Top 10 Best Assisted Living Communities Near Phoenix, AZ

There’s no shame in admitting that you need a little extra help, even on a full-time basis! While some older adults might be able to continue living at home, albeit with a caregiver or loved one, some might be a better fit for an assisted living facility. If you’re one such older adult, especially one who lives in Phoenix, you’ve come to the right place! We’ve done our research and found the highest-rated assisted living facilities near you!

Our research process:

1. We start where it counts: by visiting each facility’s website and reading through all the available information (like customer testimonials, FAQ pages, photo galleries, and more)! We also note all the awards each facility has won and the accreditations they’ve earned.
2. Next, we read real customer reviews on platforms like Google and Yelp. We don’t just read the positive reviews. We read the negative ones, too, and like to see how/if the facility responded!
3. And finally, we check each facility’s social media presence. AKA, if they have a Facebook or Instagram, we’re sure to dig through those, too!

^{_{Author’s note: While we LOVE doing research and helping seniors, we also strongly encourage all our readers to do their own research and visit each of these communities in person. Testimonials and reviews paint only half of the picture. So, schedule an in-person visit if possible. Take your time and ask yourself some important questions. Does the facility seem safe? Clean? Welcoming? Is the staff kind and professional? Are they able to answer all your questions, and do they seem happy or reluctant to do so? Do the residents seem happy and healthy? Does the facility offer all the services and amenities that would make your life there comfortable? In the end, if you don’t think a certain assisted living facility is the right fit for you, listen to your gut! It knows better than any customer testimonial or five-star review!}}
