The Center at Centennial runs 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and its last health inspection came back in October 2024 with a four-star result. That's real coverage on paper. The catch is consistency: weekends run roughly 12% leaner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 51.6% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing that above-average staffing keep changing. Twenty deficiencies sit on the current record, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related. Solid clinical quality scores and steady survey results, backed by staffing that's above average in volume but thinner on Sundays and always rebuilding.

The Healthcare Resort Of Colorado Springs runs 97 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.80 hours per resident day, roughly 24% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real cushion, though weekends dip about 17% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The harder numbers are on the inspection side: 21 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. A $79,098 fine stands against that, and the last inspection was June 26, 2025. Staff turnover runs 54.3% against a national 45.8%, which means a lot of the people providing that above-average staffing are relatively new. Quality measures score well; the inspection history is what pulls the overall picture down.

Boulder Post Acute runs 162 beds under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.31 hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 59.5% against a 45.8% national figure, which means the people at the bedside keep changing. The current inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse; one fine totaling $9,113 has been assessed, with the last inspection dated February 19, 2026. Resident outcome measures look strong, but inspection findings and retention are the parts worth pressing on when you visit.

Englewood Post Acute runs leaner than the typical American nursing home, 3.13 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, and weekends thin out further, dropping roughly 14% below what the building staffs Monday through Friday. The corporate owner has kept turnover at 32.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection in November 2024 landed a 4-out-of-5 health rating. What that record also carries: 16 deficiencies, three serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse. Quality measures score 4 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5. If your family member needs consistent weekday coverage, the numbers look steadier than the weekend picture does.

Gardens, The runs 45 beds in Colorado Springs under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 5/5 health inspection rating, just three deficiencies on file with none reaching harm or jeopardy level, and a survey as recent as December 2025. The catch is staffing. At 3.04 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 21% under the national average, weekends run roughly 13% lighter than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 56.1% against a national 45.8%. One abuse-related deficiency also appears on the record. Read those two sides together: the care processes look well-managed when inspectors show up, but the people delivering that care turn over fast and thin out on weekends.

Winding Trails Post Acute runs 150 beds in Boulder under for-profit, limited-liability ownership, and its numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.20 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 6% thinner than weekdays, so coverage is lightest when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot at 31% against a national 45.8%, and the quality measure rating is strong. But the inspection record is the counterweight: 69 deficiencies, 12 at harm or jeopardy level, six abuse-related, plus a $90,659 fine, with the most recent inspection in November 2024.

Life Care Center of Stonegate runs 120 beds in Parker under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing math is genuinely better than most: 4.78 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 12% below weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere. Staff turnover sits at 57%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and 19 deficiencies on record include two at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. A single fine of $17,342 has been levied, and the last inspection was October 2024. Strong quality measure scores and low staffing stars don't cancel out a two-star inspection record.

Cedars Healthcare Center in Lakewood runs 130 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.18 hours per resident day, roughly 18% below the national average of 3.86, but the staff who are there tend to stay, with turnover at 26.7% against a national 45.8%. The real concern is the inspection record: 41 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, four abuse-related, and two fines totaling $55,908, with the most recent inspection in March 2024. Strong quality and staffing scores don't cancel out that history. If you're considering this home, ask directly what changed since that March inspection.

Fairacres Manor runs 116 beds in Greeley under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers sit a bit under the national average, 3.71 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, with weekends running about 9% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bright spot: 37.5% versus 45.8% nationally, which suggests people stick around longer here than at the typical home. The inspection record is where you'd want to ask questions. Seventeen deficiencies are on file, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, though the last inspection was recent (June 2024) and CMS gave the health inspection side 4 of 5 stars. Quality measures scored 2 of 5, worth asking the administrator what's driving that.

Heritage Park Care Center runs 90 certified beds in Carbondale under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the part that should give you pause: 30 deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three abuse-related citations, and one fine totaling $25,990. The most recent inspection was August 2024, so that picture is fairly current. Staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover at 43.6% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, but it's still nearly half the nursing staff leaving in a year.

