Daily Life at Our Colorado Springs Assisted Living Facility

October 28, 2024

Finding the right Colorado Springs assisted living facility for your loved one is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. You want to ensure they will not only be safe and cared for but also enjoy a rich and fulfilling daily life. At New Day Cottages, we understand this concern, and we take great care to create a warm, welcoming, and compassionate environment.

A Caring and Compassionate Community

At New Day Cottages, we foster a community that feels like family. From the moment your loved one arrives at our Colorado Springs assisted living facility, they will be welcomed with open arms by our friendly staff and residents. Transitioning to an assisted living facility can be challenging, but we make it our mission to help new residents feel at home quickly.



Our caregivers take the time to get to know each resident personally—their preferences, habits, and needs. Our custom-tailored approach ensures that your loved one, parent, or spouse receives not just compassionate care but the attention and respect they deserve. With empathetic staff available 24/7, your loved one is always in good hands at New Day Cottages.

Personalized Care and Support

Every resident at New Day Cottages has unique needs, and we are dedicated to providing specialized care tailored to those needs. Whether your loved one needs help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, or medication management, our caregivers are there to provide support while maintaining dignity and independence.



At our Colorado Springs assisted living facility, we also offer focused care for residents with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or other cognitive impairments. Our team is trained in memory care techniques, and we create individualized care plans so that each resident receives support at every stage of their journey.

Comfortable and Inviting Living Spaces

Our Colorado Springs assisted living facility is designed to be inviting and easy to navigate for all residents. Residents are encouraged to bring personal items to decorate their space, making it truly their own.



Beyond individual rooms, the common areas at New Day Cottages are spacious and cozy, designed to promote social interaction and relaxation. Whether your loved one wants to spend time reading in a quiet nook or chatting with friends in the lounge, they’ll find a space that suits their mood.

Nutritious Meals Tailored to Dietary Needs

Proper nutrition is vital to maintaining health, and at New Day Cottages, we take great pride in offering delicious, balanced meals that meet the dietary needs of each resident. Our on-site culinary teams prepare meals fresh daily, and we ensure that all meals are not only nutritious but also enjoyable.



We also accommodate special dietary restrictions, whether due to allergies, diabetes, or personal preferences. Residents enjoy meals in a communal dining area, where they can dine with friends and enjoy the social aspects of mealtimes. If needed, we also assist with meals to ensure everyone has a positive dining experience.

Engaging Activities and Socialization Opportunities

At New Day Cottages, staying active and engaged is the key to maintaining a fulfilling life. That’s why we offer a wide variety of daily activities designed to appeal to all interests and abilities. There’s an activity for everyone of every ability and walk of life to enjoy.


We also organize group outings to local parks, museums, and events around Colorado Springs, giving residents the opportunity to explore and enjoy new experiences outside of the assisted living home. Socializing is encouraged, and we provide numerous opportunities for residents to build lasting friendships.



For residents with Alzheimer’s or dementia, we offer specialized memory care activities that help stimulate cognitive function and promote emotional well-being. These activities are designed to be engaging while also providing a sense of structure and routine, which can help reduce anxiety and confusion.

Family Involvement and Support

We understand that family involvement is crucial, especially when your loved one transitions to assisted living. At New Day Cottages, we encourage family members to remain active in their loved one’s life and care. You are always welcome to visit, attend activities, or join us for meals.
