About Avana Knight Lane

ADHS lists it as a home licensed at the directed care level, the highest of the three Arizona assisted living care levels, meaning it is licensed to care for residents who cannot direct their own care because of a cognitive impairment. The home has 10 private suites, each with a private bathroom, and the company advertises a 1:5 caregiver to resident ratio with staff awake through the night.

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