Can Medallion Villas care for a resident with dementia?

CDPHE's public data does not flag secure environments, so the record cannot tell you whether Medallion Villas has one; ask for the Part 25.4 disclosure, which any Colorado ALR that restricts residents' exit must provide before move-in.

If it does, Colorado requires at least one trained, awake staff member in the secure area at all times, six hours of dementia training for each staff member within 60 days, and a secured outdoor space with a six-foot barrier. Larger residences nearby that families often ask about for memory care: The Bridge Assisted Lvg at Life Care Ctr of Co Springs (0.8 mi, 65 beds), The Retreat at Sunny Vista (0.9 mi, 75 beds), Brookdale Monument Valley Park (1.7 mi, 75 beds).

What does Medallion Villas's record suggest asking on a tour?

Begin with what the state's record raises: ask about the 27 citations on CDPHE's record and the plan of correction for the most recent visit.

• Ask what happened in the most recent occurrence report (August 12, 2026) and what the residence changed afterward.
• Ask for a sample week of staff schedules and count who is awake overnight; Colorado sets no ratio, so the schedule is the evidence.
• Ask whether the residence operates a secure environment and, if so, for its written Part 25.4 disclosure.
• Take the resident agreement home and check the care-level charges, rate-increase notice and the 30-day discharge clause.
• Ask how many Medicaid (EBD waiver) residents the residence has now and whether a waiting list exists for those beds.
