At Cappella of Grand Junction, we’ve created a dementia care community where residents continue growing and flourishing rather than simply existing. Our approach to senior memory support comes from deep understanding, as we embrace the “walk a mile in my shoes” approach to older adult care. We are committed to fostering a healthy, hopeful, responsive environment where residents’ needs and values are respected.
Cappella of Grand Junction offers a unique and caring approach to memory support that focuses on possibilities for older adults living with dementia.
Everything—from the architecture to chef-planned meals to a calendar packed with life-affirming activities—was designed to enhance residents’ quality of life.
Here, your loved one will be welcomed into an accepting, adaptive environment, offering you peace of mind that they are receiving compassionate, quality care.
We are leaders in providing senior memory support, in the ways that matter most.
Every resident has a natural rhythm to his or her life, beliefs, and values they hold dear. Rather than encouraging residents to abandon those life-anchoring rhythms, we adapt to support their way of life. Our team members form deep, personal relationships with residents, allowing us to meet both spoken and unspoken needs.
We thoughtfully create an environment where residents are supported and empowered on their dementia journeys.
No other Western Slope dementia care community approaches memory support quite the way we do. We design a personalized Alzheimer’s and dementia care plan for each resident, one that honors each individual, maintains dignity, and nurtures body, mind, and spirit.
We aren’t focused exclusively on what your family member has lost. Rather, we look for what is possible and provide tailored, effective memory support that upholds and celebrates key areas of life.
On Colorado’s Western Slope, Cappella leads the way in providing…
Our residents come from all across the Western Slope. But once they’re here, they forge meaningful new friendships—because daily activities create engaging on-ramps for mingling, learning, and making fresh connections.
Book clubs, musical performances, community sing-alongs, afternoon movies, pie and coffee socials, a comfortable corner reserved for crafters and puzzle enthusiasts—we’re the leader in supporting those living with dementia with meaningful interaction between your loved one and fellow residents and caregivers.
Review a monthly activity calendar and you’ll see how many ways there are for your loved one to form satisfying relationships. We’ve worked with residents to carefully incorporate a wide range of options, assuring there’s something for everyone.
Optional morning devotions are meaningful for many residents. Scripture reading is appreciated by others. And a non-denominational church service every Sunday offers music and fellowship.
Catholic communion is also available, as are conversations with a caring and compassionate Western Slope pastor.
We honor the spiritual lives of residents and support the traditions that bring residents comfort.
Individualized health and wellness support for residents includes an onsite fitness center, spa, pet therapy, and Movement 4 Life program.
Through this program, residents are encouraged to maintain strength, balance, and flexibility through daily movement. Simple movements, recommended by physical therapists, are integrated into routines to build whole body wellness and decrease the risk of falls.
We’re proud that Cappella of Grand Junction has received the prestigious Pinnacle Customer Experience Award. This honor is given only after extensive interviews with residents and their families, and just the top 15% of communities are recognized with this award.
