I am/was a resident of this facility

I lived at Lifestream for 3 years. The apartments are like patio homes with a carport just outside the front door. The residents are nice, very friendly and helpful. The staff was helpful and caring. I moved in during the pandemic. I moved there because my doctors recommended getting help with meals and housekeeping. I am a vegetarian. When i visited there were vegetarian options for meals. They had daily entrees for lunch and dinner and available everyday options. The available everyday menu shrunk during the pandemic and very limited vegetarian options. The meals are included in the rent. Because they did not offer many meals that I could eat i ended up buying my own food and not eating in the dining área. I was paying for food that I could not eat. I asked if could not pay for the meals and was told no they didn’t have meal plans the meals were optional and the rent would be the same. I felt like i was being ripped off. I chose to move out. The food was ok when i visited. The dining area was closed due to the pandemic. When it reopened, the quality was not good. The food is cooked at another LifeStream property and delivered daily to the North Phoenix property. 3 stars are for the caring staff and warm, friendly community. If you are looking for a safe, friendly community then this might work for you. I moved out 1 year ago.

My brother is really happy right now. He's been in Madison Meadows for just about a month now. They are really friendly and helpful. His room is perfect for what he needs. It's not really big, but it was right for him. I have no complaints. They fixed everything up before he got in there, and everything was good. I do know that they have activities available, but he hasn't participated in any because of his condition right now. They have plenty of food; sometimes it's a bit too much, actually. They have a pool, an exercise room, a laundromat, and a library.

I visited this facility

Beatitudes Campus was nice. I liked it. They sold out of the efficiency rooms, so you have to go on a waiting list for one of those. The lady who took us around was very nice, and the facilities were fair. They're older buildings, but I saw a one-bedroom. It's not that beautiful, but it was OK and pretty nice. I've been there a couple of times, because I knew somebody who lived there. It's pretty clean, but it's not modern looking. The structure seems OK, as well. Each building had its own purpose. There are a couple of buildings for independent, there is one building for memory loss, and there is another one for assisted. That's the way it was laid out.

My Mom has been at this facility for three years. My brothers and myself have been very pleased with our Moms care. Alma has been an awesome caregiver. She is very compassionate and caring with all the patients. The home is always kept neat and clean. In addition, the meals are planned and homemade.

Phoenix Independent Living Communities Cost

The median cost of independent living in Phoenix for a single-occupancy apartment is $1,987/month (SeniorHomes.com - 2015). This monthly cost typically includes rent, utilities, dining, housekeeping and transportation.

Phoenix Attractions

Along with amazing weather and low prices, Phoenix has great shopping, endless blue skies and a laid-back way of life. Apart from thunderstorms, which are spectacular to watch, and the rare tornado, the most inconvenient aspect of Phoenix independent living is the requirement to carry bottled water around in the summer months in order to beat the heat and stay hydrated. For those wishing to take a break from the desert floor, escape to the mountains is less than an hour away. Tonto National Forest occupies 3 million acres of beautiful scenery from 1,300 to 7,900 feet in elevation. The park offers trout fishing in the cool shade of tall pine trees in Mogollon Rim, the setting for Zane Grey’s classic, “Under the Tonto Rim.” The city’s Desert Ridge Marketplace and Desert Sky Mall are the main destinations for avid shoppers, offering a host of stores. Shoppers who prefer designer names flock to the Biltmore Fashion Park, where stores with hot names like Cole Haan and Escada are clustered around Saks Fifth Avenue. Downtown Phoenix has a number of fine restaurants in many different gastronomic genres, including Mexican and exotic flavors like Brazilian and French.

Phoenix Senior Activities

More than a dozen senior centers cater to residents enjoying Phoenix independent living. These facilities offer nutrition programs, lunchtime meals, social activities, advocacy and educational opportunities to citizens 60 years of age and older and to adults with disabilities. The Seniors Centers website has links to each one of the 15 facilities offering extensive information about individual programs, menus and activities. The city’s Senior Services department also offers advice on housing, elder abuse, discrimination complaints, victim services, homelessness assistance and seniors with disabilities. A service in the private sector, Elder Helpers, is a network of more than 10,000 volunteers who provide free help to seniors by running errands, carrying groceries, giving rides, helping around the house and providing whatever assistance is necessary. This is a community that really cares about its seniors.

Phoenix Medical Facilities

Today’s seniors are not only living longer, they are also aiming for higher levels of fitness than previous generations. High quality medical care is therefore a top priority for over-50s looking forward to Phoenix independent living. Communities with nearby medical schools tend to have a good quality of healthcare across the board. Phoenix is no exception. The University of Arizona Medical Center was ranked by U.S. News and World Report as one of the nation’s best hospitals for the care of older adults and 11 other specialties on their list of top hospitals for 2012-2013.

Phoenix Transportation

With ample bus lines, light rail and special transportation services like Dial-A-Ride for the elderly and people with disabilities, it is easy to get around town. The city is also friendly for those who prefer to carry out their Phoenix independent living in a car or on a bicycle. There are more than 25,000 parking spaces distributed downtown in public garages and on the street in metered parking spaces. Metered parking operates Mondays to Saturdays between 8am and 8pm.

Summing Up

The Valley of the Sun would an ideal place for Phoenix independent living in retirement if all it had to offer were pleasant climate and a low cost of living. Added value comes from beautiful nearby national parks, fantastic senior activities, excellent medical care and senior-friendly transport.
