After thoughtfully searching for home for my mom I found carefree Assisted living. I felt welcome as soon as I walked in. The owner was there to greet me and my mom. The staff was warm and welcoming. I could see daily activities going on from yoga to someone helping chop veggies to someone also getting her hair done. They have a salon and a gym along with individual rooms. I loved the space and feel of just being home. So did my mom. I’m so happy I found this place.... Read more

We recently relocated my mother to Carefree Assisted Living ( Doc's Place ) which is a beautiful group home in a quiet desert setting and would like to share our thoughts with anyone whose loved one needs assistance. They maintain a caring and understanding staff that is willing to work with individual residents and family needs to make sure your loved one receives the best of care. Meals are prepared that appeal to sight, taste and nutrition. Activities are planned to be enjoyed by each individual resident. It is obvious that the staff and Doc's Place truly care and that it is not just a job.

We started out at Docs Place in [date removed] for my father. Within a very short time of 2 months the owner decided to start cutting corners. A competent, experienced house manager was let go at Christmas. This lack of transparency lead to distrust. The owner is a person with no previous experience in elder care. His career before this purchase was construction. My father did not receive the peer socialization, mental activity, physical activity, nor therapeutic exercises that dementia residents desperately require. The home was too sedentary, sluggish and inactive for my father. The staffed care is kind and loving and they do their best caring for the residents. However, they are understaffed, unappreciated, and inadequately compensated by the owner. There is a revolving door of help. They are used and let go over and over. This is a poorly managed home. Please do your research before you make this important decision. This place is also known as Carefree Assisted Living-Phoenix.

Response from Carefree Assisted Living
February 25, 2022Hi Jeanette, I am saddened by your review. You question my motives and dedication to the care of our residents in quite a hurtful manner. Most of the claims you have made are outright false. I am sorry if you felt that we were not a good fit for your father. During your father's stay, you never once made a comment or had a concern about your father’s care. We spent countless hours with your father playing chess, taking walks, and sharing stories, and it was quite obvious that he enjoyed his time with us. It is clear that your motivation for this review was prompted by [name removed] termination, I know that the two of you were friends, but you have not been informed as to the circumstances behind [name removed] termination. The accusation that we are understaffed or that my staff is underpaid or that I do not pay overtime are all categorically false. We pay at the top of the competitive range and we maintain a very high staff to resident ratio. Your suggestion that I am unqualified is also unfounded. I am licensed by the board of nursing as an assisted living home manager and I have been a certified caregiver for several years. Your suggestion that I don’t have the proper motivation because I was a contractor at one point is just ignorant. You do not know what my motivations are. Being a caregiver and choosing a career in caring for the elderly is a calling of the heart, it is similar to raising children, it takes empathy, patience, and the ability to put others' needs ahead of your own. You do not need a master’s degree to learn these skills any more than a mother needs a degree in child development to have a child. Since we opened this business, I have poured my heart and soul into it. The last couple of years have been difficult for all care homes and many have unfortunately closed their doors, but I am dedicated to doing whatever it takes to provide a safe, enjoyable, and stimulating environment for our residents as well as a positive and fulfilling work environment for our employees. Respectfully Josh Brimhall
This gorgeous home is a hidden gem by the mountains in North Phoenix. My grandmother started living there earlier in 2020, right as the COVID crisis started. I've been so grateful to know that she is well cared for, safe and not alone during this difficult time. She has a nice group of friends and loves her carers. She doesn't have to worry about getting her groceries or managing her meds, which would be a relief at any time but right now this keeps her safer than ever. I've been able to visit her too, they have onsite COVID testing and their protocols are super safe and strict, I feel really good about everything. [name removed] is also her PCP, so it's just a great deal all around; she gets to see him every week when he checks in with the residents. Love this place and highly recommend it! Also, it's a beautiful, luxurious home which is just a lovely way for my Grandma to spend her twilight time - she deserves it.

My family and I brought our dad to Doc's Place in [date removed]. He was near death after we removed him from another Assisted Living home in town. We weren't sure how many hours or days dad would be with us. The team at Doc's Place never saw my dad as near death. They saw him as a treasured patient. They prepared special meals for him, carefully bathed him, joked with him, and nursed him to a point where he joined his housemates at dinner and on the beautiful patio where he shared stories of "the good old days", WWII and bragged about his kids, grandkids. He was treated with tenderness, individual attention, and DIGNITY. Dad spent his last 3 months of life in the safe, friendly, and comfortable environment of Doc's Place. My heart is completely at peace with my dad's last days. The staff treated my dad as if he was their own family. They were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and caring. I highly recommend Doc's Place to anyone looking for a perfect place for a loved one.
