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 two deficiencies at its last routine inspection (February 10, 2026, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 2 or fewer at theirs.
3 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2024.
Six complaint inspections in the past two years led to a citation, and one other found nothing to cite. 63% of similar communities had 2 or fewer.
ADHS took one enforcement action in the past two years, with civil penalties of $25,000 in all. 44% of similar communities had none.
Cited at more than one inspection since March 2024: Resident rights (four inspections), Staffing and staff records (three inspections), Administration (two inspections), and four other areas.
ADHS accepted its plan to correct each of the 25 deficiencies cited in the past two years.

What was cited on July 30, 2026, in plain words
Service plans
Each resident's written care plan: what help they get, how often, and who gives it. Caregivers must follow the plan, record what they did, and update it when needs change.
The service plan is the day-to-day care a resident receives. Citations here are about plans missing, out of date, or not followed.
Cited at 48% of similar communities in the past two years.
Ask on a tour How often is the care plan reviewed, and can family take part?
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: 63 licensed assisted living centers with 50 to 99 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: 76 licensed assisted living centers with 50 to 99 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.
