What incidents has Ridge Pinehurst reported to CDPHE?

Ridge Pinehurst filed 31 occurrence reports with CDPHE between 2023 and 2026, about 19 per 100 licensed beds. Occurrences are incidents a facility must report to the state itself, such as an abuse allegation or a resident going missing; a report is not a finding of fault.

Newest reports, by the category CDPHE assigns:

• Jul 27, 2026: Sexual Abuse
• Jul 22, 2026: Diverted Drugs
• May 17, 2026: Missing Person
• Apr 23, 2026: Missing Person
• Apr 23, 2026: Missing Person

That rate is above the median of 13 per 100 beds among the large metro communities we profile. Residences that serve more people with dementia tend to report more, and prompt reporting is itself required, so ask what the residence learned from recent reports rather than judging the count alone. Each report in CDPHE's tool opens a summary of what happened and what the facility did.

How large is Ridge Pinehurst compared with other assisted living in Lakewood?

Ridge Pinehurst is licensed for 164 beds, more than 97% of the 421 active assisted living residences in the seven-county Denver metro, where the median is 12 beds. It is the No. 2 by size of the 43 CDPHE-licensed ALRs with a Lakewood address.

Jefferson County has 130 active ALRs with 4,080 licensed beds in total. 32 of the 43 in Lakewood are small homes of 16 beds or fewer, usually a converted house with a few caregivers rather than a purpose-built community. Size changes the day-to-day: a large community means more neighbors and programs, while a small home means the same few caregivers every shift.

Does Ridge Pinehurst accept Health First Colorado (Medicaid)?

Not according to CDPHE. Ridge Pinehurst is licensed as an Assisted Living Residence without Alternative Care Facility certification, and the payor source on record is private pay. Families using Health First Colorado's HCBS-EBD waiver need one of the 148 ACF-certified residences in the metro.

Room and board stays the resident's cost even on the waiver. Check Colorado Medicaid eligibility for seniors before you apply.

Does Ridge Pinehurst offer memory care?

CDPHE's public data does not say whether Ridge Pinehurst runs a secure memory-care area, because Colorado licenses memory care under the same ALR license. Ask the residence directly, and if it does, request its written secure-environment disclosure under 6 CCR 1011-1, Chapter 7, Part 25.

Compare residences the registry identifies as memory care in the Denver memory care directory.

How much does assisted living cost near Ridge Pinehurst?

CDPHE does not publish prices, and we do not list a price for Ridge Pinehurst. Across the Denver metro in 2026, assisted living typically runs about $3,200 to $5,800 a month and secured memory care about $4,500 to $7,800, before care-level charges.

Ask for the base rent, the care-level fee schedule, the community fee and the last two years of rate increases in writing. Compare with assisted living costs in Lakewood.

How should you evaluate Ridge Pinehurst before choosing it?

Start with the public record, then visit twice. For Ridge Pinehurst specifically, ask for the statement of deficiencies from its most-cited inspection and the plan of correction, and ask how it supervises residents at risk of wandering or falls.

Time one visit for a meal and another for early evening, when staffing is thinnest. Watch whether residents are engaged or simply waiting, and how quickly call lights are answered. You can also call the Colorado Long-Term Care Ombudsman (303-862-3524) about any residence.

What should you ask on a tour of Ridge Pinehurst?

Bring questions the CDPHE record can't answer: night staffing, how Ridge Pinehurst decides a resident needs more care, and how the monthly fee changes when it does.

• How many caregivers are awake and on the floor overnight, and how does that change on weekends?
• How do you respond to a fall at 2 a.m. — who checks on the resident, and when is family called?
• Which entity holds the CDPHE license, and has ownership or management changed in the last two years?
• What care needs would require a move out of assisted living, and how much notice do you give?
• How do residents raise a concern, and how quickly is it answered?
• How long have the administrator and the director of resident care been in their roles?
• Do you operate a secure environment for dementia, and may I have your written disclosure for it?
