Amenities and Services

SERVICES

DESCI offers housekeeping services for a fee that can be cusomized to meet the needs of each person. Residents may choose to have housekeeping regularly or only as needed.

We now serve lunch four days a week Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays in our 12th floor dining room and the lunches are subsidized by DESCI. The meals are fabulous!

The Visiting Nurse Assn. comes to DESCI twice a month to take blood pressures, clip nails and provide other health services.

On staff maintenance personnel are available to perform handy man tasks for DESCI residents when needed.

Desci is a private not for profit building but we participate in the Denver Housing Authority Section-8 voucher program. If a resident is on Section-8, DESCI will accept payments from Section-8 for rent payments.

DESCI is equipped with a state of the art secured entry system with 24-hour management coverage.

On the lower level, DESCI has an exercise room complete with a jacuzzi and ping pong table. The lower level is also where the laundry room is located and the storage lockers.

On the first floor you will find our Mini Mart. The mini Mart is run by the residents and stocks all the essentials plus a variety of delicious snacks and beverages. All proceeds go to the Resident Council fund to be used for resident activities. Also on the first floor is the DESCI Beauty Shop.

Our 12th floor is DESCI's crowning glory with a panoramic view of Denver and the surrounding mountains. Residents can get their exercise by walking outside on the roof walkway that goes around the entire 12th floor.
