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.
Assured Senior Living Littleton Meadowbrook Place is a small, long-running community with a specific clinical niche. The Traumatic Brain Injury Supportive Living program sets it apart from most assisted living options in the area, and the combination of memory care and brain injury support under one roof reflects a care model built for residents with more complex needs than standard assisted living typically addresses.
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 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.

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.
