Frequently Asked Questions

Finding the right assisted living home for someone you love can bring up many questions. Lighthouse Assisted Living is here to help families understand their options with patience, honesty, and care.


Every situation is different. We invite you to call 720-344-7217 or schedule a tour to talk through your loved one's needs.

  • How do I know if assisted living may be the right next step?

    It may be time to explore assisted living when daily routines, safety, personal care, medication management, meals, or meaningful connection are becoming harder to manage at home. Every situation is different. A conversation with our team can help you think through your loved one's needs and whether Lighthouse may be a good fit.

  • What makes Lighthouse Assisted Living different?

    Lighthouse is family-owned and operated, with seven small, home-like assisted living homes in the South Denver metro area. We focus on getting to know each resident as a person, their routines, preferences, history, and what helps them feel comfortable. Our approach is guided by dignity, safety, connection, and personalized support. Staff are trained in the Eden Alternative®, an approach that recognizes aging as a continued stage of growth and purpose.

  • Where are Lighthouse homes located?

    Lighthouse has homes in Centennial, Englewood, and Littleton, Colorado. Each home offers a residential setting and a supportive daily environment for residents and their families.

  • What kinds of support are available?

    Support is personalized to each resident's needs and may include help with bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, medication administration, laundry, housekeeping, meals, and daily routines. Lighthouse also offers nursing assessments and individualized care plans.

  • Do you support residents living with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease?

    Yes. Lighthouse offers memory therapy and specialized support for people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. We approach memory changes with patience, respect, and an understanding that every person's experience is different.

  • Can Lighthouse support someone with Parkinson’s disease or changing care needs?

    Lighthouse provides support for residents living with Parkinson’s disease, dementia, and other changing care needs. Before admission, our team will review the individual's situation to help determine whether a particular home can provide appropriate support.

  • What if my loved one uses a wheelchair or needs help with mobility?

    Lighthouse has wheelchair-accessible homes. We encourage families to contact us so we can learn about the person's mobility needs, daily routines, and preferred level of support.

  • What happens if my loved one’s needs change over time?

    Care needs can change gradually or unexpectedly. Lighthouse works with residents, families, and appropriate care partners to review changing needs and update care plans. When appropriate, coordinated medical and hospice support can help a resident remain in a familiar home-like setting.

  • How does hospice support work at Lighthouse?

    When hospice care becomes appropriate, Lighthouse can coordinate with the resident's hospice provider and care team. Our goal is to help residents remain comfortable, respected, and surrounded by familiar people and routines whenever possible.

  • Do you offer respite care or day care?

    Lighthouse offers respite care and day care options. Availability and fit can vary, so please call us to discuss your family's needs and current options.

  • What is included in the monthly rate?

    Lighthouse offers all-inclusive pricing. Because each resident's needs are unique, we encourage you to call us to discuss what is included and what options may fit your family best.

  • Can you help us understand payment options?

    We understand that cost is an important part of the decision. Our team can talk with you about Lighthouse's current options and help you identify questions to ask as you plan for care.

  • How do we get started?

    The best first step is a conversation. Call Lighthouse Assisted Living at 720-344-7217 or schedule a tour to learn more about our homes, ask questions, and talk through your loved one's needs. We are here to help your family make a thoughtful, informed decision.
