Aurora is our home. The work happens here, and the alumni community lives here.
Paramount Rehab Center is located at 14180 East Evans Avenue in Aurora, Colorado — in the Hampden South neighborhood, easily accessible from I-225 and the southeast metro corridor. We’ve been serving Aurora and the surrounding communities since 2018.
Aurora is Colorado’s third-largest city, with about 405,000 residents and one of the most diverse populations in the state. That diversity shows up in our admissions: clients come to us from every background, every income level, every type of insurance — and from communities that have historically been underserved by addiction treatment.
What being an Aurora-based program means
Most rehab facilities are owned by national chains. Ours is locally operated, with clinicians who live in the communities they serve and an alumni community rooted in this part of the metro. That changes how the work feels.
Coordinated with local resources. We have working relationships with Aurora Mental Health Center, the local hospital systems (UCHealth, HCA HealthONE The Medical Center of Aurora), and the courts and probation systems that often refer clients to treatment. Care coordination across providers is easier when everyone is in the same metro.
Aurora-based alumni community. Weekly alumni meetings happen in our facility. Most of our graduates stay in the area. The community you build during treatment is the same community that’s still here on day 30, day 300, day 3,000.
Transportation that actually works. Aurora’s public transit isn’t ideal for daily outpatient programs. We coordinate transportation for clients who need it, especially for early-recovery outpatient when driving may not yet be appropriate.
Who we serve
Our typical Aurora admissions span the demographics of the city:
- Working adults with commercial insurance through their employer who need flexible IOP and outpatient programs to maintain employment
- Medicaid (Health First Colorado) members for whom we are an in-network provider with no out-of-pocket cost in most cases
- Veterans through TRICARE and VA-coordinated care
- First-time treatment-seekers who have never been to rehab and need a soft landing into the process
- Repeat treatment-seekers who have been through programs before and need something more sustained
The Aurora addiction landscape
Like most of Colorado, Aurora has been substantially affected by the opioid crisis, particularly the shift to fentanyl over the past several years. We also see significant alcohol use disorder admissions, methamphetamine cases (notably increasing), and dual diagnosis presentations across all substances.
What we don’t see — and don’t want to see more of — is people delaying treatment because they think they can’t afford it. Most can. We just have to verify the insurance.
