About North Central Shores Assisted Living

North Central Shores is an assisted living home in Phoenix, Arizona, offering 24-hour full-service care in a newly constructed 8,000 square foot facility with 10 private bedrooms. The community provides physician-directed medications, custom-designed care plans, assistance with personal hygiene, laundry service, and meals prepared to accommodate individual preferences and dietary needs.

Each private room features a roll-in bathroom, cable television with Wi-Fi, queen or twin bed, and individual furnishings. Common areas include a 440-square-foot activity room with a party kitchen for events and gatherings, a gallery dining room with commissioned local artwork, a demonstration kitchen, and a spacious great room. The facility has extra-wide hallways and doorways designed for wheelchair and walker access, with emergency call systems in each room.

Located on the Arizona Canal near Central and Dunlap, the community is surrounded by native desert vegetation including mesquite and paloverde trees, with extensive landscaping featuring yellow bells, bougainvillea, and lantana. Residents have access to over 800 square feet of outdoor living space on east and west verandas, with views of the canal where neighbors pass daily on walking and biking paths.

The staff includes state-certified caregivers, an experienced assisted living home manager, and a registered nurse on staff. Care plans are customized following medical evaluation and family input on food preferences, activities, sleep patterns, and behavioral needs. The community accommodates a limited number of cooperative memory care residents and maintains flexible policies on bedtimes, family visits, and resident preferences for personal care within state requirements.

The building features modern safety systems including fire alarms with horns and strobes, a sprinkler system, and smoke detection directly connected to a commercial monitoring service and the Phoenix Fire Department. Two full kitchens support meal preparation and accommodate special dietary needs and physician-approved supplements.

I am so thankful that I found North Central Shores for my stepmother. From my first visit I was highly impressed by the beauty and cleanliness of the house, and the professionalism and caring of the owner and the staff. My stepmom felt safe and cared for, and I felt so much better knowing she was in a place where people really cared about her physical and emotional safety. I was always welcomed when I visited or called, and Tom and Manuela were always available when I had questions or concerns. I can't thank them enough for the care and support my stepmom and I received.

My sister-in-law was at this facility for quite a while and our family was so thankful for the care she received. She required a high level of care and North Central Shores not only met but surpassed our hopes and expectations. The entire staff was amazing, checking on her every few hours, delivering excellent medical care and asking how they could make her more comfortable. Our family was continually kept informed of her medical condition/needs, even on the smallest changes. The facility was always very clean and organized, yet made to feel like a home-away-from-home. My sister-in-law was quite picky about her meals, but she truly enjoyed the food here. The cooks would often cater to what she liked and baked special desserts like peach cobbler and lemon meringue pie. If you have a loved one that needs an assisted living facility, North Central Shores will not disappoint!
