Overview of Renew Saddle Rock Aurora

Renew Saddle Rock Aurora is on the southeast edge of the Denver metro, in Aurora’s Saddle Rock – Bay Hill neighborhood, about 3.2 miles from AdventHealth Parker and 16.8 miles from the city center. The address is 7475 S Shawnee St. It’s a car-dependent area, with a Walk Score of 29, so transportation access matters here. The community offers transportation services on-site.

The facility covers assisted living, independent living, and memory care under one roof, with a minimum age of 55. That three-level range is worth noting: it means residents who enter at an independent living level can move into assisted or memory care on the same campus if their needs shift, rather than having to relocate entirely. For families planning ahead, that continuity has practical value.

The community has been running for 12 years. That’s a meaningful track record, not a brand-new operation, but not a decades-old institution either.

What’s confirmed is the care type range, the location, the operating history, and transportation access; it’s a mid-tenure, multi-level care campus in a car-dependent suburban pocket of southeast Aurora.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Colorado

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Colorado?

Assisted living in Colorado supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Colorado?

Assisted living in Colorado is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Colorado Medicaid cover assisted living?

Colorado Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Colorado) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 455 assisted living facilities in Colorado. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Colorado?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Colorado, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Colorado?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
