About Gentle Guardian Senior Living

Gentle Guardian Senior Living calls itself a residential care home in Scottsdale, Arizona, where every resident is treated like family.

The home is newly licensed, so it is early days for its state record.

AZ Care Check lists three service types here (directed care, personal care and supervisory care), and the directed care entry shows room for 10 residents.

Ask who works at night and how long the caregivers have been there. You cannot tell that from a photo, so ask in person.
