Manor Village at Desert Ridge
Situated within the Toscana at Desert Ridge neighborhood of Phoenix, Manor Village at Desert Ridge has maintained operational status for a duration of five years. The facility utilizes a three-story structure positioned at the outer boundary of local walkability standards. With a Walk Score of 47, most logistical needs and external errands necessitate the use of a private vehicle, a reality the community attempts to balance through the provision of on-site transportation services. The campus maintains a strategic proximity to the HonorHealth Scottsdale Thompson Peak Medical Center, which is located 2.3 miles away.
The facility possesses a total capacity of 129 beds, partitioned into one-bedroom and two-bedroom residential units. The floor plans range from 590 square feet at the entry-level tier to slightly exceeding 1,000 square feet for the most expansive layouts, a dimension that provides a level of space notably above the average for assisted living environments. The care architecture incorporates independent living, assisted living, and memory care services, constructing a systematic pathway that permits residents to maintain residency as their individual clinical requirements evolve over time.
The internal service ecosystem includes beauty services, housekeeping, scheduled transportation, structured exercise programs, and diverse recreational opportunities. Culinary offerings follow a daily protocol that features a primary entree option alongside a secondary selection. The community facilitates periodic local excursions and maintains a pet-friendly policy. Administrative oversight rests with Nicolle Blais, while Manor Village US Holdings, LLC retains operational control.
Manor Village at Desert Ridge functions as a large-format, multi-level community defined by unit sizes that prioritize square footage. It serves as an effective operational environment for individuals who place a high value on maintaining continuity of residence across multiple care stages within a suburban Phoenix setting.
