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 four deficiencies at its last routine inspection (June 30, 2026, a visit that also looked into a complaint). 55% of similar communities had 1 or fewer at theirs.
2 deficiencies cited at the routine inspection before it, in 2025.
Three complaint inspections in the past two years led to a citation, and three others found nothing to cite.
ADHS took one enforcement action in the past two years, with civil penalties of $1,000 in all.
Cited at more than one inspection since October 2023: Admission and residency agreements (two inspections), Service plans (two inspections).
ADHS accepted its plan of correction for 3 of the 7 deficiencies cited in the past two years. Care Check lists the rest as: IDR Rejected (4).

Enforcement actions
September 16, 2026
AZ Care Check record of the enforcement action on September 16, 2026, opens in a new tab
What was cited on June 30, 2026, in plain words
Administration
The duties of the owner and manager: written policies, a caregiver in charge on site at all times, background checks, and telling ADHS about changes such as a new manager.
It is about who is accountable for care at any hour and whether the home runs by its own written rules.
Cited at 50% of similar communities in the past two years.
Ask on a tour Who is in charge when the manager is not here, and how do I reach them?
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 46% 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?
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 Citations here are about plans missing, out of date, or not followed.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 50% of similar communities in the past two years.
Ask on a tour How often is the care plan reviewed, and can family take part?
Memory care
Rules added in 2025 for homes that offer memory care: dementia training hours for staff, written plans to prevent wandering, and assessments for each memory care resident.
They apply to residents living with dementia in a memory care setting.
Cited at 7% of similar communities in the past two years.
Ask on a tour How many hours of dementia training has each caregiver had this year?
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: 72 licensed assisted living centers with 100 or more 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. 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.
