What does Woodland Estates Senior Living's CDPHE inspection record show?

CDPHE's record for Woodland Estates Senior Living shows 19 inspections and 32 citations between 2023 and 2026. The most recent re-licensure inspection listed is dated Aug 18, 2026. Most of the visits were complaint inspections and revisits, which CDPHE makes after a complaint is filed and again to confirm fixes.

Recent inspections, newest first:

• Oct 2, 2026: Revisit: Licensure Complaint (inspection VXCU12)
• Aug 18, 2026: Licensure (Re-licensure) (inspection B1F111)
• Jul 9, 2026: Licensure Complaint (inspection VXCU11)
• May 27, 2026: Revisit: Licensure Complaint (inspection 6C4G12)
• May 27, 2026: Licensure Complaint (inspection R3HC11)
• Apr 23, 2026: Revisit: Licensure Complaint (inspection RKS012)
• Feb 11, 2026: Licensure Complaint (inspection RKS011)
• Jan 27, 2026: Licensure Complaint (inspection 6C4G11)

The list includes a change of ownership (CHOW) inspection. When a building changes hands, ask what changed in staffing, pricing and the care-level fee schedule, and whether existing residency agreements carried over.

For context, the median among the 38 large metro communities we profile is 16 citations over the same window, so Woodland Estates Senior Living's count is on the high side. Read the citation text: one complaint visit can produce several citations about a single incident, and the plan of correction shows what the residence committed to change.

What incidents has Woodland Estates Senior Living reported to CDPHE?

Woodland Estates Senior Living filed 32 occurrence reports with CDPHE between 2023 and 2026, about 24 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.

The most recent reports CDPHE lists, by category:

• Aug 15, 2026: Verbal Abuse
• Jun 12, 2026: Missing Person
• May 26, 2026: Physical Abuse
• May 15, 2026: Sexual Abuse
• Apr 14, 2026: Neglect

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 Woodland Estates Senior Living compared with other assisted living in Denver?

Woodland Estates Senior Living is licensed for 135 beds, more than 94% of the 421 active assisted living residences in the seven-county Denver metro, where the median is 12 beds. It is the No. 9 by size of the 65 CDPHE-licensed ALRs with a Denver address.

Arapahoe County has 136 active ALRs with 3,585 licensed beds in total. 33 of the 65 in Denver are small homes of 16 beds or fewer, usually a converted house with a few caregivers rather than a purpose-built community. Large buildings tend to have a dining room, an activity staff and more caregivers on each shift; small homes trade that for a household feel.

Does Woodland Estates Senior Living accept Health First Colorado (Medicaid)?

Not according to CDPHE. Woodland Estates Senior Living 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.

Arapahoe County's human services office takes Health First Colorado long-term care applications; here is how the HCBS-EBD waiver works.

Does Woodland Estates Senior Living offer memory care?

CDPHE's public data does not say whether Woodland Estates Senior Living 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 Woodland Estates Senior Living?

CDPHE does not publish prices, and we do not list a price for Woodland Estates Senior Living. 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 Denver.

How should you evaluate Woodland Estates Senior Living before choosing it?

Start with the public record, then visit twice. For Woodland Estates Senior Living specifically, ask for the statement of deficiencies from its most-cited inspection and the plan of correction, and ask what changed after the ownership change.

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 Woodland Estates Senior Living?

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

• What changed in staffing, pricing or policies after the recent change of ownership?
• 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?
• Can I read your most recent CDPHE inspection report, including any statement of deficiencies and your plan of correction?
• How is the monthly fee calculated, what triggers a higher care level, and how often did rates rise in the last two years?
