Memory Care
After thoughtfully searching for home for my mom I found carefree Assisted living. I felt welcome as soon as I walked in. The owner was there to greet me and my mom. The staff was warm and welcoming. I could see daily activities going on from yoga to someone helping chop veggies to someone also getting her hair done. They have a salon and a gym along with individual rooms. I loved the space and feel of just being home. So did my mom. I’m so happy I found this place.
Read moreWe chose Avamere at Phoenix mainly because of the staff members, they seemed to be very friendly and caring and oriented towards the residents. The room sizes at the facility are super nice, we have the 2 bedroom and it is very spacious with lots of storage space. Overall, I would recommend Avamere to other families looking.
Read moreWe recently relocated my mother to Carefree Assisted Living ( Doc's Place ) which is a beautiful group home in a quiet desert setting and would like to share our thoughts with anyone whose loved one needs assistance. They maintain a caring and understanding staff that is willing to work with individual residents and family needs to make sure your loved one receives the best of care. Meals are prepared that appeal to sight, taste and nutrition. Activities are planned to be enjoyed by each individual resident. It is obvious that the staff and Doc's Place truly care and that it is not just a job.
