Which questions matter most at The Ivy Colorado Springs?

Let CDPHE's data set the agenda: ask about the 19 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 23, 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.
• Ask which charges rise as care needs rise and what notice comes before a rate change.
