Inspection History

In Arizona, the Department of Health Services, Bureau of Long Term Care Licensing performs regular onsite inspections and investigates complaints for all licensed residential and nursing facilities.

We don't publish a score for assisted living residences with fewer than three inspections on record. This would unfairly reward providers with limited inspection history or those that have not been operating long enough to be cited.
