Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center

Last verified: October 2026 against ADHS AZ Care Check · License AL4590C

Is Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center licensed by the State of Arizona?

Yes. Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center holds an active ADHS Assisted Living Center license, number AL4590C, for 183 residents, as shown on AZ Care Check on October 24, 2026. The current license period runs from November 1, 2025 to October 31, 2026.

What level of care is Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center licensed to provide?

Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center is licensed for supervisory care, personal care and directed care. Of its 183 licensed beds, 56 are directed care (the Arizona level for memory care) and 127 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.

What do ADHS inspection records show for Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center?

AZ Care Check lists 4 ADHS inspections for Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center since October 1, 2024. 1 of the inspection summaries report cited deficiencies and 2 report none; the most recent was a complaint inspection on July 11, 2025.

By type: 3 complaint, 1 modification, 1 compliance (annual). Complaint investigations are opened when anyone files a complaint, so a large community like this one (183 beds, the 13th largest center in the two counties) will usually have more of them than a small one. Read the deficiency details, not just the count.

How much does assisted living cost near Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center?

Royal Oaks Assisted Living Center'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.
