MD Senior Living

During these difficult times of the Covid 19 pandemic moving an elderly parent is even more challenging!!! However the caring, efficient management and staff of North Scottsdale Retreat went above and beyond to make sure that my elderly mother received the best of care in her new home. From finding needed equipment and medications to even getting her favorite foods the management went beyond expectations to help assure the best possible care for my mother. Thank you all for all you do. I highly recommend this facility!!!

When your parent is most in need of care, respect and compassion you want the very best. The Retreat is the model. There is good food and joy to go along. Of course, there is music. The end of life should be attended with all of these. The staff should not be called "staff" but family.

I was so fortunate to find North Scottsdale Retreat. Both Management and Staff are “Family”. They take such good care of my Mom. The NSR family does so much to make sure Mom is happy. They make her favorite foods, they provide companionship, they watch baseball with her and hours of cards and Yahtzee. The level of care is excellent. They are so in tune with Mom’s health and emotional needs. I am sleeping so much better at night knowing Mom is in a caring, loving home. Thank you NSR Family for all you do for Mom and me.

This is a fantastic assisted living home. They have a nurse on staff, and they care about their residents. They always have an awake staff and two caregivers during the day. What makes them unique is they hire more caregivers if the care is needed!

Very professional and kind. Couldn’t be more pleased!

This place is amazing! I have not seen my grandma so happy in a very long time. I went to visit my grandma the other day and they were having a Spa day! She was so happy, they offered me a glass of wine to sit and hang out with her. There is a care giver there by the name of [name removed] she is so amazing and sweet. My grandma is constantly talk about how well [name removed] takes care of her. The food here is so good. I stayed and ate with my grandma. I was so impressed I felt like I was at a restaurant they made her food made to order. During my visit I also got the pleasure to meet the director [name removed]. She is everything my mom and grandma raved about. She was bringing homemade fudge per a request of another resident. This place is absolutely amazing we truly couldn’t find a better place for my grandma to live.

Best Group home in the valley hands down. From aesthetics to the care this company delivers on all aspects and is always trying to improve. I would highly recommend them.

My Dad has been living at the North Scottsdale Retreat for close to a year. It’s a beautiful, friendly home with a family feel. After having him in a large assisted living for a very short period of time where he was list in the shuffle, we could not be happier!!

caregivers are compassionate and top notch! Management knowledgeable and wonderful to deal with.always available

My dad and mom have been living at the Retreat since Oct. 2018. My father was suffering from an aggressive cancer, and in Jan. was placed in Hospice for 1 week (who came to the Retreat!) and passed. My mom continues to live here and suffers from dementia. Prior to coming to the Retreat, they resided in 2 other facilities, and the Retreat demonstrates, by far, the most genuinely compassionate, personalized, reliable and holistic set of services in an intimate environment. The staff continues to go over & above to understand the unique behaviors & interests of each resident and innovate creative ways to engage and excite each resident individually and in group activities. For example, one resident wanted to build a garden fountain...the staff hired their landscaper to work with a resident to build it and, today, it adorns the front entrance. Most important, is their intimate knowledge and day-to-day tracking of your loved one's changes in health. Not only do they have in-house physician and RX services, but the staff is well trained in identifying and mitigating the medical challenges our aging parents face on a daily basis. All the meals are home-cooked and residents can request their favorites. They build their grocery list off of resident needs and preferences. They even make resident favorite 'treats' at homes and bring them in... like home-made fudge. Enough of the examples....bottom line: having experienced 2 other facilities, the Retreat is over the top in personalized care-giving for your loved one.

I cannot say enough good things about Endeavor North Scottsdale Retreat. We recently placed my 88 year old dad here after he struggled with living alone for over 3 years. We are so very pleased with the outcome of his move to this beautiful group home/retreat. It is unlike any other group home in the area because of its location, beautiful surroundings, lovely interior, gourmet meals, and wonderful staff and caregivers associated with Endeavor. He has his own beautifully appointed room with a large television and windows looking out over the desert landscape surrounding the house. The back patio is a great place for him to sit and enjoy the desert ambiance which he loves to do. The best thing about North Scottsdale Retreat is the people who work here. They are very caring, loving and attentive to my father. There are caregivers on duty 24/7 at North Scottsdale Retreat which was also very important as my dad is a wanderer. Plus it is secured and monitored. All of this was very important to us and we really feel we could not have made a better choice in a group home. This 'retreat' is very affordable with different price points available, and the quality of care provided for dollars spent is of very high value.

Our family is very pleased with N Scottsdale Retreat. This home is everything you would want for your loved one and more. Each and every member of the staff is attentive, professional, kind and caring and they all go over and beyond to make you feel welcomed. I feel truly blessed that we found this home. Thank you for taking such good care of my Dad! You all are amazing!

I had to unexpectedly move my Mother from another Group Home and found myself in a very stressful situation. From the minute I entered Central Scottsdale Assisted Living I was at ease. The home is beautifully decorated and minimizes fall risk – no carpets and guard rails in bathrooms. The staff keeps the facility meticulously clean, and serves meals so that it is appetizing, & nutritious. Perhaps most important to me was that the staff treated my Mother with dignity and was extremely compassionate. When it was necessary to admit my Mother to Hospice, they always kept me informed of developments and were patient with my Mother. Alzheimer’s patient and those with aphasia from a stroke can be difficult and disruptive - I never heard or saw anyone raise their voice to my Mother. I often came unannounced and am very impressed with the way Diana [Removed] runs her business – she is professional and you will have peace of mind knowing your loved one is being cared for by Diana and her staff.

i had a great tour with this community. I liked the layout of how the kitchen and living room is close to each other. I was able to talk with the owner over the phone but did not get to meet and greet. My tour guide was s caretaker that lived on the community property. Everything seemed to going very well here.

The care my mom got over this past year was absolutely excellent, they went out of their way to watch her when she first arrived so they knew her pattern to see if things were going in the right direction. They did an excellent job. They have always kept us informed.

We toured 4 facilities because we had to find a place for my mother on very short notice. This one took top spot hands down.

North Scottsdale Retreat is beautiful and all of the staff very attentive to the residents. Each and every caregiver is very caring and helpful to my mom as well as all of our family & friends that visit. As close to being “home” as possible, Could not have found a better place. My 84 year old mother is very content with her new life style at the home. [Name removed]

My mother has been a resident for two years. Management and quality of care has been stable for the last 9-12 months. Caregivers [name removed], especially, and [name removed] are consistently kind and Competent. They exhibit great patience.
