The building is single-story, has 10 beds, and has been open for six years. Kori K Zarinegar serves as administrator. Walk Score of 1 means this is a fully car-dependent location, and transportation is available through the community for residents who need to get somewhere.

Ten beds is the defining feature of this place. That’s not a wing of a larger facility. It’s a residential care home, and the care model reflects that.

Licensed nurses and CNAs cover staffing around the clock, with a doctor on staff and rehabilitation services available. Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s care are both confirmed specialty tracks, which matters for families whose loved one has a diagnosis that rules out a lot of general assisted living options. Pets are welcome. Chef-prepared meals are served on-site.

State inspections are overseen by Arizona’s Department of Health Services, Bureau of Long Term Care Licensing. Inspection themes have included medication management, environmental safety, care planning and documentation, and housekeeping and upkeep.

For families who want a small, residential-scale environment with 24-hour staffing and dedicated support for Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s, Mountain Cove offers that in a quiet Anthem setting rather than a large institutional one.

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.

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.
