Sky Ridge Senior Living in Gilbert, Arizona, offers a variety of living options for older adults, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing, all within a two-story building set on landscaped grounds with walking paths, courtyards, and patios, and there's always plenty of places to sit outside like in the large patio with comfortable seats or the putting green near the desert plants, and the grounds feel both safe and peaceful whether someone wants to relax alone or stroll with pets. Residents can choose from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, all with modern features like high ceilings, wood-style floors, bright natural light, and, in many, a patio or balcony, plus they include spacious kitchens and laundry, so folks can live comfortably and go about their routines, and all apartments are pet-friendly if someone wants to bring along a companion animal. The facility provides a range of care, from help with daily activities in Assisted Living-like bathing, dressing, and medication reminders-to more complex needs in Memory Care, where staff focus on safety and offer tailored support for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, with secured areas and staff close by, plus private or shared memory care suites to suit different needs.
People who live here can use shared spaces like cozy living rooms with fireplaces, sunny courtyards, arts and crafts centers, common areas, and bistros, and there are fitness and recreation spots along with restaurant-style dining rooms serving daily chef-prepared meals that focus on nutrition and enjoyment. There's a regular calendar of activities, from creative projects and fitness classes to shopping trips, museum visits, and strolls in the park, so there's always something social, and community staff organize both onsite events and outings to keep everyone active and connected, with devotional services available for spiritual needs and plenty of chances for fun with neighbors. Residents have access to onsite services like a full-service salon and spa, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance, and scheduled rides to appointments or errands, and the caring team members stay focused on helping people enjoy life, offering care based on each person's needs and checking up daily to make sure plans stay current, whether someone's staying short-term for respite care or making a permanent home. Staff aim to promote independence if possible, but they're trained and ready to support those who need more help, and there's always an emphasis on respect, safety, and kindness in the way everyone relates to each other, encouraging connections and shared activities.
Sky Ridge has information and resources to help residents or their families learn about different ways to pay for care, such as using house sales, insurance, or veterans benefits, and there's guidance about Medicare, Medicaid, tax benefits, and planning tools, so families can make informed choices about what suits them. The whole community design tries to balance resort-style comfort with ease of access, offering both privacy and social opportunities, and the overall atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, with a focus on everyone's well-being and enjoyment at each stage of aging.
