Desert Springs Assisted Living Home sits at 474 West Remington Drive in Chandler, Arizona, and feels more like a comfortable home than a big facility, since the place has five beds and rooms that are either private or semi-private, so each resident can find a little space to call their own. The small size means the caregivers can really keep an eye on everyone, and they're ready 24 hours a day, helping with things like bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and even incontinence care, which helps folks feel safe, especially if memory problems are making things tricky. There's a focus on helping people with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, so the staff knows how to gently help with confusion or wandering, and the home has alert systems, outdoor walking paths, and secure areas to help everyone stay safe.
Meals always get special attention, because they're made fresh in the house, with choices for those who have diabetes or food allergies, and the dining room has a schedule but lets folks eat all day if they want, so no one's stuck feeling hungry or out of step. People can bring pets, too, since a lot of seniors like to have their animal friends nearby, and it really does make the place feel warmer. Desert Springs doesn't just stop at care and food, since there are daily activities, simple community events, movie nights, garden walks, and places inside or out to sit with visitors or with friends, helping everyone stay busy and not get lonely, and if someone just wants quiet, there's always a spot for that too.
The location couldn't be handier, being close to plenty of restaurants, cafes, parks, theaters, and pharmacies, and three hospitals are nearby for health needs. There's scheduled transportation for errands or appointments, along with parking if visitors want to come by, and staff can help with move-in or laundry and dry cleaning if that's something a resident or family member needs. People who need a short break from caring for a loved one can use a respite stay, and the home serves both those who need a little help and those needing more care as time goes by.
Desert Springs is licensed by the Arizona Department of Health Services, under license number AL9470H, and has earned high ratings, 4.5 out of 5, from families and residents who liked the care, support, and friendly staff. The home offers personal placement help and free information for families figuring out what kind of care their loved one needs, focusing on adapting as needs change. Daily schedules, high-speed internet, emergency alert systems, and attentive caregivers who understand veterans' benefits or help with complicated paperwork round out the list of what you'll find. The home's been recognized with awards like Best of Senior Living and for its activities, and while there's no public price listed, anyone interested can call to check on availability or to get more details.
