Lovecare Co sits out on East Edgemont Street in Tucson, Arizona, and is a small senior living home where things feel quiet and homey, and the staff makes a real effort to know each resident and treat folks kindly, and people can even keep a cat or dog with them, which can bring a lot of comfort. The place can house up to eight residents at a time, which helps make it easy to get to know others and also makes it more manageable for the staff to offer personalized attention, especially with things like helping with bathing, dressing, and getting around if a person needs a hand with transfers, and they keep someone on duty day and night. They let folks live in private rooms at $2,600 per month or share a semi-private room for $2,400, and all the rooms come furnished, so moving in isn't too much trouble, plus you can count on conveniences like Wi-Fi, cable TV, private phone, and a daily, scheduled meal service that does its best to meet different dietary needs, like for folks with diabetes or food allergies.
The staff at Lovecare Co understands dementia care and memory issues, so they've got programs to help people stay oriented and feel safe, with spaces set up to reduce confusion and prevent wandering. You'll find gardens, walking paths, a shady backyard, a deck where you can sit to read or play games, and a recreation room with plenty of light. Meals are prepared on site, and the staff handles both medication management and coordinating care with outside doctors or hospitals when it's needed, while transportation is arranged for medical appointments, so you're not left worrying about how you'll get to see a doctor or pick up your prescriptions from nearby pharmacies.
The community provides things that seem more ordinary but matter-like regular housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning, along with daily activities, movie nights, interactive music, exercise classes, craft days, and dishes up special manicure days, which some folks look forward to each week. The setting's near parks, places of worship, theaters, and healthcare facilities, so residents can maintain routines outside the home if they want, while common areas like a dining room and garden let people gather, visit, or enjoy fresh air. Lovecare Co keeps a staff that speaks English and treats residents, their visitors, and coworkers with joy and kindness, and all the health services-including support for diabetic and incontinence care-are coordinated by folks who seem thoughtful and professional. People find a sense of community here, as Lovecare Co has provided senior care since 1991, and they take pride in being steady and trustworthy, handling assisted living and board and care with dignity and respect for every person.
