"I toured The Hacienda at the River. The atmosphere, it's beautiful. The staff was good. The person who I worked with listened to me and everything I had to say, and she answered all my questions really well. It was just a pleasant experience. Each area has a kitchen and it was like going to a hotel. It's very clean and it's nicely decorated. There's a garden, and it's like going on vacation."

"My mother is in Avista Tucson. They said she stopped yelling at people and she's eating better. Right now she's in assisted living level three. Everybody there is so polite and so helpful. I had some things I couldn't get together, they put them together for me. They go out of their way to help you with your parent. I like their attitude. There are so many activities for her to do if she ever leaves her room, but if she doesn't, they bring her meals. She's just happy, I guess, now because they said she's eating more when she was barely eating. After the first week, she stopped yelling at people who would come into her room because they checked on her every two hours. She could have her cat there, but she didn't think it was hers, so I had to take the cat back home. They have a little gambling area. They can play cards. They have a little slot machine. They have a little movie theater with big recliners you can sit in. They have their little restaurant or cafeteria where everybody can go to eat if they choose to. They had singers one day I was there with my mom when I brought her there. They have karaoke. They have all kinds of different things and they're always trying to get you involved. Even though you don't want to go, they still come and ask to see if you want to. They encourage you to get out and be more social. If you want to go outside, you can go outside. Other people I've seen go outside. She has a studio apartment. They pretty much have the freedom to do what they want. Memory care has a locked door because people forget, but they still come out and do the activities. They get them together as a group, take them out, and let them be involved in the activities. She is eating more and she's very picky. I've seen the food and it looks nice. The first day she got there, they brought her a plate and I said she loves ham sandwiches, so they gave her a ham sandwich. They had a Boston cream pie. She ate it because she loves Boston cream pie and it's been ages since she's had one and they said, "OK, if we ever have Boston cream pie, we'll make sure we get it on her plate so that she gets it for her meals." They're very accommodating. They're all very friendly and knowledgeable. It was reasonable for everything you were getting. It's not that big of a jump if she needs memory care. They have an onsite doctor. I've seen them making repairs. All the time somebody is working on stuff, so they keep that place up. They're working on the floor and that's important, you don't want people falling. I saw the residents running around. I saw the guys that were in charge. The guy in charge of all the maintenance people set up my mom's TV for us and got one of his guys to put her bookcase together for us."

"The units were beautiful with a lot of natural light, in fact, they were the best we've seen. We had lunch in the dining room. The food was excellent. We did notice a lot of interesting conversations going on around us. Everyone seemed to enjoy being there.There's a great vibe. The common areas were very nice. I specifically noticed the furnishings. In the common areas appeared to be very new, even though the facility itself isn't, but it is kept up extremely well. Also, with a lot of high ceilings and large windows, which you don't often find in assisted living facilities. We spoke with several of the employees they were all pleasant and all seemed to enjoy being there. They were able to answer any question that we asked our tour guide. Vicki, it was really great. She was very patient with us and answered all of our questions, and we give this whole experience. an A++!"

"I have chosen Woodland Palms Memory Care for my husband. Everything that I saw was clean. There were still some residents in the dining area still having lunch, so naturally, there's going to be still food on the table and stuff like that, but overall, it was very clean. They showed me the private rooms and I could even take his old furniture in and everything. I was pleased with that. I interacted mostly with Meredith, who took me on the tour. She was very informative. She answered all the questions that I had about the facility. She was very knowledgeable. I met a staffer, and I have also met with the lady who is in charge of the total facility and she was very informative. She told me about how she could assist me in the process of actually getting him placed possibly before all the paperwork is finished."

"Oak Haven Assisted Living was wonderful. I just loved this place and my husband can hardly wait to move in. He will have his own room and they're going to allow him to bring a small refrigerator to put in his room so he could have his snacks in there. It's very homey and it has a very loving and warm feeling to it. The staff seemed very interested in learning about my husband and what he likes. They did in-depth questions about how best they can care for him and it made me feel confident that they care about him. I was there while other people were eating, and everybody looked happy."

"The Ranch Estates of Tucson was a great facility. It was very clean. The person who took me on the tour was very knowledgeable. She introduced me to quite a few staff. She introduced me to the nurse who was in charge of the memory care unit. She was very nice. I got to see that particular unit and see how it's set up and everything. It was excellent. I had lunch with the lady who took me on the tour. The only drawback that I have about that facility is its way up north. It took me probably half an hour or more to get there. I wanted something kind of central to where we already live. The food was very good. She allowed me to choose from the menu that they had for that particular day at lunchtime. The cleanliness was great. Each area that I visited was very clean. They have a courtyard, which amazed me that residents will be allowed to go outside and sit up on the trees and that kind of thing."

