Because We Care Assisted Living sits along North 103rd Lane in Peoria, Arizona, housed in a stylish Spanish-revival home with beautiful landscaping, walking paths, and outdoor seats where folks can enjoy some fresh air without going far. This is a small, licensed assisted living home, run by Because We Care 2 LLC, with room for up to 10 residents, and it offers both assisted living and memory care for seniors who need support with things like bathing, dressing, medication management, and help for those living with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or even palliative and hospice care needs. The facility's shared living and dining areas feel cozy, while private bedrooms have both bathtubs and walk-in showers, so everyone has comfort and privacy in their own space. Staff here prepare home-cooked meals every day, and there's housekeeping and laundry as well, which takes the chore out of daily living. They have a high staff-to-resident ratio, which means residents get more attention and support with walking, managing diabetes or incontinence, and just having someone there when needed, all in a family-like setting. People moving in will find the home clean and the food described as exceptional, with meal planners and chefs making sure everything tastes good and is nutritious, and the place has even received some awards for its meals, activities, and friendly staff. There's no Medicare or Medicaid certification, so families will need other payment plans, but the staff help families find the right fit at no extra cost. Residents get a safe, nurturing place where transitions to community life feel a little easier, especially for seniors needing non-medical care and companionship in a group home atmosphere. This home is well-known in the area for providing kind support, keeping both residents and their families at ease, and is respected for making everyone feel welcome.
Neglectful, unsafe care and mismanagement
I had a terrible experience - inexperienced, often uncaring staff showed zero urgency: I was left unattended at meals with food shoved on a rolling tray, my oxygen wasn't turned on, fall risk ignored, and a medication made me drowsy. Medication cabinets were left open, residents were mishandled (one caregiver appeared intoxicated), and the food was small, processed portions; the owner ignored my concerns. It's very clean and I met some caring staff, but I would not recommend this facility.
