About A Loving Hand Assisted Living
A Loving Hand Assisted Living is a small residential care home at 3079 South Holly Place in the University Hills area of southeast Denver, Colorado. Licensed for 8 residents, it delivers assisted living in a true house setting, where a low resident count means caregivers come to know each person by name and adjust to their pace rather than running a schedule built for dozens. Care here covers the everyday essentials of assisted living, from medication management and help with bathing, dressing, and grooming to round-the-clock supervision and assistance through the routines of daily life.
A nurse is on duty several days a week, and the home is equipped to support residents through the stages of dementia and Alzheimer's, which lets many families avoid a second move as memory needs deepen over time. Daily life is built around the rhythms of a home rather than an institution. Residents share home-cooked meals prepared with allergy-sensitive and special-diet options, gather for movie nights and scheduled daily activities, and spend time on the walking paths and in the garden.
Housekeeping, laundry, and help coordinating medical appointments are handled by staff so families can focus on visiting. Rooms come in both private and shared layouts, each furnished with a telephone and an emergency alert system, so a family can match the setting to a budget and a resident's preference for privacy or companionship. The small scale keeps evenings quiet and the common areas calm. Affordability is part of what sets this home apart in southeast Denver.
A Loving Hand is Medicaid-certified, which makes residential assisted living reachable for residents on fixed incomes who would be priced out of larger private-pay communities. A senior advisor can walk through current openings, room pricing, and how Medicaid eligibility applies to a particular situation. The University Hills setting keeps care convenient and visits easy. The home sits in a quiet residential pocket east of Interstate 25 and near South Colorado Boulevard, a short drive from AdventHealth Porter and Rose Medical Center, with University Hills Plaza, Cherry Creek, and everyday shopping close at hand.
For a family who wants a genuine household over a large building, with dementia support and Medicaid accepted, A Loving Hand fills a niche that many Denver communities leave open.

Advisor Insight on
A Loving Hand Assisted Living
For a southeast Denver family that wants real assisted living in a small household, with dementia support and a budget that has to work with Medicaid, A Loving Hand is one of the few homes that combines all three. The trade-off is scale: this is a house with shared common rooms, not a community with a calendar of large events.
- Best for:
- Families who want personal, house-style assisted living for an older adult, including one living with dementia, with Medicaid accepted.
- Consider if:
- This is an 8-resident home, an intimate household rather than a large community with extensive amenities and big social events.
- Ask on tour:
- Ask how the home supports residents as dementia progresses, how Medicaid eligibility applies, and which room types are open and at what monthly rate.
- Comparison:
- Most Denver assisted living is private-pay in larger buildings; this small, Medicaid-certified home supports dementia in a household setting.
