The Retreat at Alameda

Overview of The Retreat at Alameda

The Retreat at Alameda is a 104-bed retirement community offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care at 1920 W Alameda Road in Phoenix’s Alameda Business Park (Maricopa County, Arizona). Licensed as an Assisted Living Center and administered by Kari Curry, the facility operates as a for-profit entity. Established 5 years ago, it maintains a C+ rating with the Better Business Bureau (Not Accredited). Pets are not permitted.

The community offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments in a 2-story building, with directed care (capacity 32) and personal care services (capacity 72). Memory care is available, though the facility notes it holds no Alzheimer’s certification. Restaurant-style dining prepared by professional chefs emphasizes fresh, seasonal ingredients with dietary accommodations. Housekeeping and laundry services are included.

Regulatory compliance has been a persistent challenge. Since 2022, the facility has accumulated 14 deficiencies across 7 inspections and 6 complaint investigations, averaging 3.5 deficiencies per year (5 percent below Arizona’s 3.7 per-year average). However, the facility faces repeated violations and enforcement actions. Emergency responder documentation has emerged as a critical and recurring deficiency.

An August 22, 2025 complaint investigation identified five deficiencies including emergency responder documentation failures, administration notifications, and residency agreement deficiencies. This same issue reappeared in subsequent enforcement actions: December 2, 2025 ($250 fine, pending) specifically documented the facility’s failure to provide emergency responder information-a repeat deficiency from prior inspections-and January 2, 2026 ($250 fine, paid in full). Earlier enforcement actions in 2024 included $500 fines (one paid, one pending as of the latest reports) for premises safety concerns.

Additional documented deficiencies span caregiver skills verification, medical records safeguards, disaster plan review, fire inspection compliance, and fall prevention training. The inspection summary describes ongoing challenges with documentation and safety compliance with no clear trajectory of improvement. No license suspensions or revocations have been issued.

Located 20.5 miles from downtown Phoenix and 3.66 miles from the nearest hospital, the facility sits in an area with a walk score of 27 (somewhat walkable; most trips require transportation).

Families should ask about corrections for repeated emergency responder documentation violations, verify emergency protocols, and request recent inspection documents from the Arizona Department of Health Services, Bureau of Long Term Care Licensing.
