caring staff, would recommend

My mom had just become fully blind and was in an emotional state. Our choice was due to their lenient policy of allowing her to eat in her room with her food delivered as well as encouraging her to press her call button as often as she likes without feeling badly. She did have a bump in the first month with cold food but that was rectified when brought to their attention. Her 1 bedroom is spacious and comfortable with 2 heating/cooling systems. She is showered in the "spa" due to her need for assistance. The staff

Avista Tucson Experience

Initially our overall experience was good, but then my mom began getting up out of bed frequently and was a fall risk. I talked to the director and staff repeatedly about it and they continually left her bed alarm off. She had two falls within two days, the second time she broke her hip. They called me and told me she fell but that she was fine. When I came to check on her a few hours later I could see that one leg was shorter and rotated outward, indicating a hip fracture. She had hip surgery, was discharged back

Loved one is happy

The price and location were 2 big factors. The facility has a vibe that doesn't say hospital or nursing home. It has a home-like feeling that we felt would make the FIL more comfortable. They take care of my father in law and he seems happy. I wish communication was a bit more complete.

A warm and caring place to call home

You were always greeted warmly, and the facility was very welcoming and homey. The staff was friendly. In the memory care unit, the caregivers were truly caring and took the time to get to know our mother. They would tell us stories that she shared with them.
