Tempe, AZ Senior Living Placement Agency

Compassionate Senior Placement Help in the Heart of Tempe

Tempe is one of the most connected communities in the Valley, home to Arizona State University, the shoreline paths of Tempe Town Lake, and the lively stretch of Mill Avenue. It is also a city where generations stay close to one another. Since 2016, Integrity Senior Placement has helped Tempe families navigate one of life's hardest transitions: finding the right senior living arrangement for an aging parent, spouse, relative, or friend. We bring service, honesty, compassion, and respect to every conversation, we answer right away seven days a week, and our guidance never costs your family a penny. A decision this important should not be made alone, and in Tempe, it does not have to be.

Our specialists take the time to understand your loved one's care needs, daily routines, and personality before recommending a single option. Then we walk beside you, touring communities, asking the hard questions, and negotiating on your behalf, until your loved one is settled somewhere they can truly thrive.

Why Families Choose Tempe for Senior Living

Few cities in Arizona make it easier for families to stay connected. Tempe sits at the center of the East Valley, just minutes from Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, and Scottsdale, so a move here keeps Sunday dinners, grandkids' ballgames, and spur-of-the-moment visits part of everyday life. Many of the families we serve choose Tempe precisely because their children and grandchildren live nearby. Whether your loved one has called Tempe home for decades or is relocating to be closer to family, we know the assisted living communities, memory care settings, care homes, and in-home providers that serve this area, and we will match you with the options that genuinely fit your loved one's needs, preferences, and budget.

What Services Do We Offer in Tempe?

No two seniors are alike, and no two placements should be either. Integrity Senior Placement offers a full range of free placement services to seniors throughout Tempe and the surrounding East Valley, including:

What to Consider When Choosing Care in Tempe

Choosing senior living is rarely just about a building. It is about the level of care your loved one needs today and may need later, how close they want to stay to family and familiar routines, and what their budget can realistically support. A larger assisted living community may offer more amenities and on-site activities, while a smaller residential care home can feel more intimate and personal, and memory care or in-home support may be the right answer depending on the situation. These are exactly the trade-offs we help families think through, and when a question touches on care needs we can draw on our consulting-physician network for general, non-diagnostic guidance. Because Tempe sits at the center of the East Valley, you also have strong options just minutes away in Mesa, Chandler, and Scottsdale, so if the perfect fit happens to be a short drive away, you will not have to compromise on quality to stay close. We will walk you through every consideration honestly, and there is never any cost or pressure.

Common questions

Questions families in Tempe ask us

What does it cost to work with Integrity Senior Placement in Tempe?
Nothing. Our guidance is free to every family in Tempe, with no obligation. We are paid through contracts we hold with the senior care communities, assisted living communities, memory care communities, and group homes we work with, and the price we negotiate does not change what you pay for your loved one. Arizona also requires us to give every client a disclosure explaining how we are paid.
Do you just send a list of Tempe communities and disappear?
No, a list is where our work starts rather than where it ends. Every search begins with a free personal assessment, and only then do we narrow the field to the Tempe area settings that genuinely fit. We tour those communities with you, ask the hard questions on your behalf, and negotiate pricing so your family's resources go further. After the move we visit shortly afterward and again a few weeks later, to confirm the new home is delivering what it promised.
How fast can you help if my parent in Tempe is being discharged from the hospital?
Often within days, and sometimes within hours. When a hospital discharge or another sudden change puts your family on a deadline, we expedite the placement process rather than start it from nothing, because we already know the communities in and around Tempe. Medicare's skilled rehab coverage is time limited and is not built for long term care, so we help you find the right assisted living or memory care quickly and plan how the ongoing care will be paid for. We answer right away, seven days a week.
How can I check that the Tempe communities you recommend are any good?
Check us, then check them, and tour before you decide anything. Every home we recommend near Tempe is state licensed and has passed our own on-site inspection and background checks, and we only recommend places we would be comfortable living in ourselves. We are a 5 star Google rated, A+ BBB rated agency, fingerprint cleared and fully insured, and our reviews are public on Google, Yelp, the BBB, and NiceJob. We also walk the shortlist with you, so you meet the caregivers and talk to residents before anyone signs anything.
What if we cannot afford assisted living in Tempe?
Tell us the budget at the start, because it shapes the search rather than ending it. Cost in Tempe turns on the level of care and the setting, and a group home with a semi private room starts lower than a larger community. We also check what your family may qualify for, including ALTCS, Arizona's Medicaid long term care program, and VA Aid and Attendance for wartime veterans and surviving spouses. A licensed social worker (LMSW) on our care team reviews that with you at no cost.
Tempe has only one general hospital. What happens if my father falls and ends up in an emergency room?
The hospital that calls you may not be in Tempe at all. HonorHealth Tempe Medical Center on South Mill Avenue is the city's only general hospital, and no Tempe facility appears on Arizona's state designated trauma center list, so a serious fall often means Banner Desert in Mesa or Chandler Regional in Chandler, both Level I trauma centers. We know the communities and care homes on both sides of those city lines, so where the ambulance went does not decide where your father lives next.
Can my mother stay in Tempe and still get around after she stops driving?
Tempe is one of the easier Valley cities for that. The city's Orbit shuttle is free public transportation through Tempe neighborhoods, Valley Metro gives a reduced fare to riders 65 and older, and Valley Metro Ride Choice offers discounted rides to qualified older adults in Tempe. Paratransit serves the East Valley for riders with an ADA certification. We ask how your mother gets to her doctor, the store, and church before we recommend anywhere.
Tempe is landlocked and built out. Does that limit our options?
It changes how you should search more than it limits what you will find. Tempe covers about 40 square miles of land and is built out to its borders, pressed up against Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler and Scottsdale. Search by who will visit rather than by the city line, and the field widens without getting farther away.
What will my father actually do all day in Tempe?
Ask that before you tour anything, because a routine is what makes a move stick. Tempe runs senior and multigenerational centers at Escalante on East Orange Street, North Tempe on North Bridalwreath Street, and Pyle Adult Recreation Center on East Southern Avenue, with weekday meals, classes, and social programs. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at ASU offers low cost classes for adults 50 and over, some on Saturdays at the Tempe Public Library. We build those habits into the personal assessment.

