Whitestone Senior Living in Mesa, AZ, provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, giving residents access to individualized support that ranges from routine daily assistance to comprehensive management of advanced dementia conditions. The team is equipped to handle wandering behaviors at any time of day, elopement risks, combative or other behavioral concerns, and residents who remain awake throughout the night. Medical oversight covers wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, and diabetic management whether on oral medication, insulin injections, or sliding-scale regimens. The community also accepts residents under 60 and those with psychiatric diagnoses, ensuring continuity of care without the need for outside placement.
Continuous clinical supervision is supported by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24 hours a day. Night shifts include both awake and asleep staff, backed by door alarms, fenced perimeters, pull-cord systems, and PERS devices for immediate alerts. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the team can perform every level of transfer support—from standby help with a walker to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound individuals. An Activity Director coordinates daily engagement while on-site security maintains a controlled environment.
Accommodations are designed for practicality and comfort. Floor plans may include private bathrooms, furnished spaces, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every room has every feature. Routine housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the residential package, allowing residents to focus on health and daily activities rather than upkeep.
Dining services emphasize nutrition management as an extension of clinical care. Residents can choose between a set menu and made-to-order selections, with snacks available throughout the day and the option for in-room dining. The kitchen accommodates gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puree, and thickened-liquid textures, as well as broader diet modifications prescribed by physicians or dietitians.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and outdoor smoking areas. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Additional conveniences range from an on-site barber and beauty shop to a movie room, internet access, and communal gardens. Religious services are held on site, and the community accepts ALTCS and holds a behavioral license. Transportation options are available for medical appointments and personal errands, rounding out a service package that supports both medical and day-to-day needs.
