About Rocky Mountain Assisted Living and Memory Care on 44th
Rocky Mountain Assisted Living and Memory Care on 44th is a small residential community at 7850 West 44th Avenue in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, built as two adjacent houses, one for assisted living and one for secured memory care. Opened in 2017 and operated by the family-owned Rocky Mountain Assisted Living group, it offers the amenities of a larger community in a home-like setting of just sixteen residents per house.
The two houses let a resident's care match their needs. One house provides assisted living, with help for daily tasks and medication management, while the other is a secured memory care house for residents living with dementia, supporting needs that include wandering risk, behavioral support, overnight care, wound care, and special diets. Each house has its own on-site house manager, and the care team includes on-site physician visits and physical therapy, with hospice available when needed.
Each house runs more than 7,500 square feet, and residents live in private suites with full private baths, a step up from the shared rooms common in small care homes. Four interior courtyards thread through the community with walking paths, raised garden beds, and outdoor seating, and a walk-in hydrotherapy tub, salon room, family rooms, and activity rooms round out each house. Three meals plus snacks are prepared daily, and call systems sit in every room and bathroom.
What stands out is the combination: a small, residential scale with private suites and full baths, paired with both assisted living and secured memory care on one property, so a resident can move between the houses without leaving familiar grounds. The newer 2017 build and the four courtyards give the community a fresh, open feel uncommon in small-home care. The community sits in a Wheat Ridge neighborhood near Wadsworth Boulevard and West 44th Avenue, with Crown Hill Park's lake and open space nearby and Interstate 70 close for family driving in.
Intermountain Health Lutheran Hospital opened a new campus a few minutes west at Clear Creek Crossing in 2024, and St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood is another option to the south. Part of the Rocky Mountain Assisted Living group, which runs small residential homes across metro Denver, the 44th Avenue community pairs a home-like scale with private suites and both assisted living and memory care, making it a fit for Wheat Ridge families who want a small setting without giving up amenities.
Environment
Two adjacent purpose-built houses, each over 7,500 square feet, opened in 2017 in a Wheat Ridge neighborhood. Residents live in private suites with full private baths, and four interior courtyards thread the community with walking paths, raised garden beds, and outdoor seating.
Services
One house provides assisted living with help for daily tasks and medication management; the other is secured memory care for residents with dementia, supporting wandering risk, behavioral needs, overnight care, and wound care. Each house has an on-site manager, and the team includes physician visits, physical therapy, and hospice when needed.
Resident Experience
Three meals plus snacks are prepared each day, and residents use a salon room, family rooms, and activity rooms in each house. The four courtyards offer walking paths and raised garden beds, a walk-in hydrotherapy tub supports bathing, and daily activities and scheduled outings fill the calendar.

I'm a registered nurse and also the daughter of aging parents. When my dad was diagnosed with cancer and needed more care, there was no question for me of where to move he and my stepmom. Being in the industry, we tend to know the good, the bad and the ugly! He chose the Wheat…
My father was here for 3 days and due to his diabetes complications we had to move him to a facility that had 24 hr nursing care. The facility is beautiful and I believe after my conversation with the owner he is building these facilities to help the elderly and their families.…
We searched high and low for a memory care facility for our dad. When we stepped into RMAL in Wheatridge, we knew right away that it was the place for him. The facility is clean, bright, and cheerful. The community is small. And most importantly, the caregivers are consistent…
