The 3-story community offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans.

Regulatory compliance has been exceptionally strong. Since 2023, Mountain Park has recorded only 2 deficiencies across 4 inspections, averaging 0.7 per year-81 percent better than Arizona’s average of 3.7 per year. Both deficiencies, identified in May 2023, involved documentation in resident medical records: ensuring caregivers document services provided and that entries are dated, legible, and authenticated. All subsequent investigations-May 2024, December 2024, and August 2025-found zero deficiencies.

The facility received 4 complaints since 2023 (33 percent below state average), with all recent complaint investigations finding no substantiated violations. No fines, enforcement actions, or license actions have been issued. The record demonstrates prompt resolution of initial documentation practices and sustained compliance over two years.

Located 14.5 miles from downtown Phoenix and 6.55 miles from HonorHealth Tempe Medical Center, the facility sits in an area with a walk score of 44 (somewhat walkable; most trips require transportation). Arizona financial assistance programs available include ALTCS, Non-Medical Home and Community Based Services, Section 202 Supportive Housing, and the CARES Program.

Mountain Park’s recent inspection record and resolution of earlier documentation concerns suggest a facility maintaining effective compliance standards and responsiveness to regulatory feedback.

Mountain Park is suited for families seeking assisted living or memory care in the Ahwatukee Foothills area.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Arizona

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Arizona?

Assisted living in Arizona supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Arizona?

Assisted living in Arizona is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Arizona Medicaid cover assisted living?

Arizona Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Arizona) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 575 assisted living facilities in Arizona. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Arizona?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Arizona, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Arizona?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
