I have a friend who has been here for a while And I've been quite happy with the staff but especially nurse Cindy who is so kind to the patients and to the visitors. I have had a lot of medical problems and been admitted to hospitals in nursing homes quite a bit so when I get to a place like this where I feel comfortable and safe and people care it makes a big difference.

My sister is there for an unknown illness that is affecting her blood pressure. Care is inconsistent: medication is delivered late and dosage is irregular, she contracted a bacterial infection while there and they aren't even giving her the antibiotics when scheduled. She needs help going into the bathroom and has to wait up to a half hour for someone to answer the call. The doctors seem to be caring and thorough but the nursing staff needs supervision.

Have my mom here and boy is it the nicest rehab centers she's ever been! Everyone who works there is nice and helpful. It's so clean and they outdid themselves with the Christmas decor!! Makes me happy that they give their patients an environment that helps them stay with the times, seasons, holidays while in there getting better.

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.

Sending your request confirms that you received the notice above. By submitting, you're okay with us and Life Care Center Of Yuma reaching out by phone, email or text.Always free for families. If you move in, the community you chose pays us a referral fee, never you; any nearby communities we suggest are chosen by your answers, never by what they pay us.
