Parkinson’s Care
Partnered with a Parkinson’s physician. Integrity Senior Placement works with a consulting physician who specializes in Parkinson’s disease, memory loss, and neurological movement conditions. Their expertise shapes how we read each family’s situation and which communities we recommend, so we can match your loved one with partner communities genuinely equipped to support them.
Caring for a loved one with Parkinson’s
Caring for an aging loved one with Parkinson’s disease presents unique, evolving challenges. As a progressive condition, Parkinson’s affects movement, balance, speech, and, over time, cognition, and the level of care needed grows alongside it. The combination of mobility decline, fall risk, strict medication timing, and eventual cognitive changes is more than most families can manage safely at home. With Parkinson’s diagnoses rising across Arizona, more and more Phoenix caregivers are turning to professionals who understand the disease and the specialized communities equipped to care for it.
What does Parkinson’s care look like?
Quality Parkinson’s care goes beyond standard assisted living. The communities we recommend in the Phoenix metropolitan area are equipped to provide:
- Staff trained in mobility support and fall prevention, the leading safety risk in Parkinson’s.
- Strict, on-time medication management, which is critical because late Parkinson’s medication can cause rapid decline.
- Access to physical, occupational, and speech therapy to preserve function and independence.
- Nutrition and swallowing support as the disease advances.
- Calm, easy-to-navigate environments that reduce fall hazards and confusion.
Finding Parkinson’s care in Phoenix
Before you take on the overwhelming task of researching facilities, talk with the specialists at Integrity Senior Placement, whose Parkinson’s recommendations are guided by our consulting physician. We assess where your loved one is today and where their care is headed, then match them to thoroughly vetted partner communities that can support the full progression of Parkinson’s, so you’re not forced to move them again as needs increase. Because Parkinson’s so often involves memory and cognitive changes, we’ll also make sure the right communities can support those needs. See our Memory Care services. Our consulting physician’s practice also addresses stroke patients, whose mobility and recovery needs often overlap with Parkinson’s; if your family is navigating a stroke, see our Stroke & Dementia Care Homes services. You are not alone in this journey, and our help is always free to your family.

What families say
I worked with David Pionteck to help me find a perfect place for my brother who has parkinsons and is moving to Scottsdale from New Jersey. David is professional, knowledgeable and really fun to be around. He set all the appointments to look at facilities and group homes and always met me with a smile. He was great during this stressful time. We found a wonderful group home.
I am so thankful that David Pointer was referred to me! David was professional, kind, and listened to my requirements for my Aunts group home. He found the perfect home for my Aunt. I would trust David with any of my future needs for a family member.
Reina was beyond helpful in finding an amazing care home for my parter after he suffered a stroke. It seemed as though everything was such a daunting task as far as trying to figure out my next steps. She was there to help me get through it. I am so grateful for everything Reina did to help.
We, my brother, sister and I, had the pleasure of working Reina, Sr Living Specialist, to help us find the perfect place for our mother. She was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. We would strongly recommend her to anyone that must look for a placement for their relative.
