Overview of Hover Senior Living Community
Hover Senior Living Community, a Longmont, CO staple for over four decades, offers a continuum of care for aging adults. At Hover, their mission is to empower residents to live life on their own terms through innovative, affordable housing and services. Hover provides independent living at Hover Manor, assisted living at Beatrice Hover Assisted Living, and skilled nursing care at the Katherine and Charles Hover Green House, a state-of-the-art facility built in March of 2019.

Their experienced staff provides a variety of services to help seniors maintain their independence for as long as possible. At Hover Senior Living, a true sense of community is built between residents and staff. The team can be reached at (303) 772-9292.
Quality ratings
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
