What should families ask on a tour of Scottsdale Personal Care Facility?

Begin with the questions the public record itself raises: ask the manager to show the plan of correction for the health findings listed above and how each fix is checked.

  • Find out whether staff administer medications or only supervise residents who take their own, and who trains them.
  • Ask how many staff are awake in the building between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
  • If your parent is more comfortable in Spanish, ask how many caregivers on each shift speak it.
  • Ask whether a resident who runs out of savings could stay under STAR+PLUS, and at what room-and-board rate.
  • Request the written fee schedule and the size of the last two annual increases.
