MAYFAIR EDEN HOMES INC

Mayfair Eden Homes is a licensed assisted living home on North 72nd Street in Mesa, Arizona, operated by Mayfair Eden Homes. State licensing records from the Arizona Department of Health Services list a capacity of 10 residents and approval to provide directed care, the highest of Arizona's three assisted living service levels, which allows the community to serve residents who are unable to direct their own care, including many people living with dementia.

Mayfair Eden's 72nd Street home in northeast Mesa is a family-style house with ten private rooms and three bathrooms. Rooms are newly painted with upgraded floors, ceiling fans, 55-inch televisions, high-speed internet, and cable. The backyard has a rose garden and a covered patio for walks and time outdoors, and the main living room has a 70-inch smart TV. Mayfair Eden keeps a caregiver-to-resident ratio of one to three or four with supervision 24 hours a day.

Residents get three home-cooked meals a day from dietitian-approved menus, with snacks between meals, and weekly activities include games, puzzles, dominoes, bingo, and holiday and birthday celebrations. The home is about five minutes from Banner Baywood Medical Center. Visiting hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. In Arizona, assisted living homes are residential settings that serve ten or fewer residents, and they are licensed by the Department of Health Services at the same three service levels as larger centers.

Supervisory care covers general supervision and help in an emergency, personal care adds hands-on help with activities such as bathing, dressing, and medications, and directed care is for residents who can no longer recognize danger or direct their own care. A small home usually means a shared living room and dining table, fewer residents per caregiver, and a quieter daily routine than a large community.

Assisted living suits people who want help with daily routines such as medications, bathing, and dressing while living in a house-like setting and as much independence as possible. Someone who needs daily skilled nursing or intensive rehabilitation may be better served by a skilled nursing facility. Arizona rules require an assisted living facility to prepare a written service plan for each resident that describes the care and services to be provided, and to review and update it as needs change.

Families can ask to take part in that review and to learn who to call when something in the plan no longer fits. Families can look up a community's license and inspection history on the state's AZ Care Check website before a visit, and reading recent inspection reports can show how a community has responded to any past findings. The Mesa address keeps the community within reach of the area's hospitals, shopping, and services.
