Devon Gables offers nursing home, assisted living, independent living, memory care, nursing care, and skilled nursing in Tucson, AZ. Assisted living includes help with bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment, whereas independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care.
Memory care takes place in a secured, supervised setting. Skilled nursing and nursing home care provide licensed nursing on site around the clock, so the range of care can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time.
With 312 beds, Devon Gables is a larger community, with more residents and staff serving the campus. Total nurse staffing is 4h 4m per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident. A Walk Score of 58 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be done on foot, and a resident who no longer drives may still get out independently.
Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare can apply to short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a long stay, and private pay allows a family to pay directly. Heather Friebus serves as the administrator, and Devon Gables is operated by Devon Gables Rehabilitation Center.
Restaurant-style dining, in-room dining, dietitian-guided menus, and diabetic-friendly and low-sodium options give residents different ways to receive meals that reflect their dietary needs. A beauty and barber shop lets residents arrange grooming on site, while activities include English and Spanish bingo, community movie nights, Wii bowling, crafts, church services representing various denominations, and Bible study.
