C.R.S. Section 25-27-104.5
Requirements governing forfeiture of security deposits and rent

If a lease provision in a resident care plan or in a contract signed by a resident of an assisted living residence results in or requires forfeiture of more than thirty days of rent if a resident moves due to a medical condition or dies during the term of the plan, then the plan shall be deemed to be against public policy and shall be void; except that inclusion of such a provision shall not render the remainder of the plan or contract void. A lease provision in a written board and care plan or in a contract that requires forfeiture of rent for thirty days after the resident moves due to a medical condition or dies does not violate this section. The provisions regarding forfeiture of rent shall appear on the front page of the plan or contract and shall be printed in no less than twelve-point bold-faced type. The provisions shall read as follows:

This lease agreement is for a month-to-month tenancy. The lessor shall not require the forfeiture of rent beyond a thirty-day period if the lessee moves due to a medical condition or dies during the term of the lease.

In circumstances in which the resident moves due to a medical condition or dies during the term of a plan or contract, the assisted living residence shall return that part of rent paid in excess of thirty days’ rent after a patient moves or dies to the resident or the resident’s estate. The assisted living residence may assess daily rental charges for any days in which the former or deceased resident’s personal possessions remain in the resident’s room after the time period for which the resident has paid rent and for the usual time to clean the room after the resident’s personal possessions have been removed. For purposes of this section, “daily rental charges” means an amount not to exceed one-thirtieth of thirty days’ rental amount plus reasonable expenses.
