About Heritage Lane Behavioral - West

Heritage Lane Behavioral - West operates as an assisted living center in Mesa, licensed by ADHS at the personal care level, which covers help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, plus medication administration.

According to the community's website, the center is built as two single story buildings with 57 private suites, and it specializes in caring for residents whose behavioral issues are related to specific mental health diagnoses. The same website states that admission criteria exclude a primary diagnosis of dementia or Alzheimer's disease and a recent history of drug or alcohol abuse, since the program requires residents to be able to participate in their own care planning.

The company also says all employees complete a minimum of 10 hours of behavior training each year, that caregivers are not assigned other duties such as cooking, and that the center does not use agency or registry staff. Meals are cooked from raw ingredients rather than pre-processed foods, and a weekly resident Food Council votes on the menu. Activities run seven days a week until as late as 7:00 pm and include morning movement sessions designed by a licensed physical therapist, evening activities, three weekly community outings and a yearly Bucket List Activity.

The company says the center accepts private pay, and it is listed in the ALTCS networks of: UnitedHealthcare Community Plan (ALTCS) (list dated July 28, 2025).
