The Gardens at St. Elizabeth

The Gardens at St. Elizabeth was an excellent community, and I liked it a lot. They had nurses. They had a bus to take you around to different places. They had many activities. I thought it was much larger than some places. They had all levels because my husband and I actually lived there for one year. They had a very kind staff and very outgoing. Many of them had worked there for several years. The food was excellent. They had a restaurant type dining room, and they had a variety of food, which was really excellent.

We looked at a lot of them. My mother is a retired professional woman that travelled around the world and has a Catholic influence. The Gardens at St. Elizabeth has just really worked for us. It is a beautiful facility with a chapel and has independent living. They have a huge tower which oversees a panoramic view of the mountain of Colorado -- a view by the city -- and also a panoramic view of the skylight. There is assisted living piece and dementia care. The majority of the staff is fairly helpful. The activities director is outstanding and inspiring. He always encourages people to be part of everything and to get out of their rooms. Some could be a little more supportive in helping with the actual hygiene and care of the residents. The food is definitely above average. They offer a choice in each and every day. For all of the meals, there is always a blue plate special and an additional choice. If you go to the main dining room, there is always an a la carte meal that you could choose from.

My mom has moved into the Gardens of St. Elizabeth in May. It's an older place, the food is very good, they have lots of activities, and mom has gone twice to Central City with the group, so she very much enjoyed it. The staff does a very good job.

The Gardens of St. Elizabeth is run by nuns. My dad is born and raised Catholic. I really like the place. They're doing a great job for my dad. The staff is awesome. They treat him like a king and they take care of his meds. They have activities every day for him, but he does not have to do any if he does not want to. They also have a separate place where they do other types of activities that my dad is also involved in.

This is such a homey place. Lots of overstuffed chairs and interaction with staff that is both organized and just happens in a daily living situation. There are planned excursions. activities and parties open to all. All of the staff remember residents names and takes the time to talk to and greet them. The Gardens offers Day Care, Assisted lviing, Full Care, and respite apartments. There is a Centura health medical clinic on premises and available to clients. For those who are Catholic, there is a daily mass in the chapel. The dining room offers meals off of a menu rather than a set meal plan or a set time for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Financial arrangements are reasonable and staff will work to assist you in the best option for you and your loved one. The Gardens address the Medical, Social, and Emotional needs of its residents. I cannot stress enough the warm loving atmosphere at the Gardens of St. Elizabeth.

I am currently visiting a friend/client in the assisted living side of the Gardens of St. Elizabeth in Denver, Colorado. I am there 2 days a week for a total of 5 hours a week. The resident has lived there for 4 months and was attending the day club program for a few months before that. Janel runs the day club for the seniors and is an awesome lady. She interacts well with the residents and families and friends. She goes above and beyond the call of duty. My friend adjusted well to the move. She was not excited at first to leave her home but quickly grew to love it with the help of the staff and the other residents. I have not met one resident that is not happy there. When an issue comes up that needs to be addressed the staff is quick to address it and do all they can to fix it. They are very good at letting us know what the residents needs are and if they are in need of any items. They are also very good at informing the family and I of any issues of falls or illness of the resident. I am very appreciative of the staffs friendliness and welcoming spirit. I would feel totaly comfortable having my family members residing at the Gardens.

The facility is well staffed and very clean. The tenants have their own personal belonging around them and the halls are hung with picture/chairs/tables with puzzels,chess opr checkers,etc just like they would see in their own home. Activities are provided to keep them as active as possible. If the person cannot or does not want to eat what is served for a meal, they provide another meal that is eaten.
