Gardens of Scottsdale

From parts of the community we have seen, it is very clean and the staff members are just wonderful. From the feedback we have received from our loved one she seems to really enjoy the meals and dining service. Also they have plenty of activities going on, our loved one is kept so busy every day. She is very happy there,

We chose The Gardens of Scottsdale because they were receptive to us and our needs. The meals here are chef prepared and she really enjoys them. My mom is in a private room but they offer shared rooms as well. I would recommend to others who are looking, we have definitely had a good experience.

Very nice place. The tour was quick but very informative.

When we toured this community for my mom it was nice and clean. The person doing the tour was helpful and answered all my questions. It was just really to far away from me. So we chose something closer.

Mom chose this place after walking in and seeing a friend from church and it got better from there. They showed us the available room and we loved it ,it was sunny and overlooks the courtyard. And it is right by the elevator since she has 2 dogs which was another plus but it was easy to take them outside. The Food is really good and the staff is helpful and friendly. They have gone to the casino and they play bingo. They take her and a friend to church on Sundays and even let them stay for coffee and pick them up after they are done. I would recommend this to anybody.

My 93 year old mother entered assisted living at the Gardens of Scottsdale last month. She adamantly did not want to leave her home of 42 years, but her caregiver could no longer give her the care that she now needed. However, after just two days at the Gardens, she loved it there. She realized that this is the place that she needed to be. The caregivers and staff are very attentive and loving. They really do take it upon themselves to make sure she is safe and happy. She likes the food, and has met some new friends there. It is not an overwhelming facility so is just the right size for my mother. They also have skilled nursing and a memory unit, which is an important aspect to me. I am now traveling and it is a comfort to me knowing that she is safe and in good hands.

This community was a strong option for us. We liked the way the community looked. They have a nice dining room and the food looked good. The staff we met were nice and it is in a good location. The community we chose was just a little closer to family.

The care at this community. We like the staff and they are always caring and attentive to her needs. The meals are outstanding. I like that she is active with the others in the activities. The community is a clean and nice atmosphere. I like knowing that they made my mom feel welcome. We had the feeling when we arrived that this community would be a great place for my mom.

We toured on May 11 2017; wonderful setting; very good feeling from staff; we placed our 100-old-year old mother in the SNF at the Gardens; considering assisted living facilities when she is discharged.

The Gardens of Scottsdale has definitely met our expectations. The place is very clean and the meals are very good. The food is better than other places we had toured. It is working out very well for my father so far and we are very happy.

Dad says the food is pretty good I would give it a three point five. They offer a lot of activities. The staff are good with him and he really likes them. They are attentive and we have good communication. They keep the community clean and I would recommend this community.

I am happy with the care that is provided here. Excellent staff team that is helpful and very caring. I like that they have alot of activities here. I would recommend the great care that is offered here to other families.

The staff at The Gardens of Scottsdale have been fantastic. It has been an easy transition for my father-in-law. He seems happy with the food also.

It was a great experience. My Father is no longer with us, but The Gardens was an excellent facility. Thank you.

We consulted with Karen Reedy from "A Place for Mom and found The Gardens of Scottsdale. Karen gave us the guidance to find a suitable facility and The Gardens is a 5 minute drive for us. The staff at the Gardens are happy and caring and is reflected in the many residents that I talked to before making a decision.

I am very pleased with the care my mother is getting at the Gardens of Scottsdale. The caregivers and staff are very pleasant and individualize attention for the residents. I can sleep at night knowing mom is safe and and getting excellent care.

The food is great and the premises are beautiful, all the staff is very good and dad has come out of his shell from coming from home to this facility, they are really caring. The only issue is communication regarding Melatonin needs at night.

Let me start out with a few positive things about this facility. It is very beautiful outside. Inside is clean and smells wonderful. Resident rooms are nice sized for comfort and skilled staff members. By all outward appearances, things are quite nice until, " that one little mishap." My elderly mother with dementia was on a one month respite stay to determine if it would work out permanently. Mom tends to wander and all members of staff "knew" this. Well..... I received a phone call from the Phoenix police department informing me that my mother was in a mattress store, confused, and lost. I immediately called the Scottsdale Gardens, told them who I was and asked about my mother. I asked if they were "missing" anyone. Their response, "Well no." I informed them of the call from the police and they quickly realized the trouble that would soon ensue. I am appalled at the lack of accountability of this facility. Mom had a "wander guard" bracelet on, but obviously removed it , AGAIN. This facility is sorely lacking at keeping a better eye on residents who are a wander risk. Needless to say, I have removed her from this place and the facility made it very clear she was "unable to continue there and I would have to make other arrangements, because she needed a secure facility and they had a waiting list for their secure area. This facility doesn't have alarms on doors for alerting, even when residents remove their bracelets.

Very nice place, really liked it, but it was a bit above my Dads price range. They did call back to let me know they would find out if any of the small studio rooms would be available, which would bring the price down, which was nice.
