"My mom is now at Arbor Ridge Senior Living. It's beautiful. They have very caring staff. They allowed her to take her dog with her, which is really helpful. They are very welcoming to families and visitors. They encourage them to have dinner and hang out with the residents. It's just a really lovely environment, frankly. The staff are very friendly and very conscientious. They really go above and beyond. They make sure that my mom is settling in and doing OK. They help her find the dining room. Food is really good. It's a very clean place. They have activities. They have daily trips on a bus. They have in-house exercise stuff. They have a really cute, little happy hour in the afternoon, where the residents can gather. They have live entertainment, and they have crafting. They just have a ton of stuff. If you want to be really active, it's a good place to be. Their prices are reasonable as well."

"The Montecito is the gold standard in this immediate area. We can't afford them, but from what we saw, they're certainly worth every penny. We met with the marketing director, and she gave us the highlights on the program that they have. They're pretty full. They didn't have any vacant apartments they could show us, but she did make arrangements with one of the residents for us to tour the bedroom to see what it would be like. They're extremely popular. Their dining facility is under renovation. They're expanding that to be able to offer more services. Their menu is very extensive. Every one of their selections is coded with a little caricature that tells you whether it's heart-friendly or diabetic friendly or gluten-free or whatnot. The grounds are very well kept. The only disadvantage is that my wife and I are both mobility challenged, and their elevators are extremely small. I can fit my power chair into the elevators, but anybody with a scooter would not be able to get the scooter into the elevator. They're not deep enough, so that restricts folks that had mobility challenges to the first floor. The residents all seemed to be friendly. It's very open and very accommodating. It's a newer facility. It appears very, very neat, clean, well-maintained, and airy. You don't feel it's claustrophobic at all. There's a lot of open space. They have a pretty comprehensive list of activities."

"The Palms at Sun City was like a fancy hotel. It was very plush. The food was great. It was fantastic. The facilities were wonderful. They had everything there. They have exercise, and they have all the equipment. They had all of the different places. It was very nice. The atmosphere was wonderful. I went with my son and daughter-in-law, and we were in the dining room. Some ladies were eating in the dining room, and they came over, talked to us, and welcomed us. I was unhappy with the apartment that they had shown me. It looked out over a parking area. I did not like it at all. They showed me two different apartments. I could go to the second floor, but they were showing me one on the third floor. The apartments were like a fancy hotel. The hallways were very nice. It had a full-sized kitchen, washers and dryers, and storage. They had a beautiful courtyard."

"I just moved my wife to Inspira at Arrowhead and the level of care that I've seen and the ratio of caregivers to residents surpasses all the other facilities I've been to. The layout of the facility for memory care is very conducive to observation and activities. It's a very new facility. It's only 4 years old. The staff is wonderful. The directors are very involved in running the community, knowing the residents, and being accessible to me. So, they know the residents, which is nice. They just don't ship them in and forget them. When I brought my wife in there, they scooped her up and started her joining an activity right away. They have music about 2 to 3 times a week and they have pianos in every section of the facility. I saw once after lunch where they had a movie. Their food is excellent. It's freshly made. They have fruits and water out so the residents can have them if they want. They're very attentive and very accommodating to the needs of the residents. The facility is very clean, very modern, and very up-to-date. The activity room, dining room, and movie room are all in the center of the memory care area. They have three memory care pods and all their apartments are lining the outside. Therefore, if the residents are out and about, the caregivers can see them. They don't have to look for them down the hallway. They also have outside courtyards that they can visit and they're monitored to make sure they don't get sunburned or dehydrated or any of that. Some things are included and are not included in the price. Like the TV itself and the connection, they are free, but you have to pay for the WIFI for yourself and furnish your own furniture. They have a great connection with people that helped me furnish her apartment though and they did a beautiful job. It's the best place that I have ever seen."

