Overview of Sierra Post Acute

Sierra Post Acute is a 102-bed nursing home owned by Jarom Eberhard on Depew Street in Lakewood, Colorado. The building stays mostly full with an 88 percent occupancy rate, and residents stay for an average of 359 days. This long length of stay indicates that the daily routine centers heavily on permanent residential care, though the team also handles temporary rehab. For billing, the office works with standard private pay, traditional Medicare, and state Medicaid.

The surrounding area scores an 85 out of 100 for walkability, so visitors can easily handle quick errands on foot. On the floor, the staff provides about 4 hours and 18 minutes of direct care to each resident every day. This round-the-clock team uses an on-site therapy gym and outdoor courtyards to provide short-term physical therapy, complex wound care, and hospice services.

Past inspection reports and complaint filings showed repeat problems with care planning, resident supervision, and general building safety and maintenance. Individuals who want to know how the administration fixed these safety issues can contact the intake desk to go over the correction records, ask about open rooms, or book a time to come look around.

vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
32m
−36% State avg: 50m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
48m
+17% State avg: 41m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
