Every experience with the Sales Manager at Woodland Palms has being exceptional. When I toured their community, it was clean, the residents seemed well taken care, and the staff were friendly. They have great events, with genuine individuals!

My mom was a resident there 3 years ago. They over medicated her and didn’t realize until the end of the day when they did a med count. Once they realized at the end of the day they checked in on her and she was semi conscious. This tells me no one checked in on her all day. They sent her to the emergency room where she ended up aspirating and died about a week later. This was reported to the state but they were only fined $500 for this neglect. The person that made the mistake was later honored with employee of the month 😡.

I highly recommend Woodland Palms Memory Care to anyone looking for a safe, loving place, for their loved ones who require assistance due to memory issues. My mother-in-law lived at Woodland Palms for 3 years, until she recently passed away due to Alzheimer's disease. All the employees, including the front office staff, showed my mother-in-law patience at all times, and provided such good care for her. Woodland Palms has many activities going on every day to keep the residents active, and entertained. They also have numerous events that family members can participate in, which are also very fun! Thank you Woodland Palms for everything you did for my mother-in-law. My family and I appreciate every one of you!

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.