Cottonwood runs a bit lean on nursing hours, 3.67 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday staffing, so a Saturday or Sunday shift may feel thinner than a Tuesday. Turnover sits at 42.1%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record shows nine deficiencies, three of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse. The last state visit was in November 2024, so the record is recent. What you're weighing here is a home with strong quality marks and a recent, mostly clean inspection against thin weekend coverage and a handful of serious findings worth asking about directly.

Staffing at Horizons Care Center runs slightly above the national average at 3.97 hours per resident day, and that earns a four-star staffing rating. But weekends drop about 16% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the care your family member gets on a Saturday may look different from a Tuesday. The 53.7% turnover rate is high, and with 26 deficiencies on record, including two at the harm level and four tied to abuse, the inspection history is the real story here. A nonprofit owns the place, and the last inspection was November 2024.

Harmony Pointe runs lean on nursing hours, 3.12 per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekends drop another 17% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover is the one clear bright spot at 29.2%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people who stay tend to stay. Against that, the inspection record is the concern: 34 deficiencies, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in September 2024. Ownership is corporate for-profit. The quality measures look strong, but those depend on consistent staffing to mean anything. Ask about weekend coverage and how the abuse-related findings were resolved before deciding.

Boulder Canyon Health and Rehabilitation runs 140 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: a clean recent survey in January 2026, 18 deficiencies on file but none that rose to harm or jeopardy, and nothing abuse-related. Staffing is where the numbers get thinner. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits or needs help mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 52.4% tops the national rate of 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year.

Littleton Care And Rehabilitation Center sits at 35 certified beds, run by a for-profit limited liability company. The inspection history is genuinely strong on paper, a five-star health inspection rating and a five-star quality measure rating, with the most recent survey completed in February 2026. But that record carries 10 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $7,781 fine. Staffing tells its own story: 3.56 nurse hours per resident day lands about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage. Fewer aides on Saturday and Sunday matters most when residents need help then.

Hampden Hills runs 3.17 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 18% leaner, with weekends about 7% thinner than weekdays. The trade-off is retention: 22.6% annual turnover looks good next to the 45.8% national figure, so whoever is on the floor tends to stay. The current record carries 42 deficiencies, one abuse-related, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was January 2025, recent enough to trust. Ownership is a for-profit corporation, so margin pressure is a fair thing to keep in mind.

Wheatridge Care Center is a 65-bed for-profit home in Jefferson County, and its numbers pull in different directions. The clinical quality measures look strong, but staffing tells a harder story: 3.34 nurse hours per resident day is about 13% under the national average, weekend coverage drops roughly 7% below its own weekday level, and half the nursing staff turned over in a year, worse than the 45.8% national rate. Inspections back that up, a 2-star health inspection rating, 21 deficiencies on record including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, and $20,616 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was June 12, 2025. A limited liability company owns it. Good quality scores, thin and turnover-heavy staffing, and a rough inspection history.

Life Care Center of Westminster runs about 120 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits essentially at the national average, 3.87 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 13% below what the building staffs on weekdays, and annual turnover of 52.3% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where the real weight sits: 29 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $47,398. The last inspection was May 2025, so that picture is current, not stale. Quality measures score well, but strong chart numbers don't offset harm-level findings or thin weekend coverage.

Lakewood Villa runs 3.10 nurse hours per resident day, about 20 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops roughly 6 percent below its own weekday level. The 21 deficiencies on record include five at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with $40,006 in fines and a December 2024 inspection behind them. The quality measure score comes in at the top of the range, but that number reflects resident health outcomes, not the hands available to deliver care. Staff turnover sits at 46.3 percent, essentially matching the national rate, so continuity isn't unusually bad here, the gap is raw hours per resident. Ask about weekend coverage specifically.

Nurse staffing at The Center At Cordera runs about 4.8 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, but weekends drop about 13 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Annual turnover sits at 68 percent against a national 45.8 percent, most of the people caring for your family member will be new to the building within a year or so. The health inspection record shows 35 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put a resident in harm's way, plus one fine of $8,600. Quality measures score well, but staffing consistency and the inspection history are what pull the overall picture down.
