Smooth transition

Four blocks from previous home and son. Your company--A Place for Mom was responsive with good information and options. Hawthorn Court at Ahwahtukee also is responsive, helpful and communicative. I recommend both companies.

Very Happy Move for Mom

We would rate a 5 for all of them. Hawthorne Court has been an excellent location for my mother-in-law. We have seen a great deal of change in her abilities and happiness. The level of stimulation provided at the facility is excellent. The staff is all very friendly and positive. The administration has been hands-on and very welcoming. We are very pleased with her care. She is happy at this Hawthorn.

Not impressed yet

I was hopeful that things would be better than the last place we were at, but the food is absolutely not quality. The care seems to be OK but we have an outside caregiver giving one on one attention for 10 hours a day still.

Hawthorn Court at Ahwatukee review

My loved one is blind so consequently I could not give Activities a high rating since the facility is not equipped to provide the necessary activities to keep him active. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families, but with a warning to maintain realistic expectations.

Thank you for your feedback. I apologize for not meeting your expectations. I would be happy to schedule a time to meet with you, your family, and the director team to discuss how we can better meet the needs of your loved one. This is extremely important to us at Hawthorn Court.

Fun place to live

Hawthorn Court has so many different activities and fun things for their memory care residents. They are Montessori inspired and that really makes a difference to our family. They do outings and give the residents a purpose while still maintaining a safe and secure community.