"My mom has been living in AZ Life Assisted Living Home LLC I since April 2024. I am so grateful for the tender loving care she receives from Effie and Igor and their staff. They are so kind and they really understand my mom's sense of humor! They have lifted such a burden from me and my family. Initially, it was a very difficult decision to make, but they quickly made us feel at ease and my mom is happy and receiving the care she needs. We know we have made the right decision. There is an in-house doctor who visits routinely and prescribes her necessary meds. Effie pics them up from the pharmacy and administers them. They always provide healthy and appetizing meals and snacks and the facility is spotless. They are quick to keep me apprised of all medical and doctor updates and I truly feel a friendship with both of them, as well as their staff. I highly recommend this facility!"

"We toured Adobe Country Gables. It's a beautiful, massive house. It's a regular home, but it's big. It's a mansion. It's like eight bedrooms. It's very well put together. That wasn't the selling point. The selling point was the owner. The guy that owns the place, was so good with the people that live there. He has a great setup. He's been doing this since he was a kid. He's very good. He knows exactly what he's doing. He has no qualms about any of the jobs that need to be done. He has little routines that they do. He'll take certain ones out to do certain things and the other ones to do other things. He's very structured that way and they like him very much. There is like one little tiny closet in a room that would be perfect for somebody who was getting arrested or something, but the rest of the rooms were beautiful, they were big, they had big windows and interiors, bright colored ceilings, and it was fabulous. I loved the place."

"My mother was in D&L Adult Care Home for almost 9 years. They took such good care of her and treated her as if she was a member of their family. The last four years my mother was completely bedridden and she had no bedsores or pressure spots on her. There was never a hospital smell to the home. My mother always enjoyed the home cooked meals. I would recommend D&L Adult Care Home without reservations.. "

"The people were all very nice at Brookdale Arrowhead Ranch. We even talked to the activities director, and she was very nice and helpful. The person conducting the tour was extremely nice, too. They were very helpful, and they answered the questions that we had. My father liked the smaller community feel of that location. The rooms were adequate. Of course, bigger is always better, but that is how that goes. They were definitely as good as could be expected. The upkeep looked really good. Things were clean, and the yards were kept. The dining area looked very pleasant, like it would be a nice place to dine."

"I went to Arizuma Horizons Assisted Living. They're very nice people. It was a good place. The least thing that I liked least about it was that you have to wind around inside of this maze of streets to find it, and I would have to use my MapQuest stuff to be able to find it every time. The best thing I liked about it is the people were really nice. They were very kind. It was clean. They kept it up really well. It was run like a home and I liked that. I liked that the people seemed to be very honest and upfront. I'm definitely considering it, but I have other places to go look at first. They said they had activities, but it's a very small place. I don't know what kind of activities they do. They have a TV room with a bunch of reclining chairs for everybody to sit in. The other thing that I liked about this place is that they have a lot of help. I've been to places where there was just one person watching everybody, and this place has a lot of people that are there watching these people, and they stay there all night. They have a room upstairs where the caregivers sleep at night, so there are several people there all the time, and I liked that."

"The representative of LifeStream at Youngtown who showed me around their independent living was excellent and very well-informed. He advised me of everything that would be available and the cost, which is a big driving factor for me. I was impressed with the community and liked the way it was set up. Instead of having a big, huge building, when you come out your door in the independent living casitas, you are walking directly outside and not in a hallway. That appealed to me. I thought it was also very well kept up."

"My mom is a resident of MorningStar Senior Living at Golden Ridge. The staff is very considerate and very helpful in everything. They give you a variety of food, but it doesn't taste like anything. It's bland. It's a good atmosphere, very nice, and kept clean. They had a lot of stuff. They do help her out on certain things. She did have a pendant that she pressed, and then somebody would come. The money was decent, and then they raised their rent for the first year, so that's why my mom had to go where she had to go."

I've just been in my room. I'm still putting things away and getting set up, but I haven't gone out and used any of the other facilities yet. I've seen all of them. They look excellent.
