How much does assisted living cost near Orchard Pointe at Arrowhead?

Orchard Pointe at Arrowhead'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.
