About Solange at South Forrest
Solange at South Forrest occupies a converted single-family residence along Forrest Drive in Highlands Ranch, licensed for nine residents instead of the far larger populations found on multi-building campuses. Assisted living and memory care share the same roof, meaning support for residents living with dementia flows naturally through the kitchen, hallways, and living room rather than staying confined to a separate secured unit.
Bedrooms hold dimensions typical of a private residence, not a clinical wing, and shared spaces feel settled rather than scheduled. Caregivers staff the home around the clock, and the small resident count lets staff build detailed familiarity with each person's wake time, food preferences, and daily rhythm. Grooming and hygiene assistance happen when a resident needs them rather than on a schedule posted for the group.
A caregiver can slow down for someone having a difficult morning without throwing off anyone else's day. A typical day resembles life in an ordinary family home, with residents gathering for meals and spending afternoons in shared living spaces, never walking an institutional hallway to reach the next activity. Staff can direct the afternoon toward rest, conversation, or time outdoors depending on what each resident prefers, avoiding one fixed routine imposed on the whole group.
Assisted living pricing starts near $5,981 monthly, and memory care support runs closer to $6,800 monthly, with the final amount set by how much daily assistance a resident requires. Families pay for care directly here, since this is a private-pay community and Medicaid coverage does not extend to charges at this address. Resident-owned cats and dogs are welcome to move into the household alongside their owners, an option that matters for someone reluctant to part with a longtime companion during a hard transition.
Families who need coverage for a limited stretch, whether during travel or while arranging a longer-term plan, can set up a temporary stay within this same household. This address occupies a peaceful section of Forrest Drive in Highlands Ranch, part of Douglas County, surrounded by single-family homes instead of commercial development. UCHealth's Highlands Ranch hospital campus sits nearby and covers emergency and specialty medical needs beyond what onsite caregivers provide.
Everyday errands, such as picking up a prescription or groceries, remain close by along Forrest Drive. Solange at South Forrest functions as a single residential household instead of a sprawling complex with elevators and multiple wings, so anyone expecting a busy calendar and a large roster of neighbors will find a much smaller, quieter setting here. Staff turnover tends to stay low given the household's modest size, so residents often build relationships with the same caregivers year after year instead of encountering a constantly rotating team.
