The place was good on paper: it was fresh, breezy and well-appointed, with a private room with a view. We ignored the sign outside that said: "Help wanted, will train," a red flag for staffing issues. In fact, no one told us about staffing ratios, how frequently they'd check on him, how often he'd get a shower, or whether they'd cut his ragged toenails - and we were in such a panic to find a place that we didn't think to ask. We just felt lucky we'd found Dad a place that seemed nice, near his family. https://www.theguardian.com/society/ng-interactive/2025/may/01/nursing-home-assisted-living-costs-care

My restaurant in Lafayette, CO is also a "dementia friendly" establishment. The team at Juniper Village have brought residents here to dine and I have seen the love and compassion they have for them. It is truly heartwarming. I know that I could count on this amazing group of care-givers should my own family ever need their assistance.

As long as my Mom is content and happy, I am satisfied. I do worry about this industry as a whole, and have seen many things throughout the few places that she has lived and where I toured that concern me. That being said, Juniper Village is her home, and she is safe and comfortable here.

Frasier Meadows is a complex for the aging peoples yo, with all the amenities and niceties…read more So since I know a nurse here quite well, let me give you the skinny: Frasier Meadows is not a nursing home, as many people may think, meaning you don't walk in and immediately wish you hadn't; instead, It is a retirement community, with independent living, assisted living, and a health care center. How it works, usually, is old folks who don't want to (or can't) live on their own any longer move into one of the apartments in independent living, then, as they become older and/or more frail, they can move into assisted living. And from assisted living they can move into the health care center. Independent living consists of three main buildings, Frasier Central, Frasier North, and Frasier South. Each building has four floors and about 100 or so apartments. The people who live there drive cars, have pets, and pretty much do anything you would do in your home, with the exception of having a little extra assistance, such as laundry and activities, if needed. The assisted living building is the former health care center. It is one floor with around 100 rooms. The people who live here are generally more frail, need assistance with meals and laundry; basic every day things that we all do. It is the middle ground in Frasier, people here are not yet totally dependent on others, but not totally independent either. The health care center building sits in the middle, is three years old, and quite possibly the nicest of its type in the state. People who live here are either from independent living, working with rehab, or from assisted living, needing total care, or from the outside community needing rehab. The prices are not cheap. Most people who live here have made some money in their day. Prices range from $1,300 to $3,300 per month in Independent living. There is also an option to buy an apartment for $85,000 for a "deluxe" studio to $550,000 for a two bedroom. Assisted living prices range from $2,700 t0 $7,700 per month. Health care center fees are around $200 a day for a bed in the skilled nursing section. Mind you, all these prices vary based on whether or not you are a member of the community, and to become a member it is a hefty $31,000-$64,000, nonrefundable. Damn! A rich-ass manor, indeed. Now Frasier Meadows itself is a non-profit, church related company that owns two other communities in Colorado. So yeah, definitely not cheap, but as I said before, this is one of the best, if not THE best retirement communities in the state. Frasier also accepts medicare and medicaid insurance, which might help lower the costs somewhat. Still, you get what you pay for, and if you are aging and have some dough this place is pretty sweet: they have tons and tons of different rooms and amenities, such as barber, library, history room, Boulder over-look, etc. If your parents are aging and you have some dough and want them to be will taken care of, this place will definitely do the trick. All of course for about 2x the amount of money I make in a year.

This is a follow up to my previous review. Frasier Meadows continues to block my parents from…read moreAssisted Living, forcing them to use all their allocated days in skilled nursing because they do not have enough AL rooms. I guess a fall causing a broken leg and a stroke (while in independent) is not enough to qualify for Assisted Living. If you go to Frasier, you better hope you die in independent living and never need Assisted Living.

I cannot say enough about Rigden Farm. My Dad was extremely apprehensive about relocating from…read moreSouthern Colorado to Fort Collins. He had been in his home for over 30 years and just couldn't wrap his head around the idea of moving. I called Rigden Farm and spoke to Kathy. She was extremely informative and answered all of my questions. She made me feel so comfortable about scheduling a tour. Kathy explained that she is off on Mondays and that Dad and I would be touring with Kirstyn. Dad and I arrived a little early and Kirstyn was just finishing with someone else. The receptionist was so friendly, showed us to the sitting room and offered a beverage. Kirstyn built a great rapport with Dad, she wasn't afraid to laugh and smile. The community is absolutely beautiful. The 2 bedroom apartment my Dad chose is large, bright, and more than enough space. Dad particularly liked the gym and the ability to walk down the hall for fitness classes. Everyone we've met along this journey has been fantastic. Angie took the time to answer all of Dads question during lease signing. She knew residents by name and shared many smiles. Since moving in Dad seems to be more himself. He is relaxed, eating well, and socializing. I wish he would've moved a few years ago.

Staff consistently went "above and beyond" to provide skilled/compassionate care/support. I always enjoyed eating with Mom and her friends in the dining room, as the food was great, schedule was flexible, and the atmosphere never felt institutional. Entertainment/recreational opportunities were always varied and fun. I especially appreciated the in-house (but separately-contracted) physical/occupational therapy and home health aide services. I am a RN so I saw, personally and professionally, how well this place operates. I hope I can find a home as wonderful as this when I am older!
