Many of us have fond memories of growing up in a neighborhood where we all knew each other, watched out for each other, felt comfortable and safe. This is why we have included “NEIGHBORHOOD” in our name – we want you to recapture this wonderful part of your past.
At Ralston Creek Neighborhood, you will make new friends in your new neighborhood. The community will become your neighborhood, with dining, entertainment and social interaction.
Ralston Creek Neighborhood also is part of the greater Arvada community, with its shopping, parks, movie theatres, churches and all that makes a neighborhood your home.
Assisted Living at Ralston Creek Neighborhood is designed for seniors who wish to maintain their independent lifestyle, but may need some additional assistance.
Professional, trained and certified staff are available to meet scheduled and unscheduled needs.
If you’re caring for a mother, father, husband, or wife with memory loss, you’ve probably noticed that their personality changes day to day, hour to hour, or even minute to minute. We don’t believe in “good days” or “bad days” when it comes to caring for those with memory loss. Our Memory Care program focuses on meeting a person where they are intellectually and emotionally at each point throughout the day.
For a lot of caregivers, taking care of their mom and dad is a full-time job. The idea of going out of town for a weekend or an unexpected short-term change in care needs, like doctor’s orders after being discharged from the hospital, are serious stressors for caregivers who already feel worn thin. If you’re a caregiver who needs some extra help for a few weeks or days, respite care might be the perfect fit.
Having some fun and celebrating National Reptile Day here at Ralston Creek Neighborhood!
Ellie joined the Ralston Creek Neighborhood family in November 2017. Before COVID-19, she enjoyed participating in many activities, such as bingo, Rosary group, Wii bowling, and crafts. Each day she looked forward to socializing and sharing meals with her friends in the dining room.
She was born in 1918 during the Spanish Flu pandemic, and 102 years later, she is living during her second pandemic.
Ellie still experiences physical and mental health, using her laptop and iPad to play games. She is a voracious reader. She was an avid painter, seamstress, quilter, crafter, and card player extraordinaire.
Ellie’s proudest accomplishment was raising her four children. She has enjoyed welcoming 15 grandchildren, 26 great-grandchildren, and 16 great-great-grandchildren to the family – the loves of her life.
It is fantastic and wonderful for her family to celebrate her 102nd birthday on Monday, October 12, 2020.
Happy Birthday Ellie
September 28th was National Strawberry Pie Day! We celebrated by giving away free pies!

Dear Residents, Families, and Employees of RCN:
The surveillance testing of every resident and employee last week resulted in ALL negative tests.
The one employee who tested positive more than 10 days ago remains in self quarantine and will be re-tested twice before returning to work.
Unfortunately, community spread in Jefferson County is high in the last 14 days which will require a negative test and 48-hour window to come indoors for a visit. We continue to encourage outdoor visitation. Please call me with questions.
We will not be Covid testing this week.
Our salon is re-opening tomorrow and the list is long. Thank you to those who have submitted a credit card authorization form. The stylists will work with residents and families to make appointments, discuss services offered, and payment of those services.
Thank you,
Mary, ED
