​Art offers an avenue for residents to express themselves when words may elude them. Engaging in various art forms, such as painting, drawing, or crafting, can rekindle memories and emotions, helping residents connect with their past and retain a sense of identity. Our silk flower workshops, “no paint” painting, and adult coloring book sessions are enjoyable creative outlets for our residents to indulge in. Take a look at our monthly calendar to see all we have planned.

Music can hold a unique power in memory care. At Melody Living, dance and music activities not only promote physical health but also enhance cognitive health. Participating in group dances and gentle movements stimulates neural connections and improves memory recall. Our residents love to get their groove on at the weekly “Oldies but Goodies” sing along and dance sessions.

Melody Living integrates cognitive games and puzzles into their activities, offering fun and engaging ways to challenge memory, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. From active games like balloon volleyball and parachute toss to games that focus on cognitive skills and memory exercises, there's fun to be had while continuously promoting occupational wellness for our residents. 

​Melody Living curates themed celebrations and social gatherings that encourage residents to connect with other residents, friends, and family in a lively and inclusive environment. These events foster a sense of community and create memorable moments for all. We celebrate major holidays but we also know that celebrating just because can be even more fun.

At Melody Living Assisted Living in Colorado Springs, we believe in providing resident-focused care that enriches the lives of our residents. One of the unique and heartwarming ways we achieve this is through our monthly therapy dog program. These furry companions play a significant role in creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in our luxury assisted living community. 

Our resident-focused care approach ensures that each individual's needs, preferences, and desires are at the forefront of our services. From upscale amenities to a variety of engaging activities, we strive to create a vibrant and supportive environment where residents can live a Life in Harmony™ and thrive.

​Therapy dogs are specially trained animals with a heart for bringing joy and comfort to those they encounter. These furry friends have been shown to have numerous therapeutic benefits, including reducing stress, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness. At Melody Living Assisted Living, our therapy dog program is carefully designed to enhance the emotional wellness of our residents.

​While our senior assisted living apartments are pet-friendly, residents can experience the joys of pet companionship without the responsibility of pet ownership. Our therapy dogs are lovingly cared for and brought to interact with residents, offering unconditional love and friendship to brighten their days. 

Through gentle interactions, playfulness, and affection, these canine companions offer comfort and a sense of security to our residents. Their presence is especially meaningful to residents who may have had pets in the past or miss the companionship of their own animals. For many seniors, transitioning to assisted living can bring feelings of isolation. Therapy dogs serve as a bridge, bringing residents together and encouraging social interactions. 

The companionship of therapy dogs can have a profound impact on residents' overall well-being. Studies have shown that petting dogs can lower blood pressure, reduce cortisol levels, and release endorphins, promoting a sense of calm and contentment. Additionally, the mental stimulation provided by these affectionate animals can improve cognitive function.

​At Melody Living Assisted Living in Colorado Springs, our commitment to resident-focused care extends beyond providing a luxurious living environment. Our therapy dog program is a testament to our dedication to enhancing the well-being and happiness of our residents. These loving companions bring comfort, joy, and a sense of belonging to our senior assisted living residents in Colorado Springs.

​Melody Living’s senior independent living residents love to get out and explore their community. Each month our Life Enrichment Director plans a variety of outings for our residents to learn more about the history of Colorado, explore the natural beauty that Colorado has to offer, and just to go out and have fun!
 
From exploring new foods, hitting up popular tourist sites throughout our hometown, or meeting up with other seniors in the community for some dancing, our active senior retirement community loves to have fun and try new things. 

​Recently, our seniors gathered together to enjoy a prom night hosted by the Senior Resource Council. Our Lunch Bunch Group meets regularly at new restaurants in the area to catch up with fellow residents. Almost every outing involves a stop to grab a bite to eat somewhere in our community.
 
From local stops to day trips to historical landmarks, our residents get to learn about the history behind our great state. In Colorado Springs, we visited the Olympic & Paralympic Training Center. On a separate occasion, we headed up to Jefferson County to visit the Buffalo Bills Museum and Grave Site. 

​Colorado native or not, exploring all the amazing attractions Colorado, and especially Colorado Springs, has to offer is a great way to explore the community and bond with fellow residents. Take a look at our monthly activity calendar to see what fun outings we have coming up.
