About Cardan Manor at Killarney
Cardan Manor at Killarney is the newer of two family-owned assisted living homes run by Cardan Manor in southeast Aurora, Colorado, at 2895 South Killarney Way. Licensed for seven residents and run by founders Dr. Caroline Bamu and Daniel Abam, it brings around-the-clock care into a purpose-arranged ranch house in the Conservatory neighborhood. The house is built around an open great-room concept, where a large island kitchen flows into a great room with a fireplace, and a formal dining room and activity area sit nearby.
Residents receive assisted living around the clock, with help for bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication management, and the team supports residents living with memory loss in a secured setting. A reported ratio of roughly one caregiver to five residents keeps care close. Daily life is family-style: meals are made to order from fresh ingredients, including beef, chicken, seafood, fruits, vegetables, and homemade pastries, with menus adjusted to dietary needs, and a spacious deck is used for lunches, relaxation, and social events.
Activities range from drawing, painting, and music to games, walks, bus rides, and Bible study, and a wheelchair-accessible van handles outings. The draw is a newer, open-plan ranch home at a tiny scale. With seven residents in one house, caregivers know everyone, and the open great room and formal dining room give the home more shared space than many homes its size. It is part of the two-home Cardan Manor family, both founded by the same family in 2012.
The home sits in the Conservatory, a master-planned neighborhood of rolling hills, parks, and walking paths in southeast Aurora, minutes from the Southlands shopping center. The Medical Center of Aurora, a Level II trauma center, is the nearest hospital, a few miles away. Run by founders Dr. Caroline Bamu and Daniel Abam, Cardan Manor at Killarney offers Aurora families a small, newer, open-plan assisted living home with hands-on care for an older adult who needs that care in a true home setting.
