Pennington Gardens - Hidden Gem!!
My mother in law has been to 5 assisted living communities and this one so far has been her and our favorite. [name removed] who we met with answered all of our questions and assisted with everything from hospice to the right room for mom and making sure it was tip top ready for her. PG is homey and charming inside and even smells good. They bake Otis Spunkmyer cookies for their residents every day, host fun activities, mom loves the food and the open airy high ceiling dining room. Her bathroom is spacious which was important to her being in wheelchair. All of staff have been over the top helpful, caring, resourceful and FUN! [name removed], [name removed], [name removed], [name removed]and our new hospice team from Suncrest have all made this transition 5-Star. PG does accept ALTCS patients if your loved one qualifies. We are private pay but if Mom outlives her money it’s good to know we still have a place for her that she considers home (and no other move is needed). 5-STAR experience so far!!!

We toured Pennington Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care when searching for a Memory Care facility for our loved one. The cleanliness of this facility was poor. Also, the person that I had the tour appointment with was unprepared.

Our Family's Experience
Our loved one is happy there which her happiness is the most important thing for us. She has made friends and enjoys the activities they have going on - although we do wish they had a little bit more physical activities. Now there are some areas of improvement - they are experiencing pretty high turnover's within their staff team which trickles down to the overall quality of care - especially the consistency regarding hygiene maintenance. However the staff they do have working there are very good and we know almost everyone on the staff team. They are very friendly and they do care. Anytime we have a concern and we bring it to their attention they get right on it. We do wish there was some clarity regarding who is in charge, that would be very beneficial for families and their loved ones.

Tour of Pennington Gardens
Pennington Gardens was a well kept facility that looked to be nice. It was just seemed like nothing was different than where we were at before and we wanted something that stuck out. It was also more expensive than we wanted.

Tour of Pennington Gardens
I was immediately turned off during our tour with Pennington Gardens. I felt like they were not listening to me, they immediately wanted to put my mom in the area where residents needed the most type of care and it was very institutional and that it not what my mom needed, she is still very independent.

Comfortable Place for My Loved One
They were so very helpful with moving my loved one there. They have always been available to answer my questions, and help me in any way they can. They had a change of staff that was a little hiccup in her care, but after the new staff settled in, everything went back to being great. The facility is beautiful.

A great fit for our family
We chose this facility because of the overall look of the facility and the fact that most of their staff members had been here for a very long time. The administrator had been here for over 20 years and that really stuck out to us. The room sizes here are very nice, my mom has been in 2 different sizes and both were great for her needs. The dining room here is beautiful and the food is decent as well. Overall, it is a tough time for care facilities and we appreciate Pennington Gardens and they have done a great job.

They have assisted living and memory care. They gave my mom wonderful care. They were wonderful for her needs at the time. Eventually it became difficult for her to engage in activities because of her health. It was clean and they were friendly.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Arizona regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Arizona regulations for Assisted Living.
