Overview of Assured Senior Living Littleton Meadowbrook Place

Meadowbrook Place has been running as an assisted living and memory care community in Littleton, Colorado, for 22 years. It sits at 2 Meadowbrook Pl, next to Carbone Park, in a neighborhood where a Walk Score of 34 means most residents and visitors will need a car for most trips. AdventHealth Littleton is one mile away.

The care model covers a wider range than most. Alongside assisted living and memory care, the facility runs a Traumatic Brain Injury Supportive Living program, an uncommon specialty in residential senior care. Respite care and nursing services round out the clinical side. Caregivers are present around the clock and assist with mobility, dressing, and personal care. The building is fully wheelchair accessible.

Three home-style meals are prepared fresh each day. Weekly housekeeping and laundry are included. Indoor common spaces and a fenced outdoor area give residents room to move around. Personal care extras, including hair care and manicure and pedicure services, are available, as is transportation.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Colorado Medicaid cover memory care?

Colorado Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 311 memory care communities in Colorado. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
