At HOME in Shea

At HOME in Shea is a small, assisted living home in Phoenix with room for about ten residents, and while most folks tend to spend their time in their own rooms with visits from family, there's plenty of help for those who need it, like personalized care for bathing, dressing, getting around, and taking medicine, along with thoughtful extras like a mobile hairdresser and scheduled rides for appointments and errands. The place stays clean and well-kept, which means residents can expect a tidy, relaxing setting, and the meals come three times a day, always homemade, with fresh fruit and soft diets when needed, plus they can adjust things for special diets like diabetes or allergies. There's a dining room where meals are served, but residents can also have quiet space in their own furnished studios, and support's provided if someone's facing memory issues, medical problems, or if they need respite or hospice help. Community activities include birthday parties with cakes and singers, movie nights, board games, music therapy, and visits from animals, plus folks can join in on fitness classes or enjoy the garden and walking paths, and staff keeps up with schedules for music, art, and other social events. There's an emergency alert system in every room, so staff-which includes English-speaking caregivers-can help right away if someone needs them, and the building's accessible for walkers and wheelchairs. While the community doesn't accept ALTCS, they do offer comprehensive care planning, move-in support, and professional help with assessing if it's the right fit, and they'll even keep you in the know with details about the surrounding neighborhood's weather, crime, health care, and parks. The licensing shows At HOME in Shea was inspected several times between 2020 and 2023, though as of the latest update, it's currently inactive, with a license number AL11145H and a listed operating period from June 1, 2020, to May 31, 2024. The home feels lived-in and welcoming instead of brand-new, and its community spaces like the garden, fitness room, sauna, reading room, and game areas are designed to help seniors have a supportive, pleasant place to spend their days.
