Villas At Green Valley - Villa B sits in Green Valley, Arizona, as part of a neighborhood of assisted living homes that aren't too big, only holding about 10 private suites in each 6,000 square foot home, and every suite has its own heating and cooling, which really comes in handy during those summer months. Residents get to enjoy meals together in a dining room, and the staff pays attention to special diets, so folks with diabetes or allergies can get meals that are right for them. You'll see people gathering for BBQs, birthday parties, music nights, and movie nights, or if the weather's nice, out on shaded patios or walking paths, and they have gardens that look out at the Arizona landscape if anybody's fond of sitting outdoors for a spell.
Each suite's furnished, the place has cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, plus an open kitchen where residents can see the meals being made, and for those who need help, caregivers offer medication management, bath assistance, dressing, and help with getting around, including using a wheelchair or dealing with incontinence or diabetes, all under supervision around the clock. If someone wants to join for a short stay, like after surgery or when family's away, Villa B does respite care too, and there's move-in help so settling in's a bit less fuss.
The activity coordinator sets up lots of events, from arts and crafts and Chi Gong exercise to live music, cookouts, and devotional trips off-site for anyone who'd like to keep up faith practices. There's coordination with health providers and transportation is arranged for doctors' visits, groceries, or just getting out now and then, and you'll find a beautician, plus laundry and housekeeping keep things neat. Staff keep a low ratio-just two caregivers for ten residents in the daytime-so people see a familiar face, and the caregivers all speak English, keeping communication clear.
Pets are welcome, so you'll spot a few around, and family and friends are allowed to visit any time, day or night. The community stands close to pharmacies, clinics, restaurants, and churches, making errands and appointments pretty smooth. There's hospice care, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, skilled nursing, home care, and even other places in the Villas At Green Valley community-like Arroyo Gardens, Casa de Sonshine, Canyon Valley Memory Care Residence, and suites at La Posada-so people can get different kinds of care if needs change. The place keeps a simple, homey design with a water feature and shaded spots to sit, and it's licensed, state-regulated, and certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Pricing starts at $2,750 a month, and the owners, Bobby Larson and Klaus Axen, manage things locally so it keeps a family feel, and the community's got a modest rating and is recognized by MemoryCare.com for its work.
