Overview of Avamere at Cheyenne

Avamere at Cheyenne offers assisted living and independent living in Las Vegas, NV. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private apartment, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. With both care levels available, the community may be a good fit for a resident whose needs could grow over time and who may be able to move between care levels without leaving the community.

Avamere at Cheyenne is in the Twin Lakes neighborhood and has a Walk Score of 50 out of 100, making the area somewhat walkable; some errands can be completed on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to handle certain nearby errands independently. Pets are allowed, which means a resident may be able to bring a pet when moving in. Robert Sanderson serves as the administrator.
