I’ve lived here for almost 4 years. We enjoyed the most amazing Mother’s Day Celebration this year. 5 Stars! Our chef’s out did themselves. Entertainment was absolutely fantastic. They put together a terrific treat for all of us here at Desert Winds Assisted Living. *****

I love this place. I wish I knew about it sooner for my mama! She’s never been so happy and she’s living her best life now!

Vista Winds Retirement Community is absolutely stunning! I am looking forward to bringing my client into this community. I don’t think there was a window without an exceptional mountain and/or desert view and the actual interiors of these residences are very spacious and upgraded! More importantly, the residents I spoke loved calling this community home! The team is extremely accommodating and responsive to resident needs.

We moved my dad into Desert Winds. He feels right at home there. They take good care of him.

Mom moved in just a few weeks ago and I can already see a difference in her mood and energy level. We went from her sleeping the day away and disengaged from her past activities in an independent environment to caregivers checking on her, and staff and residents are welcoming like a family. The dining room food is delicious. They'll wake you for breakfast and remind you of an upcoming activity. There are layers of services you can add to personalize your loved ones care. Activity staff are fun and like working to improve their residents lives. Management is organized and available and caring. Mom already loves it at Desert Winds Assisted Living. And I have confidence I can leave Mom in their care and trust she is well, safe and happy. Big thanks to Nora, Debra and Courtney, and all staff. They all are amazing!

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Arizona asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.

Arizona law requires that we provide you with the following disclosure notice.

We are in the business of referring residents to assisted living facilities and assisted living homes. We will be paid by the assisted living facility or assisted living home if you move into one of the referred assisted living facilities or assisted living homes. The fee we receive from the assisted living facility or assisted living home into which you move typically ranges from 50 to 80 percent of your first month's rent and care charges. We do have a current business relationship but we do not have a common ownership or control in, or any other financial, business, management or familial relationship with, any of the assisted living homes and assisted living facilities to which we are referring you.

By providing us with a written or electronic notice, you have the right to terminate our services to you at any time, including our use of your personal information. If you terminate our services, we will not be entitled to any fee for any move-in you make after the date of the termination notice unless either:

1. The assisted living facility or assisted living home you choose within the next twelve months is one that we specifically identify and refer to you after we evaluate your profile and requests but before we receive your notice of termination.

2. You communicate with us before you move into the assisted living facility or assisted living home.
