Absolute Care

3841 East Isabella Avenue, Mesa, AZ 85206
Overview of Absolute Care

Absolute Care is a 59-bed nursing home and memory care community located at 3841 East Isabella Avenue in Mesa, Maricopa County, Arizona, privately owned and operated by Manuel De La Torre. The facility provides assisted living and memory care services to residents across the greater Phoenix area, with private or semi-private room accommodations, dining services, beauty treatments, and recreational programming. The facility accepts Medicare and Medicaid, with 96.6% of its current census Medicaid-financed.

The facility’s one-star CMS overall rating reflects significant challenges on health inspections, where performance falls 63.9% below the Arizona state average. No federal penalties or payment denials were reported in the past three years.

On the staffing front, Absolute Care stands apart: nursing hours of 3 hours 46 minutes per resident per day run 31.7% above state norms, positioning the facility 40th among 72 Arizona skilled nursing homes in adjusted nursing care.

Current occupancy of 56.1% sits well below the Arizona average, indicating substantial availability for new admissions. The community’s quality-of-care data shows pronounced contrasts. Residents experience zero falls with major injury; a standout outcome with similarly strong marks on functional decline, depression screening, and weight management. By contrast, high-risk pressure ulcer rates reach 11.3%, nearly 2.5 times the state average, and antipsychotic medication initiation in short-stay residents occurs at a rate nine times higher than Arizona benchmarks, signaling potential overuse of behavioral medication in the rehabilitation population.

A resident council convenes regularly to address facility policies and resident quality of life.

Absolute Care suits Medicaid-funded long-term care residents in Maricopa County, particularly those in assisted living or memory care settings without geographic constraints on placement options.
