North Scottsdale Retreat operates as a residential care home and is structured to manage a wide range of medical needs. Staff members remain available throughout the night to monitor residents who are up all night, manage oxygen therapy, handle wound care, and administer specialized diets. The team is trained to work with adults under 60 as well as those coping with advanced dementia, and they can support diabetics whether they use oral medications, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. An on-site podiatry service helps residents maintain foot health without leaving the property.
In addition to medical oversight, the community maintains background-checked staff with an asleep night shift and a fenced rear area for added security. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are equipped to accommodate nearly any mobility level—from simple walker support to two-person transfers, Hoyer lift use, and bed-bound care. This depth of hands-on help allows residents to remain in place even as needs change.
Private and shared rooms are available, and many include a private bathroom, basic furnishings, cable service, and the option for residents to paint or decorate their space. Not every room offers every feature, so families should confirm specific details during a visit.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet general dietary guidelines, and the kitchen is able to integrate physician-ordered special diets when required. Snacks are kept on hand between meals, making it easier for residents to meet nutritional goals and manage blood-sugar levels.
The property offers resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, outdoor smoking areas, and on-site beauty and barber services. Pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
