My dad's very happy at Chaparral Winds Retirement Community's assisted living and they've been very good at helping him with all his needs. If he's happy, we're happy too. The people who work there seem very, very helpful. He has mentioned that previously, his appetite was pretty much non-existent but now he's eating well again, so that's good. They have lots of activities and as soon as he gets stronger, he's looking forward to getting out and doing more. His apartment is very clean, everything is easy to get around within his walker, it's very accessible, and he's really happy with it. I haven't been there but my brother flew down and they had a large room where you can go and visit with people. They let us know how his health is. He had to go to the hospital not long ago and they called right away and let us know so I think communication has been great. Everything is clean and he's got lots of room to roam when he can, so I'd say it's a great place.

So far, Chaparral Winds Retirement Community has been really good, and the big thing why we chose it was because it's all inclusive. So, if it gets worse, most expenses don't go up. The food, the care, and the staff have all been really good. They check their residents day and night. My dad is in a studio with his own bathroom, living area, a refrigerator, microwave, and a sink. So, it's comfortable for him. Everything's clean and nice. It's pretty roomy. They have activities for them, games, and crafts. They have a little park-like area outside and an activities room that's more like a dining room.

Chaparral Winds Retirement Community…. Like living on a cruise ship. If you are trying to decide whether to sell your home and move into a Retirement Community, look no further than Chaparral Winds and here’s why… I am 74yr old and LOVE living here. To tell you why, I will give you an analogy…. My husband passed away and living alone whether in a house, or an apartment wasn’t cutting it. I was still “alone” in my home, eating alone and having to force myself to do things outside of my home. Plus, I was tired of home ownership maintenance. So, I moved into Chaparral Winds Retirement Community in Surprise, AZ. They are also a "Pet Friendly" Community. This was the “best thing” I could have done. Now to give you the analogy… My husband and I cruised a lot and loved it. Living in Chaparral Winds Retirement Community is like being on a permanent cruise, except you are docked on land, no water under you and you don’t get seasick. Look at it this way… compared to a cruise… You can take the van to do things in the city, or go on your own…just like on a cruise. You have your own stateroom/apartment, you do have to make your own bed and do your own laundry, but you can pay extra for someone else to do it, if your so choose… but you do get housekeeping, will clean your apartment or casita twice a month. You get a schedule of events in your personal mailbox weekly, not daily on your bed. Lots of activities and they bring in entertainment. If you have a problem in your apartment…ex: dishwasher stops working… call the front desk (Purser if on a cruise) and they will notify maintenance to fix the issue. No cost to you… just like on a cruise. You step outside in the hallway and you are sure to find happy and friendly residents, just like on a cruise ship. You can just walk down the hall and take part in activities, use the exercise room and/or enjoy the entertainment. Now about the food…let’s face it, we all want to know how good the food is, just like on a cruise. All you do is fill out your menu… with lots of choices, turn it in once a week and then head to the dining room and enjoy the fantastic food or you can have it delivered to your room… sound like a cruise again? Our current chef worked for 5 yrs. on a cruise ship, plus in the UK for 14 yr. … so how can you beat that for chef experience. The food is awesome, as are the desserts. They try to keep the entrees and desserts on the menus changing so we always look forward to great meals. If at some point you need Assisted Living or Memory Care… they have that too… AND…same great food! Again, if you are considering an easier life, with friends, great food, activities, entertainment, exercise classes, etc. Look no further… Come check out Chaparral Winds. I love it here and I am sure you will too. ~Laurie H.

My family and myself were lucky that when our beloved uncle Ted needed to be placed on Hospice, he was a resident at Chaparral Winds Assisted Living in Surprise Arizona. Our uncle was never diagnosed, but after 94 full years he developed “ The Dwindles.” The combination of care provided by Chaparral Winds and Hospice, and the Case Management that Hospice provided allowed our uncle to remain in his home until the end. As CW is not a nursing home Hospice was required to oversee his end of life care, adjust medications, and maintain communication with the family on his well being. Unfortunately all my uncles family lived out of state, and neither of these entities provide 24 hour care, so we hired a sitter for the last month of his life. The staff at CW and Hospice helped in determining how and when to provide this additional help, which allowed us to stretch his dollars. The presence of another person to offer water, companionship, and to be an advocate in place of family greatly relieved his fears of being alone. In such a changing situation, there were needs for adjustments. I can say that the willingness of CW to communicate, and take action when needed, was professional and compassionate. Not everyone has the temperament to work with the elderly. The interaction with my uncle that I observed, from Administrator, Director of Nursing, nursing staff, housekeeping, dietary, and maintenance was respectful and caring. The loss of our dear uncle was lessened in knowing that at the end of his life, he had a second family at Chaparral Winds.

I chose Chaparral Winds Retirement Community -- after looking at four or five others -- because of the price, what it covered, the atmosphere, what it looked like, and the overall appearance of the place. There weren't many activities going on. I would definitely recommend them because I'm happy here. It's a very nice place.

My in-laws have moved into Chaparral Winds. It is very nice. There is a choice for independent living or assisted living, and they even have memory care. Many staff members have been there for a long time. They're very pleasant, came in, and introduced themselves right away. They seem to be very on top of things. Chaparral Winds is a very clean place. My in-laws like the food. They have music from time to time, and they go out just to get to stores. They are welcome to go over to the independent side and go on their outings.
Chaparral Winds Retirement Community offers Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care all on one campus and under one roof. Our Independent Community offers a stress-free rental environment with short term leases at very affordable prices. Luxury apartments surrounded by acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, shaded walkways, and a large lap pool are all within our secure, gated community. The Assisted Living program focuses on the individual needs of each resident and includes services and amenities for the resident who requires minimal assistance in carrying out the activities of daily living. Our Memory Care is all-inclusive and features a highly specialized program in our secured "Serenity Wing" for the residents whose needs are more unique due to memory loss or confusion.
