FRIENDSHIP HOMES
Re: 1312 E. Pitkin
The Friendship Home is a Board and Care group home designed for
the elderly, providing 24-hour care for a maximum of four (4) resi-
dents. A resident manager, Dorothy Stout, occupies the home.
Dorothy is licensed for Board and Care for the Elderly under the
State of Colorado. Relief people, including a Registered Nurse,
are employed part-time to give the resident manager time off and,
in the case of the nurse, to set up the medications for the resi-
dents.
The Friendship Home provides three nutritious meals and snacks
every day. As appropriate, the residents are encouraged to exer-
cise, to socialize, and to engage in hobbies and activities. Visits
to the doctor, visitation with relatives, and human care concerns
and therapies are coordinated. The rooms are cleaned, laundry
done, and personal care and cleanliness attended to.
Our overall goal is to provide a healthy, positive environment
for the residents in a "home" setting. Every effort is made to
keep each resident functioning as an indpendent person.
