MAYFAIR EDEN HOMES INC

Mayfair Eden Homes is a licensed assisted living home on South Lindsay Road in Gilbert, 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 Lindsay home sits on a 1.5-acre lot in Gilbert surrounded by mature pecan and citrus trees. The house has high ceilings, wide hallways, and ten large private rooms, each with a 55-inch television, high-speed internet, cable, and a newly remodeled walk-in ADA-compliant bathroom. Mayfair Eden keeps a caregiver-to-resident ratio of one to three or four with round-the-clock supervision, and each resident has a personalized care plan.

Meals use fresh ingredients and are approved by a dietitian, with accommodations for special diets. The large backyard has a covered patio and a walking path, the main living room has a 65-inch smart TV, and the home uses aromatherapy with essential oils. The activity calendar includes games, puzzles, bingo nights, and holiday and birthday celebrations. 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 Gilbert address keeps the community within reach of the area's hospitals, shopping, and services.
