Our read on Continuing Care At Wind Crest
Continuing Care At Wind Crest runs a 44-bed nonprofit home in Highlands Ranch, and its staffing is the headline: 5.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 48.5%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, so continuity of caregivers isn't guaranteed. The inspection record is strong, the most recent look was in August 2024, with seven deficiencies logged, none causing harm or jeopardy and none related to abuse.
