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 one deficiency at its last routine inspection (July 7, 2026, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 1 or fewer at theirs.

2 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2025.

Two complaint inspections in the past two years led to a citation, and two others found nothing to cite. 50% of similar communities had 2 or fewer.

ADHS took one enforcement action in the past two years, with civil penalties of $250 in all. 33% of similar communities had none.

Cited at more than one inspection since February 2024: Staffing and staff records (three inspections), Administration (two inspections), Medication (two inspections), and one other area.

ADHS accepted its plan to correct each of the 3 deficiencies cited in the past two years.

What was cited on July 7, 2026, 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 46% 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?

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.
