Yes. Brookdale North Scottsdale holds an active ADHS Assisted Living Center license, number AL7714C, for 200 residents, as shown on AZ Care Check on October 24, 2026. The current license period runs from June 1, 2026 to May 31, 2027.

What level of care is Brookdale North Scottsdale licensed to provide?

Brookdale North Scottsdale is licensed for supervisory care, personal care and directed care. Of its 200 licensed beds, 30 are directed care (the Arizona level for memory care) and 170 are personal care.

This mixed license is common for larger Valley communities: residents who need help with daily activities live in the assisted living side, and residents with dementia live in a secured directed care neighborhood, so a resident whose memory declines may be able to move within the same community. The three ADHS levels are defined on the ADHS provider type definitions page.

How much does assisted living cost near Brookdale North Scottsdale?

Brookdale North Scottsdale's prices are not part of the state record, so ask the community for its current written rates. Across the Phoenix metro, this site's cost guide puts typical assisted living at about $3,200 to $6,800 a month, with memory care (directed care) usually $1,000 to $2,000 a month higher.

Because this license includes directed care, expect the memory care neighborhood to be priced above the assisted living apartments. Most Valley communities charge a base rent plus a care-level fee that rises with assessed needs; ask how often residents are reassessed and how much notice you get before a rate change. ALTCS, Arizona's Medicaid long-term care program, can pay for care services (not room and board) at participating facilities — see ALTCS eligibility; wartime veterans and surviving spouses may also qualify for VA Aid and Attendance.
