Senior Living Communities - Does Location Matter?

​When looking for the right memory care facility, does location really matter? On top of trying to ensure you find the best care for your loved one, location is another key factor to consider.
 
Being able to consistently visit with family is a great benefit when it comes to finding the right senior care facility in Colorado Springs. In fact, family visits are proven to have a positive impact on seniors, especially after a major life change such as transitioning to a senior living community. Living nearby also helps to ensure that your loved one is receiving the proper care and support.

​Not only can location make it easier for family visits, but proximity to a hospital or doctor’s office for routine visits can create ease in routine. While Melody Living is proudly the only senior living community with 24/7 on-site nursing staff in the area, routine doctor visits are highly recommended to maintain optimum health.

In the event of an emergency that our nursing staff cannot address, being closer to a hospital can give peace of mind knowing your loved one is minutes away from emergency care. Less than two minutes away, Melody Living is located across the street from St. Francis Medical Center - which means we’re always prepared to support your loved one quickly with the best care possible for their needs.

​The environment you surround yourself with is another important element. Outdoors, one should consider the views, noise quality, safety, and accessibility. Indoors it comes down to accessibility, design, and comfort. Considerable attention is given to the apartment units, providing a sophisticated private residence your loved one can call their own.
 
Environmental Wellness is one of the 8 Dimensions of Wellness that Melody Living strives to encapsulate in every aspect of life in our senior housing community. Melody Living was designed to engage all the senses with sweeping mountain views, cozy outdoor spaces, delectable dining choices, and multiple venues that encourage a life of wellness.
