Inspection Score
A composite 0–100 score combining this facility's inspections, citations, complaints, and enforcement actions relative to the Arizona state average. We don't score profiles with fewer than 3 inspections on record because a small inspection history reads as "below average" on every count-based metric — that would over-reward a facility just for being new.

My grandmother was placed in this home in late October 2025. During her stay, she was verbally berated, physically abused by helpers, not provided with female assistants, not given food or medicine, and the male care givers were witnessed taking another (nonverbal) female patient into a room for almost an hour.
