State notes
Colorado reports long-term COVID-19 care data for Nursing Homes, Assisted Living Facilities, Independent Living Facilities and Combined Healthcare Facilities. CTP categorized Independent Living and Combined Healthcare facilities as Lumped and Other in our data collection. Colorado reports cumulative and outbreak data. Colorado only reports facility-level data. Colorado reports resident and staff cases and deaths separately.
COVID Tracking Project collects Colorado’s cumulative data of resident and staff cases and deaths by summing facility-level data. Colorado reports facilities as “resolved” or “active”, CTP sums all “resolved” and “active” facilities cases and deaths to produce Colorado’s cumulative totals for resident and staff cases and deaths.
Colorado reports outbreak data of resident and staff cases and deaths by summing facility-level data. CTP sums all “active” facilities cases and deaths. Colorado defines an outbreak as 2 or more confirmed or 1 confirmed and 2 or more probable COVID-19 cases in a 14-day period. An outbreak ends when 28 days have passed with no new illness, and Colorado relabels the outbreak from “active” to “resolved”.

The state provides facility-level cumulative data. The state provides facility-level outbreak data. Cumulative facility-level data was first reported by the state on 2020-05-15. Outbreak facility-level data was first reported by the state on 2020-05-15.
Because each state reports facility-level data differently, CTP has produced a number of scripts to make the dataset as standardized and comprehensive as possible. This state uses the following scripts: standardize_data, collapse_outbreak_rows. More information on each of these scripts can be found in our Airtable Facility Script Annotations.
