Colorow Care Center

Colorow is a charming 62-bed home of southwestern design set in rural Colorado. As the only Eden Alternative™ Registered Community on the western slope, Colorow has demonstrated its commitment to high standards and interdisciplinary person-centered care. (To learn more about the Eden Alternative™, please visit their website at www.edenalt.com.) Its small size, open living area, and simple layout add to a warm atmosphere where everyone can participate in everyday activities. Located halfway between the Delta and Montrose hospitals, Colorow is well served by the specialized services available in both communities. The kindness of the staff and the sincerity with which they deliver quality care is remarkable. Private and semi-private accommodations are available.
