One complaint inspection since June 2025 led to a citation, and one other found nothing to cite.

What was cited on June 26, 2026, in plain words
Emergency and safety
Disaster and evacuation drills, first aid supplies, and what staff must do and record after a resident's accident or injury.
It is about whether staff know what to do in an emergency, and whether the family hears about an injury.
Cited at 19% of similar homes in the past two years.
Ask on a tour When was the last fire drill, and how would you tell me if my parent were hurt?
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.
- 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.
