Respite Care
Beehive Homes offers respite (short-term) care for your loved one should the need arise, expectedly or unexpectedly. Whether help is needed after a surgery or illness, for vacation coverage, or just a break from the routine, respite care provides you peace of mind in knowing your loved one is in good company and being well cared for. Our respite residents appreciate many of the same benefits that our full-time residents enjoy—a furnished room, three nutritious home-cooked meals a day (with snacks), great interaction with residents and staff, and activities tailored to their specific needs. (during the current concern of COVID, respite care may not be available, please call for the current status of this option.)

And this is Why…
The decision to open a home specifically for memory care came from my personal experience. My husband Gary fell victim to Alzheimer’s dementia. While I was able to keep him at home for over 5 years, it finally came time I had to place him in an assisted living that had a memory care wing. Although the first facility tried their best, they requested I move him after 6 months and it took me nearly 2 months to find a facility that not only had a bed for him but could meet his unique needs. Gary was ultimately moved and spent the last 4 months of his life in an assisted living that specialized in memory care 400 miles outside of our community. I felt strongly that no one should ever have to leave their community for their dementia-related end-of-life needs. After Gary passed, I became determined to investigate the feasibility of making available that kind of care to Montezuma County. Then I found BeeHive Homes…and as they say, the rest is history.
