), each ALR's and nursing home's CDPHE Find and Compare inspection record, and CMS's Provider Information dataset for nursing home ratings, inspections, staffing and fines; no aggregator listings, operator marketing or reviews.
Every listing page carries a source line with the data date. Every senior ALR and every CMS-certified nursing home has its own page; agencies and adult day programs appear as roster rows.
How do the listing pages work?
Each listing has a search box and filters for county, city and license type (plus CMS rating for nursing homes), and every column sorts with a click on its heading, so you can, for example, list every Medicaid-certified ACF by citations.
Why does the directory show inspections for assisted living when other states' directories do not?
Because Colorado publishes them: CDPHE's Find and Compare tool lists each residence's inspections, citations and occurrence reports for roughly three years, so every senior ALR page here shows that record instead of a blank.
Across the 69 senior ALRs, the record shows a median of 8 inspections and 13 citations per residence in that window, with 0 showing no inspection at all. The state does not publish which residences have a secure environment, fines or license expiration dates, so those are questions to ask each residence.
