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 three deficiencies at its last routine inspection (March 17, 2025, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 61% of similar communities had 2 or fewer at theirs.
6 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2024.
One complaint inspection in the past two years led to a citation, and four others found nothing to cite. 62% of similar communities had 2 or fewer.
No enforcement action by ADHS in the past two years. The same is true of 45% of similar communities.
Cited at more than one inspection since March 2024: Service plans (two inspections), Staffing and staff records (two inspections).

Enforcement actions
What was cited on March 17, 2025, in plain words
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 41% 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?
Service plans
Each resident's written care plan: what help they get, how often, and who gives it. Caregivers must follow the plan, record what they did, and update it when needs change.
The service plan is the day-to-day care a resident receives. Citations here are about plans missing, out of date, or not followed.
Cited at 46% of similar communities in the past two years.
Ask on a tour How often is the care plan reviewed, and can family take part?
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: 159 licensed assisted living centers (11 or more 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: 198 licensed assisted living centers (11 or more 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. A repeat can be a different problem under the same section.
- Counts only: ADHS does not rate or rank homes, and neither do we.
