How many licensed nursing homes are in the Denver metro?
CDPHE lists 101 active nursing facilities across the seven metro counties, with 10,699 licensed beds. The table shows each one's CDPHE Facility ID, beds and Medicare/Medicaid certification, with a link to its state record.
Nursing homes also have federal star ratings and inspection reports on Medicare's Care Compare; CDPHE's record covers state licensing. See nursing homes in Denver for how to choose one.
What are the Medicare star ratings of Denver-metro nursing homes?
Of the 101 nursing homes listed for the seven-county Denver metro, 96 carry a Medicare overall star rating: 18 have 5 stars, 23 have 4, 23 have 3, 23 have 2 and 9 have 1 star. The table shows each home's CMS overall, health inspection, staffing and quality measure ratings, last standard survey, health deficiencies, Medicare-certified beds and federal penalties, with links to its CDPHE record and its own Care Compare page.
Ratings from Medicare Care Compare, data as of October 2026. Star ratings are calculated by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services; they are government ratings, not resident reviews.

Assisted living vs. memory care in Colorado: what is and isn't the same?
In Colorado both are licensed by CDPHE as an Assisted Living Residence; memory care is an ALR (or a section of one) that also operates a secure environment for residents with dementia.
| Assisted living (ALR) | Memory care (ALR with a secure environment) | |
|---|---|---|
| State license | Is a CDPHE Assisted Living Residence license (6 CCR 1011-1, Chapter 7) | Is the same ALR license; it isn't a separate license type |
| Doors and exits | Isn't locked; residents come and go | Is a secure (locked or alarmed) environment under Chapter 7, Part 25 |
| Who it serves | Is for adults who need help with daily activities and medications | Is for residents whose dementia makes leaving unsafe |
| Medical care | Isn't skilled nursing; round-the-clock nurses aren't required | Isn't skilled nursing either: more supervision, not more medical care |
| In CDPHE's public data | Is listed with Facility ID, beds and inspection record | Isn't flagged separately; ask for the secure-environment disclosure |
| Typical Denver-metro cost (2026) | About $3,200–$5,800 a month | About $4,500–$7,800 a month |
