Compassionate Care Rooted in Community
- The Peacock Care Homes Story
Where Compassion Meets Purpose
Peacock Care Homes was founded in 2021 by a local Fort Collins family. The team includes a physical therapist with a 30-year history of working with seniors in assisted living and memory care communities throughout the Loveland/Fort Collins area, and an MD with training in general surgery. Their vision for Peacock Care Homes is to provide the highest quality assisted living and memory care options for seniors in Northern Colorado.
The communities consist of renovated homes designed to create a safe, secure, and comfortable environment for small groups of seniors to live together and thrive.

About Xioma Diaz
Xioma Diaz has more than 30 years of experience in senior care and physical therapy. She has dedicated her career to helping seniors and their families navigate the aging process with compassion and expertise.
Xioma earned her Bachelor of Physical Therapy from Northern Illinois University in 1994. Since then, she has worked exclusively with older adults in Skilled Nursing, Memory Care, and Assisted Living settings.
She has treated patients with dementia, Alzheimer’s, orthopedic injuries, neurological conditions, and post-surgical needs. Each experience deepened her understanding of how personalized care can improve daily life for seniors.
For more than 15 years, Xioma also worked in Home Health, serving older adults throughout Northern Colorado. This work gave her a close view of how independence and safety shape seniors’ well-being.
As a seasoned physical therapist, Xioma helps seniors manage life transitions with empathy and skill. She often supports residents and families as they adjust to new communities and routines.
Xioma and her husband, Eric, live in Fort Collins with their two daughters and foster son. They have been married for more than eight years and began fostering in 2018. Their youngest, Elijah, has captured their hearts and brightened their home.
Together, Xioma and Eric operate three assisted living and memory care homes in Northern Colorado. When not working, they enjoy hiking, sailing, and relaxing on Colorado’s lakes.

Eric has called Fort Collins home since age 3. He and his wife, Xioma, live here with their two stepdaughters and foster son.

- Our Philosophy
Assisted living VS Memory care
The main difference between assisted living and memory care is the level of care each provides. Memory care is a higher level of care than assisted living, as it is specifically designed for those with memory impairments such as Alzheimer’s or dementia. Memory care communities provide personal care in assistance with activities of daily living as well as around-the-clock supervision and a secure environment. Assisted living on the other hand is a lower level of care, designed for those who need help with some activities of daily living but are still relatively independent.
