Freedom Plaza Care Center

Freedom Plaza Care Center in Peoria, Arizona, sits on North Plaza del Rio Boulevard and has been serving older adults for over twenty years, with several buildings like Baldwin House, which tries its best to create warm, home-like spaces and offer things like social activities, cultural programs, and classes, and then there's The Inn at Freedom Plaza and different levels of living like independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, so people can move between them as their needs change without leaving the community. The Freedom Plaza Care Center itself offers both short-term and long-term skilled nursing care in a 111-bed licensed facility with about seventy residents, and they handle things like rehabilitation after hospital stays, support for those who need help with bathing, dressing, and taking medicine, and offer specialized care for Alzheimer's, dementia, and those who can't get around easily or are bedridden, all with nurses and aides around twenty-four hours a day and therapy staff for physical, occupational, and psychiatric care when needed. You'll find private and shared apartments, with kitchens, private bathrooms, cable TV, WiFi, and air conditioning in furnished units, and residents get meals made daily by a chef with options for dietary needs like diabetes, special allergies, and they try to stick to comfort food that's like home-cooking. They help with everything from housekeeping, laundry, and move-in arrangements, to guest services and transportation for trips or appointments, and you'll see things like a beauty salon, a fitness room with basic exercise equipment, a movie area, arts and crafts rooms, outdoor walking paths, gardens, and a library tucked into the property for reading. The staff runs activity programs with things like yoga, exercise, religious gatherings, games, music, and off-site trips, so the days don't all run together. Safety's a focus too, with alarm systems, sprinklers, emergency call buttons, and on-call maintenance to fix things when needed. Freedom Plaza Care Center also includes hospice care, adult day programs, respite stays to give family caregivers a break, and an in-home care option called D&L Adult Care Home, which gives a small setting for those who want tight-knit, more personal help. The campus has therapy rooms, spaces for group activities, a chapel, and places to sit and talk, and staff collaborate with families to make care plans that fit each resident. The community's run by Caring, LLC, and works to offer residents as much independence as possible, with support close by for whatever might come up, which means the people living there can hold onto a sense of independence while still having care tailored just for them whenever it's needed, and that's something pretty comforting in a place like this.
