Owned by North Shore Manor, North Shore Health & Rehab Facility is a nursing home in Loveland, Colorado. Its location at West 29th Street is in a highly walkable neighborhood with a Walk Score of 88, making it easy for families and visitors to navigate the surrounding area while walking.
The 120-bed home specializes in rehabilitation and short-term post-acute care, with dedicated physical therapy services on-site. The care team includes registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses providing roughly 4 hours and 20 minutes of combined care per resident each day. This level of hands-on support helps residents recover from surgery, hospitalization, or illness.
Residents are served with comforts and connection. An on-site chef prepares nutritious meals, with housekeeping and laundry services to support residents’ comfort. Amenities include a salon for hair and nail care, a chapel for residents who want to observe their faith, and transportation services for appointments and outings. There are also complimentary WiFi and landscaped gardens for residents who want to stay connected or spend quiet time outdoors.
State inspections reviewed clinical care and facility standards, with particular attention to infection control practices, pain management, and sanitation. Staffing responsiveness to resident needs and prompt care were also reviewed. These are ongoing areas of focus for the home, just like in other skilled nursing facilities.
Set in a highly walkable neighborhood where most errands can be done on foot, Chateau Des Mons Care and Assisted Living is a 48-bed residential community in Englewood, Colorado. It sits on Marion Street close to retail and services, making it convenient for occupants and visiting family. At $4,740 monthly, it offers a straightforward approach to supported living with a practical care focus.
Chateau Des Mons Care and Assisted Living is built around nursing and rehabilitation services, with 24-hour staffing and an LPN available 24/7. That structure means residents get daily help with personal care, medications, and activities of daily living in a smaller setting where attention is personal, not institutional. The home offers specialized diabetes care and arranges transportation to medical appointments, decreasing friction for residents needing regular outside services.
