My father in law, recently diagnosed with onset dementia, was adamant in his own way that perhaps ""one of these days"" might need some additional care, ""direction"" is the term he used. His wife, my mother in law, passed away from cancer and he returned to the valley (Arizona) to be near his kids, including me, his daughter in law. For awhile he was fine on his own, still managed to keep a part time job, care for his five cats and take basic care of himself and his residence. As time progressed, we, meaning myself and my husband and his two siblings, realized he might need more intervention with his daily care without causing him any stress or anxiety. We began visiting facilities near his home, talking to staff and familiarizing ourselves with the protocol, which was new to all of us. One of these facilities was this one. A beautiful home, literally a house, in Surprise. The exact area my father in law had come to know and be confident in. We scheduled a tour with a delightful receptionist and right on schedule, they expected our arrival. Honestly, a beautiful home with full access to television, newspapers delivered daily, exceptional staff, activities like noon walks, bingo, socializing, exercise! My favorite thing of all time was the ""letter writing"" sessions. It literally brought tears to my eyes. I loved how Noble focused on each person. I mean, we aren't numbers. We aren't patients waiting to die. We're people, mental discrepancies or not. Noble really seemed to be in tune and akin to that idea. I'd recommend this home (notice I didn't say facility?) to anybody.
