Busy at Bella Vista

Dad is very happy there. The food is great and lots of activities. His apartment is spacious and well organized. Staff is easy to approach and are helpful and always have answers for him. It's affordable as his social security is enough to cover the rent. It's exactly what we were hoping for him. Thank you so much.

Overall would recommend

The staff and food/ dining are all excellent. Cleanliness and size of apartment are more than adequate. My mother attends few activities because of her dementia, but the staff attempt to include her whenever possible. There is a continuing issue with bugs on the ground floor, because the entrance doors are frequently open for movers and visitors, but there are regular pest control visits included in the apartment rental so I believe management is doing the best they can.

Personable staff

The one thing that sticks out the most, is if they haven't seen you in a couple of days, they'll come and knock on your door to check up on you. I think that it shows that they sincerely care and it is greatly appreciated. The other thing is how friendly they are. They always seem to have a nice smile and a positive attitude. I'm talking mostly about the staff.

My father in law recently became a resident at Bella Vista. They were extremely helpful with the move in and the transition to senior living for my FIL. They seemed genuinely concerned about making him comfortable in his new surroundings. There are a lot of activities and different clubs that residents can sign up for. The property is clean and well maintained.

Exceptional staff, activities and food

My dad was placed in a housing community with the most incredible staff. They were very kind and accommodating with us, and seemingly all love what they do. They have tons of activities and my dad is having a blast. I am so grateful for A Place For Mom for getting me connected in a timely manner!

Happy with Bella Vista

The food is always great; it sometimes takes a long time coming out when the dining room is busy. They occasionally seem understaffed. Activities seem adequate from what I've seen. My mother does not participate much so it's hard to know firsthand. The activities director and other staff are all super friendly and helpful when I am there. Any maintenance issues that have come up are noted and addressed.

Friendly, professional staff and an amazing facility. There is a very inviting breezeway as you enter the dining area where you'll enjoy delicious meals, and great options to help you create the perfect meal for you. Each unit seems to be tastefully decorated, while leaving enough for you to fulfill your creative impulses. Check this place out. It's conveniently located.

Great staff

I would give 5's across the board, although my Mom is in independent living so hasn't been receiving care. We just started medication reminders and that has gone well so far. Staff seems really good about dealing with dementia; that is what decided for me. My only negative comment is that a few times her meals have taken about an hour to arrive from the kitchen. Dont know if that is by design, or because they are short staffed.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Arizona regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Arizona regulations for Assisted Living.
