Find Residential Care Home Communities Near Albuquerque, NM

Answer a few questions to get personalized results

Who are you searching for?

Residential care homes in Albuquerque may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Albuquerque care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Albuquerque, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

We are also serving Assisted Living facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Greater Gardner & Monkbridge, Near North Valley and Spanish Walk.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Rio Rancho, Edgewood and North Valley.

Research services for seniors in Albuquerque, NM

In Albuquerque, NM, seniors have access to local offices and organizations that may help them obtain financial assistance for senior care, including:

Albuquerque’s public transportation, managed by ABQ RIDE, encompasses both buses and a metro system. The bus routes extend through much of the city, serving more than 13 million passengers yearly. Seniors and those with disabilities are eligible for discounts.

Albuquerque offers several health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has several hospitals, including Lovelace Medical Center and Presbyterian Española Hospital.

One of Albuquerque’s most well-known attractions is the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Once a year, the sky fills with hundreds of hot air balloons, from the whimsical to the stunning. At night, these aircraft illuminate and create a glowing spectacle. The city also has a balloon museum, exploring ballooning as an art form, sport, and science. Another can’t-miss spot to visit is the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science, where permanent exhibit subjects range from dinosaurs to volcanos. Art lovers flock to the University of New Mexico Museum of Art, which houses more than 30,000 works and artifacts, establishing it as the most extensive collection in the state. The Turquoise Museum, the Telephone Pioneer Museum, and the Rattlesnake Museum meet a variety of quirky interests with comprehensive and fascinating information. Nature seekers in Albuquerque will gravitate toward its sweeping views, peaceful trails, and peaks for sunset gazing. Both strollers and avid hikers alike can find their footing with various terrains, such as La Luz Trailhead, Sandia Crest, Boca Negra Canyon, and Paseo del Bosque Trail.
