Arizona state record

What the inspections show

In Arizona, the Department of Health Services licenses assisted living homes and communities, inspects them and looks into complaints. Its record for each one is public on AZ Care Check (this home's record, opens in a new tab).

The state cited four deficiencies at its last routine inspection (March 28, 2025, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 2 or fewer at theirs.

One complaint inspection in the past two years led to a citation, and two others found nothing to cite. 63% of similar communities had 2 or fewer.

No enforcement action by ADHS in the past two years. The same is true of 44% of similar communities.

Across four inspections since March 2025, the state never cited the same area twice.

ADHS accepted its plan to correct each of the 4 deficiencies cited in the past two years.

Enforcement actions

AZ Care Check has no enforcement actions on file for this home.

What was cited on March 28, 2025, in plain words

Administration

The duties of the owner and manager: written policies, a caregiver in charge on site at all times, background checks, and telling ADHS about changes such as a new manager.

It is about who is accountable for care at any hour and whether the home runs by its own written rules.

Cited at 55% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour Who is in charge when the manager is not here, and how do I reach them?

Staffing and staff records

Caregiver qualifications and records: skills checked before working alone, training, CPR and first aid cards, TB screening and fingerprint clearance on file.

It is about whether the people giving care have been trained and checked, and whether the home can prove it.

Cited at 44% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour How are new caregivers trained, and how long before they work a shift alone?

Admission and residency agreements

What a home must have before a resident moves in, such as a recent health assessment and TB screening, and what the written residency agreement must say.

It is about whether the home knew a resident's needs on day one, and whether the family has the terms in writing.

Cited at 32% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour May we read the residency agreement and the move-in assessment before we sign?

Emergency and safety

Disaster and evacuation drills, first aid supplies, and what staff must do and record after a resident's accident or injury.

It is about whether staff know what to do in an emergency, and whether the family hears about an injury.

Cited at 39% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour When was the last fire drill, and how would you tell me if my parent were hurt?

These explain the rule, not what happened. The state's own report is on AZ Care Check.

How the figures above are counted

  • Routine figures: 63 licensed assisted living centers with 50 to 99 beds in the Phoenix and Tucson areas whose last routine inspection, between September 2024 and September 2026, also looked into a complaint.
  • Complaint and enforcement figures: 76 licensed assisted living centers with 50 to 99 beds in the Phoenix and Tucson areas licensed for the whole period, September 2024 to September 2026.
  • A complaint inspection counts here when it cited at least one deficiency.
  • Most ADHS enforcement actions are civil penalties (fines).
  • An area is one section of Arizona's assisted living rules, such as Medication or Service plans.
  • Counts only: ADHS does not rate or rank homes, and neither do we.
