Recent reviews of Independent Living in Phoenix, AZ
Sunrise of Scottsdale
Most of the care givers and other residents here are really nice. The activities director is awesome and really good to work with but I do wish at times there were more activities that I would be interested in. Sometimes they do not have enough care givers here so the response time is slower, that could be a big improvement. I also wish they would listen to the residents more often at times.

The staff are friendly and always willing to take a call, and I think the community is worth taking a look at. I would recommend this community to others.

My husband has been in residence for one year and I have been there almost every night to sit with him and put him to bed. For the last 11 weeks I have not been able to be with him and at first I thought know one could take my place. I do Skype him twice a day and he is very happy. I watch the back images and I see the wonderful staff showing love to the men and women in their care. They have done things they have never done before, like cutting hair, and I must say doing a very good job. The live music is still a big part and is happening due to technology. This is a loving place and also a happy place. They do not sit around all day but are active and having fun. They are safe due to the caring staff. We are kept up every night with the activities and are kept informed of their health situation. Thank you to all the loving staff.
