What level of care is Hacienda del Rey licensed to provide?

Hacienda del Rey is licensed for directed care across all 144 directed care beds, which in Arizona is the service level for residents with dementia who cannot recognize danger or make basic care decisions.

A directed-care-only license usually means a dedicated memory care community. Ask whether every area is secured and how the community handles residents whose needs move beyond what directed care allows. The three ADHS levels are defined on the ADHS provider type definitions page.

How much does assisted living cost near Hacienda del Rey?

Hacienda del Rey'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. Ask for the base rate, the level-of-care fee schedule and what triggers a move to a higher tier, and get them in the written residency agreement Arizona rules require. 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.

How should families evaluate Hacienda del Rey?
