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