What families say

I just had the most amazing experience with this company!! David spent time on the phone, listening to our needs, and then toured us on places that fit perfectly. I feel so blessed to have found the home my mom is in & the great care she is receiving!! Mom is thriving!
Shari C.
Great communication and professionalism with family and my mother. David was very supportive and helpful with the needs addressed and found a safe, clean and inviting home close to family.
Mark F. · April 2024
Transitioning a loved one to senior care is more than difficult. There are both emotional components and a mountain of details that seemed daunting at first glance. David made the entire process straight forward with an advocate role in finding a place that fit our needs. The home he found for our loved one is fantastic! Thank You!!
Brian T. · August 2021
Great experience from day one. Reina and David took the time to listen to our situation and found the best assisted living community for a family member. Communication and follow up is excellent. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone.

Guidance, every step

We are here to help.

As your loved one ages and requires special care, it can be hard to know who to turn to. Integrity Senior Placement is here to guide you every step of the way.

What people are saying

Integrity Placement exceeded our expectations. We called with an urgent need to relocate our 88 year old mother with advanced Parkinson's disease, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, and a heart condition to a safe, capable and conducive environment. Having changed ownership and management, her then current facility had dramatically declined, replaced administration with unethical leadership, and become an elder-care warehouse. David listened to our list of needs, our experiences, and our hopes. Within a week Integrity Placement had researched potential fits, contacted AND prepared several to address our needs, guided us through on-site reviews, and helped us walk through the decision process. Every alternative we visited was exceptional and prepared to address our specific financial and medical needs. We found a match a could not be happier or more relieved.
Steven F.Phoenix Arizona, Memory Care Placement
David is amazing to work with. He made a huge difference in a very difficult time for our family. We were amazed at his efficiency in finding options for care homes and couldn't have found such a wonderful option without his guidance. But most of all, his kindness and warmth was everything to us. We will remain forever grateful.
Anna & Jeff KPhoenix, Arizona Assisted Living Placement
Reina is truly our guardian angel. Fortunately, she was referred to me to help find a placement for my brother who was being discharged from a north Scottsdale facility at a moments notice. Having to deal with a facility and insurance who don't have your loved ones best interest at heart is maddening. I was panicked. Reina calmed my fears and was instrumental in finding a wonderful placement for Joe. She stayed connected with me during the entire process and continues to be a part of our lives. I appreciate her and the value of Integrity Placement and know this transition went as smoothly as it did because of Reina. Her dedication to her clients and families, her knowledge, honesty, patience, and professionalism are truly incredible. I can't thank Reina enough for how much she helped our family.
Colleen DNorth Scottsdale, Arizona Senior Placement
The folks at Integrity Placement can be described in one word, AMAZING! They made an extremely difficult and overwhelming situation very easy for our family. We had to place our mom in an assisted living situation very quickly. Both David and Reina were awesome, extremely responsive and compassionate. David helped us find a place that is a wonderful new home for our mom. We would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone!!
Toni MPhoenix, AZ Assisted Living Placement
Reina from Integrity Placement was excellent in guiding us through the process of appropriately placing our loved one in assisted living. She worked closely with the centers we toured, was punctual and valued our time commitments. Throughout this process she was efficient, accessible and professional. She truly cares about her clients and is very supportive. Thank you Reina!
