Lucy Anne's Place sits in a calm neighborhood in Surprise, AZ, where the days feel steady and members find safety and care in a large, friendly setting that holds up to 35 residents and has 40 licensed beds for adult day healthcare. The community focuses on seniors who need a bit of extra help with daily living, offering assisted living services that cover things like bathing, dressing, toileting, and getting around safely, with staff who also lend a hand with showers, hygiene, and even a mobile hairdresser if someone wants. They serve three home-cooked meals a day and will adjust diets for folks who have diabetes or high blood pressure. The days at Lucy Anne's Place usually include regular events, movie nights, exercise classes, craft programs, garden time, music therapy, animal visits, and outings to local spots, along with easy access to a book room, recreation rooms, and health areas like a hot tub and steam room. Members can also take part in lifelong learning and wellness classes scheduled throughout the day, and there are always activities meant to help people stay social and active if that's what they want.
Lucy Anne's Place welcomes seniors in early to moderate stages of dementia, Alzheimer's, or Parkinson's, as well as individuals recovering from stroke or dealing with fall-related injuries. A Life Enrichment Day Program runs from 8 AM to 5 PM for these members, featuring activities that support both their minds and bodies, along with memory care, respite care, skilled nursing, hospice, and continuing care depending on each person's needs. What's pretty special here is their intergenerational program, which lets children from Wirtzie's Preschool & Childcare and senior members spend time together in a dedicated space, sharing in games and stories that give both the young and old a chance to learn from each other and smile more often. Families can find some relief knowing their loved ones have support during the day and access to safe and engaging spaces, sunny gardens, and services that fit what they're going through.
Lucy Anne's Place holds accreditation from CARF International and follows licensing rules set by Arizona's Department of Social Services, so there's a steady process behind the care. The facility connects with other local community options and healthcare agencies, and it sits under the guidance of Benevilla and has ties with Banner Health, giving added peace of mind that it's supported by people who focus on wellbeing. The programs there genuinely aim to boost a sense of community and discovery, helping older adults feel at home while they get the everyday help and attention they need.
