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 11 deficiencies at its last routine inspection (June 11, 2026, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 2 or fewer at theirs.

9 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2025.

Two 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 two enforcement actions in the past two years, with civil penalties of $1,500 in all. 44% of similar communities had none.

Cited at more than one inspection since October 2023: Staffing and staff records (three inspections), Building and rooms (two inspections), Changes to the building (two inspections), and four other areas.

ADHS accepted its plan of correction for 10 of the 20 deficiencies cited in the past two years. Care Check lists the rest as: POC Submitted (7), POC Rejected (3).

What was cited on June 11, 2026, in plain words

Fall prevention training

A state law that requires every staff member to be trained in preventing falls and in helping a resident who has fallen.

Falls are a leading cause of injury in older adults, so this training matters for nearly every resident.

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

Ask on a tour What fall training do caregivers get, and how often is it refreshed?

Changes to the building

ADHS approval before a home changes its building or the services it is licensed for.

It makes sure the building still meets the rules after a change.

Cited at 1% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour Has the building or the license changed recently?

Tuberculosis screening

TB screening for staff and residents, and yearly TB training for staff.

It is a basic infection control rule in a shared home.

Cited at 15% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour How do you screen new staff and residents for TB?

Staffing and staff records

Caregiver qualifications and records: skills checked before working alone, training, CPR and first aid cards, TB screening and fingerprint clearance on file.

It is about whether the people giving care have been trained and checked, and whether the home can prove it.

Cited at 44% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour How are new caregivers trained, and how long before they work a shift alone?

Resident rights

Dignity and privacy, protection of a resident's money and belongings, and a written copy of their rights at move-in.

These rules protect how a resident is treated as a person, not only the care they receive.

Cited at 13% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour How do residents or families raise a complaint, and who answers it?

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 34% of similar communities in the past two years.

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

Building and rooms

The building itself: bedrooms (no more than two people, privacy), bathrooms, clean linen, and pool safety where there is a pool.

It is about a resident's own room and the shared spaces they use every day.

Cited at 3% of similar communities in the past two years.

Ask on a tour Who else would share the room, and how is privacy 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: 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.
  • POC is a plan of correction. IDR is an informal dispute of a citation.
  • Counts only: ADHS does not rate or rank homes, and neither do we.
