Our Team

KIM BACKES

Executive Director

I am a native of Colorado, with a husband, 3 amazing adult children, and 3 wonderful huskies that keep me entertained. I began in this industry in my teens when my Grandmother began to show signs of Alzhelmer’s Disease, she came to live with us, and my family became her caretakers.

I went to school for my CNA license and worked as a CNA until I had my kiddos. When I returned to Senior Living, I went the Assisted Living route and have been there ever since.

I learned a lot from my mother who was a Director of Nursing for the duration of her career, and I chose to go a different direction because I saw what senior communities were like, and what they could be, so I went the direction of leading people.

I have my BS in Organizational Leadership, have been through the Eden Alternative training and have worked for some of the largest senior living organizations, I am most excited about being with Golden Lodge because I believe we can do it right. The team here is one of the best I have seen, and we have a blank slate to do what we have all wanted to be done, I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this community.
