The Watermark at Morrison Ranch sits at 3333 E. Morrison Ranch Parkway in Gilbert, AZ, and brings together independent living, assisted living, memory care, and short-term stays all in one location, and when you walk in, you see wide, bright spaces filled with natural light, and you'll notice some apartments have lake views, and there's a choice between studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom layouts, some with full kitchens, washer and dryer, and quartz countertops. You'll find the place is pet-friendly, and residents can keep their own pets, and outside there's a courtyard and spacious grounds for walking, while inside, there are areas like a lounge, a dining room for chef-planned meals, a fitness center, a game room, a library, and a beauty salon where salon and spa services are offered. Each person living here gets a personalized care plan, and professional staff help with daily living if needed, taking care to support independence and comfort, and the community's licensed and focused on safety and skilled attention.
There's a regular calendar of activities with things like tai chi, yoga, creative arts, music lessons, and extraordinary outings, which you'll find listed in the Expressions Calendar, and those who enjoy being busy can also join Watermark University classes, or participate in Signature Programs such as Prema Memory Support℠ and Gourmet Bites Cuisine for those with special dining needs. Technology plays a part in daily life, with online portals, Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, and use of innovations like EngageVR®, LifeLoop, and iN2L to connect with family or keep track of things, and the staff use Accushield for added safety. Residents can request scheduled local transportation for appointments and outings, and housekeeping and laundry services are available, and meals happen restaurant-style in the dining room every day.
People needing support for Alzheimer's or dementia get specialized memory care in a safe setting, and the Neighborhood is designed to feel peaceful and secure, and there are resources for families as well. The Watermark offers help with independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, all on one campus, and as a Continuing Care Retirement Community, people can transition between care levels as their needs change.

Amenities support various interests, from swimming in the pool to games of cards, relaxing on patios, or working out in the fitness center-everything's set up to make daily life easier and more enjoyable.
