When our family was forced to find housing for our mother close to the Mayo to facilitate her treatment, it was a confusing and stressful time. We toured many homes, but knew as soon as we met Maria that we had found the best choice. We were impressed with her personal story, the commitment of her caregivers who have been working for her for five years, and her immediate warmth and love. The home is welcoming, the price was incredibly reasonable, and the willingness to go above and beyond was immediately evident. Mom loved her home and her caregivers as much as they loved her. In her final days as she was hospitalized, Maria and her staff visited her in the hospital. Everyone I spoke with at the hospital was amazed by this. We have come to think of them as our family. There’s nothing like trust to give you comfort in a storm. Thank you Maria.

Hands-down, this home is filled with the most compassionate and caring people I could ever imagine taking care of my father-in-law. They go out of their way to make sure their residents have absolutely everything they need, and more. I highly recommend entrusting the care of your loved ones with A Better Place Assisted Living in Scottsdale, Arizona.

One word describes A Better Choice AL, which is kindness. The owner & the staff are all so kind. I have a loved one who's been living there for about 6 months. I visit every few days & no matter who is working or what time I come, I find a patient & warm caregiver. The house is kept clean & residents are are treated with understanding & dignity.
