Assured Senior Living - South Hoyt Street

Assured Serenity House on South Hoyt Street is a small residential memory care home at 155 South Hoyt Street in central Lakewood, Colorado, a few minutes from the Belmar district. It is one of the Assured Senior Living family of small homes, sized so a handful of residents living with dementia share a calm, homelike house rather than a large, busy building. What stands out about Assured's model is how rich the daily programming is for a small home.

The team runs music therapy, pet therapy, aromatherapy, and art therapy alongside occupational and physical therapy, all on a steady routine that helps residents living with dementia feel grounded. With roughly one caregiver for every four residents, there is real time for one-on-one attention through the day. The home supports residents who need memory care in a setting built for dementia, with help for medications, bathing, dressing, and daily routines, and care available around the clock.

A fenced garden and patio give residents a safe place to be outdoors, which matters for people who do better with regular time in the fresh air. Dining is home-cooked and shared family-style, and the calendar mixes the therapy programming with everyday activities and time outside in the secured garden. On-call physician visits, hospice support, and pharmacy coordination round out the care as needs change.

Assured Senior Living grew out of Serenity House, a Colorado small-home operator founded in 1998, and runs homes across the Denver metro. Assured accepts Colorado's Medicaid waiver for eligible residents on a case-by-case basis, and a senior advisor can walk a family through current pricing and whether Medicaid can apply here. The community welcomes dogs and cats, so a resident's pet can often come along, with the advisor confirming the details.

The South Hoyt location is convenient to care and errands, near the Belmar shopping and dining district, with an HCA HealthONE Belmar emergency room minutes away on Wadsworth and the full Swedish Medical Center in nearby Englewood. With a small, therapy-rich memory-care house, a one-to-four caregiver ratio, a secured garden, and a Belmar-area location close to emergency care, Assured Serenity House on South Hoyt Street gives Lakewood families an intimate alternative to a large memory-care community.