"Brookdale Oro Valley was clean. It looked like they kept their residents engaged. It was nice. I was looking for a room where both of my parents can be together, so I guess that's a shared room. I saw them exercising when we first went in. Some of them were doing it in the chair and some of them were standing. Later on when we were done walking through the rooms and everything, I saw a group playing a virtual video game. They were playing Price is Right. I'm not sure if they have a special place for visiting, but they had a place where families could come and eat separate from everyone else."

"My husband is at Catalina Springs. It is a newer facility. They do things for memory care every day. We picked it because it seemed fresh and clean, and the people were more alert looking. It's also close to the house. I like the people who run it. They were very knowledgeable and very caring people. My husband walks around at night. The place is circular, so they're able to walk around. They also have some animals, like kittens. Arnold doesn't necessarily take care of kitten, but it's nice to see animals around. The side where Arnold's on has about 13 men, and everybody gets along really well. If Arnold can't eat very well, one of the caregivers will help him. We narrowed down our choices to two facilities, and they were the best. "

"Park Senior Villas - Houghton had kind of a villa-looking thing and then you go inside the building and they had individual rooms. They had double rooms if you wanted a roommate. They had some activities. I didn't see as much going on or see the people running around as I did at the other place, but it was very nicely kept up. The people were nice. A few days later, I came back, I even told them that I had decided on the other place. They still said, "Come and get that desk." They got the desk out and told me where is the closest was to get it. They're very nice there. The place was clean. I checked out both assisted living, plus memory care. Based on how clean they were and how nice I thought it was, it's a five. I liked the layout. I thought it was convenient. They have a little closed-in patio area. It's all on one level. One gentleman was sitting out there when we were there. When I went back and picked up the desk, I saw more people. It could have been the time of day and maybe people were in activities when I was there visiting. I saw their little cafeteria area for that building and mom can have her cat there. The staff I saw was very nice and very obliging because when I came and got the desk, one girl helped me bring it out to my car. She was very polite and very nice."

"My brother spent the last month of his life at Plum Tree House (one of the Groves 6 houses), and for all of our family, it was by far the most positive experience of the last 6 months of his illness. The staff was so kind and went out of their way to make both my brother and I feel welcome and cared for, right from the first day. The environment is very cozy and home-like, and Dave felt comfortable right away ~ which certainly isn't something I can say about other places he's been. I would most definitely recommend the Groves to anyone. Thanks so much, all of you, who were there for Dave on his final Journey. You guys are the best!"

When trying to decide how to pay for memory care, one of the first questions that comes up is "How much does it cost?" With the impact of inflation, it's more important than ever to have up-to-date information when making a financial plan for senior living. To help shed light on real senior living prices, Caring.com has compiled proprietary cost data from its network of more than 75,000 senior living providers to provide insight into the average cost of memory care in Tucson and 18 other cities in Arizona.
In Tucson there are options for seniors who need financial assistance paying for Memory Care. For more information about other options, who qualifies, and how to apply, Memory Care in Arizona page.

With current rates of inflation, memory care costs have risen steadily in Tucson. While average care costs were $3,787 in 2022, that number rose nearly 10% to $4,181 in 2023. Rates are expected to rise another 7.5% by 2024. Despite these rising costs, Tucson is still less expensive than the national median ($5,369) and the Arizona state average ($5,401). It's also one of the most affordable cities for memory care in southern Arizona, with rates that are over $2,500 lower than those in Phoenix and $3,000 less than Scottsdale.
| Location | 2022 Cost (Historical) | 2023 Cost (Current) | 2024 Cost (Estimated) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tucson | $3,787 | $4,181 | $4,510 |
| U.S. Average | $4,863 | $5,369 | $5,792 |

Despite having higher levels of care 24/7, memory care is still more affordable than most senior living facilities in Tucson. Only assisted living, at $4,050, and adult day care, at $2,058 without room and board, offer senior care for less money. Homebound seniors in the early stages of cognitive decline can expect to pay around $5,434 for homemaker services and an additional $48 per month for the included light medical support of a home health aide. Those who require nursing home care can expect to pay around $6,601 for a semiprivate room or $8,182 if they choose a private one.
