Pegasus Landing of Mesa lets adults 55 and over live in a community where you'll see both small pets like dogs and cats and friendly faces all around, with staff available at all hours and nurses there if needed, and there's a doctor on call too, which helps people feel a bit more at ease because needs can change as time goes on. The place offers different types of apartments, like studios, semi-private rooms, and some single room units, with walk-in showers, kitchenettes, and basic cable and WiFi included, plus some spaces have walk-in closets and wall-to-wall carpeting, and there's air conditioning you can control yourself. People who need help get it here, whether that's for memory care, light help, more serious nursing, or if someone has complex needs, since they do assist with daily living activities, reminders for medications, diabetes care, and even behavioral support for those who have those needs, and if someone tends to wander, there's a computerized alarm bracelet system and secured property to keep folks safe, which is comforting because wandering is a real worry for some families.
The common areas are bright, comfortable, and there's TVs, a recreation room, a computer area, a library, and even a community theater, which is nice since everyone needs a different kind of break sometimes, and folks can get haircuts or barber services without leaving the building, or use laundry and dry cleaning right on site, and if people want to spend time outside, there are paved walking paths, gardens, patios, and a secure courtyard with a gazebo for some fresh air or maybe a bit of people-watching. Three restaurant-style meals are served every day in a dining room with wooden tables and desert-themed art, but you can eat in your room or have private dining when you'd like it, and special diets like gluten-free, vegan, low sodium, or low sugar are no problem, and there's also a kitchenette in the apartments for folks who want to do their own light cooking just like at home.
Recreation is pretty varied, with bingo, art programs, happy hours, trips, karaoke, game nights, gardening, Tai Chi, yoga, and even a resident musical group for those who like a bit of song, and there's always an activity director organizing things, so there's a good chance of finding something enjoyable, whether it's inside or out in the garden. Physical therapy, on-site rehab, and skilled nursing - including care for folks who need help moving or using a lift - are all provided, plus options for hospice or respite care if those become necessary, and memory care staff have training for dementia support, helping keep things as calm and organized as possible. Pegasus Landing lets people age in place, so someone can start out living more independently and get more help as needed, and there's cleaning, parking for residents and guests, transportation to appointments, and even help for those with bowel or bladder incontinence, which is good peace of mind. Both men and women live here, and staff reflect that too, so it's a bit like a small town in that way, and with devotional services both on and off site, everyone has a chance to stay connected to their faith if that's important to them. The apartments and common areas are neat and up to date, with safety features like accessible showers, full tubs, and grab bars, so people don't have to worry about slipping, and because the place is licensed by the state, there's an extra bit of oversight as well.
