Reflections At Fellowship Square Mesa sits about seven miles outside Gilbert, Arizona, at 159 South Power Road in Mesa, and serves up to 32 residents in a medium-sized senior living community that's been recently modernized, offering both assisted living and memory care. Folks living at Reflections can pick from a variety of studio layouts and both private and shared room options, all with updated common areas, wall-mounted smart TVs for personal use, and room for family photos, which is nice when you want to feel at home. The place focuses a lot on caring for people with Alzheimer's and dementia, with the Reflections Memory Care program giving support in safe and secure areas, including two enclosed patios where people can safely enjoy the outdoors, even when memory issues are a concern.
Staff at Reflections At Fellowship Square Mesa have training in dementia and Alzheimer's care, certified by the NCCDP, and provide personal plans for care, covering everything from medication management and bathing to help with dressing and moving around. There's always someone on hand for 24-hour care and supervision and a call system keeps residents connected to help. Meals are covered with all-day, restaurant-style dining and special menus that handle diets like allergies and diabetes, and there are plenty of options for people who need help with feeding or meal reminders. There's also diabetic care, incontinence help, and non-ambulatory care for those who need it, and weekly dental cleanings and hygiene services are on the regular schedule.
The community promotes social connections and staying active, with activities from "It's Never 2 Late" for cognitive fun and stimulation, to music, pet therapy, aromatherapy, plus balance and exercise classes. Residents can garden, walk on maintained paths, use the beauty/barber shop, play cards, relax in the library, or take part in spiritual services, thanks to a chaplain who visits weekly. There are outings offsite, activities on the calendar every day of the week, and some events are even led by residents. Staff aim for relationship-centered care, with regular communication with families so that care keeps fitting each person's needs as they change.
The facility, run by a non-profit, accepts Mercy Care and UnitedHealth, and is recognized for its friendly staff and some awards for care, even though the resident rating currently averages quite low at 1 out of 10, which is important to notice. Reflections At Fellowship Square Mesa does try to support both active and healthy older adults and those who need more hands-on help, providing services and programs to preserve as much independence as possible, and the setting itself is full of natural light and outdoor spaces, with shared indoor areas for movies, games, or quiet time if you want that, and staff are always around to pitch in as needs come up.
