A Paradise for Parents Assisted Living and Memory Care is a small, privately-owned care home with locations in Surprise, Goodyear, and Mesa, Arizona. Each house holds up to 10 residents and sits in a quiet residential neighborhood near Phoenix, giving a home-like setting with private and semi-private rooms where every senior gets personal attention. There's always a high caregiver-to-resident ratio, sometimes as low as one staff member for every three residents, and the team stays consistent, so everyone knows who's taking care of them. The homes have private and shared bedrooms, walk-in showers, and indoor and outdoor common areas where residents can relax, socialize, and see the desert landscape.
Assisted living services help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and medication, but staff always encourage independence when possible. Memory care focuses on individualized plans for people with Alzheimer's and dementia, using science-based programs like the Bredesen and Enhance Protocols. They include memory-friendly diets, supplements chosen after blood tests, and activities to keep minds and bodies active. There's hyperbaric oxygen therapy, red light therapy, and even a sauna, which staff and families hope will help keep brains and bodies healthier for longer. All residents eat home-cooked meals made from scratch, with the cooks learning from nutritionists, often using local and even homegrown produce.
You'll see exercise sessions with a dedicated personal trainer several times a week, group workouts in both the house and backyard, organized neighborhood walks, and field trips that take residents out to places like the movie theater, Lake Pleasant for boating, air shows, restaurants, baseball games, the State Fair, and the zoo. The community calendar is always full, with daily activities, visits from musicians, karaoke, and games to keep everyone engaged, plus outings and events where family members are welcome to join in. Pets are allowed, and the homes are handicap accessible, with Wi-Fi available. There's an open-door policy for visits any time, so loved ones are free to come and go as they please.
A Paradise for Parents covers everything from healthy meals and laundry to medication management, with professional staff caring for residents as if they were family.
