Enforcement actions
January 8, 2024
AZ Care Check record of the enforcement action on January 8, 2024, opens in a new tab
What was cited on July 2, 2026, in plain words
Tuberculosis screening
TB screening for staff and residents, and yearly TB training for staff.
It is a basic infection control rule in a shared home.
Cited at 13% of similar homes in the past two years.
Ask on a tour How do you screen new staff and residents for TB?
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 19% of similar homes 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: 383 licensed assisted living homes with 6 to 10 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: 982 licensed assisted living homes with 6 to 10 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.
