About Handmaker Home For The Aging

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Handmaker Home for the Aging in Tucson delivers two core levels of support—assisted living and memory care. Residents can receive regular physical therapy, recreational therapy, and specialized diabetes management without leaving the campus. Short-term respite stays are available for individuals who need temporary care, and the community maintains 24-hour staffing that can respond through an emergency call system installed in resident areas. A secured environment is in place for those living with cognitive challenges, helping to reduce wandering risks while still allowing residents to move about freely within designated areas.

In addition to daily care, the community provides on-site nursing, medication management, and hospice coordination when needed. Licensed therapists offer speech and occupational therapy, and an ambulatory care program supports residents who need help with mobility. Incontinence services are offered discreetly, and laundry and dry-cleaning are handled by staff. Families can access counseling services, and Handmaker’s continuing-care approach allows residents to transition to higher levels of medical support without changing addresses.

Apartments are available in studio and efficiency layouts, and select units feature wheelchair-accessible showers, complimentary Wi-Fi, and direct access to outdoor sitting areas. Because floor plans and upgrade options differ, not every accommodation includes every feature, so prospective residents should verify specific details during a tour.

Daily meals are included in the rate, with kosher and vegetarian selections offered at each sitting. Menus are prepared to align with physician-ordered dietary plans, and staff can accommodate most special nutrition requests when provided in advance.

Residents have use of an activity center for structured programs, frequent bingo games, and various clubs that encourage social engagement. A library and computer lounge offers quiet reading space, internet access, and room for small group meetings.

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a mix of reviews, with prevalent themes of dedicated staff and a welcoming environment. Multiple reviewers praised the facility for being clean and professionally managed, emphasizing the commitment of employees toward resident care. The physical and occupational therapy services received special mention for their effectiveness and the compassionate approach of the therapists. Some reviewers highlighted excellent patient engagement and rich activity offerings that enhance resident well-being. The food quality also garnered positive remarks, with several visitors noting the deliciousness and variety available.

Despite positive feedback, the community has areas identified as needing improvement. A recurring concern is the understaffing, particularly in the Skilled Nursing Unit, which some say affects the level and timeliness of patient care. There were instances where this environment was less accommodating for patients with specific needs, such as those with traumatic brain injuries, underlining a potential gap in specialized support. Additionally, multiple residents and their families expressed dissatisfaction with medication management.

For others, the attentiveness of individual staff members made a significant impact, contributing positively to residents’ experiences. The consistency in care and frequent communication with families provided reassurance for those with loved ones in the community. However, it is clear from the reviews that while many have had satisfactory experiences, the community could enhance its services by addressing staffing, communication, and specialized care shortcomings.
