Who are you searching for?
Residential care homes in Glendale may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Glendale care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.
Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Glendale, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.
We are also serving Residential Care Home facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Arrowhead and Sun City Lakes Fe.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Phoenix, Avondale or Peoria Estates.

Residential Care Home
I only have praise for this home, it's owners and care givers. This choice is allowing me to sleep better at night, knowing my Father is well cared for.
I discovered this place from a good friend who's mother living here. Its a very nice home with lots of windows and a big backyard. As soon as i walked in the house smelt amazing and it didn't feel like I was in an actually assistant living home, it felt like an actual home. My father loves being here and the family loves having him around. Every time the weekend comes around I look forward to visiting dad and spending lunch with him.
5 stars ... My mother has been there a short time, but I am extremely happy with Sonoran Hills! They have made me feel right at home. I love it so far!!!! Best decision I have made for my mom
