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 three deficiencies at its last routine inspection (April 17, 2025, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 57% of similar homes had 3 or fewer at theirs.

2 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2024.

One complaint inspection in the past two years led to a citation. 60% of similar homes had none.

ADHS took one enforcement action in the past two years, with civil penalties of $500 in all. 58% of similar homes had none.

Across three inspections since April 2024, the state never cited the same area twice.

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

What was cited on April 17, 2025, in plain words

Admission and residency agreements

What a home must have before a resident moves in, such as a recent health assessment and TB screening, and what the written residency agreement must say.

It is about whether the home knew a resident's needs on day one, and whether the family has the terms in writing.

Cited at 19% of similar homes in the past two years.

Ask on a tour May we read the residency agreement and the move-in assessment before we sign?

Directed care services

Care for residents who cannot direct their own care, such as many people with dementia: closer care planning, weight checks, and exits that are safe for them.

These rules protect residents who cannot speak up for themselves.

Cited at 22% of similar homes in the past two years.

Ask on a tour How do you keep residents with dementia safe without locking them in?

Upkeep and hazards

A clean, safe building: chemicals locked away, hot water at a safe temperature, and nothing in the house that could cause a fall or an injury.

These are the everyday safety checks of the place a resident lives.

Cited at 28% of similar homes in the past two years.

Ask on a tour Where are cleaning products and medicines kept?

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.
  • Counts only: ADHS does not rate or rank homes, and neither do we.
