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 12 deficiencies at its last routine inspection (April 3, 2025, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 1 or fewer at theirs.

9 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2023.

Three complaint inspections in the past two years led to a citation. 50% of similar communities had 2 or fewer.

ADHS took one enforcement action in the past two years, with civil penalties of $2,750 in all. 33% of similar communities had none.

Cited at more than one inspection since October 2023: Administration (four inspections), Emergency and safety (three inspections), Service plans (three inspections), and four other areas.

ADHS accepted its plan to correct each of the 14 deficiencies cited in the past two years.

What was cited on June 24, 2025, in plain words

Emergency responder forms

A state law that requires a standard form for each resident, given to paramedics in an emergency: medicines, contacts, and care wishes.

It means paramedics get the facts they need quickly if a resident must go to the hospital.

Cited at 26% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour Is the emergency form for each resident kept up to date? Where is it kept?

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: 72 licensed assisted living centers with 100 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: 84 licensed assisted living centers with 100 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.
