Hacienda De Luna Assisted Living

Having been a senior living referral agent for 14 years, I want to say that Hacienda de Luna is one of the best care homes in Tucson. I am always looking for people in the senior industry that do their jobs for the right reasons....helping seniors stay safe and allowing them to live with dignity. The owner/manager/caregivers are the best and their prices are fair. I highly recommend this home!

The decision to entrust the full-time care of a loved one is not an easy one to make! Couple that with hearing so many stories from other people who have had negative experiences makes it even more difficult. We were faced with this late last year when my Dad’s health needs became more than we could handle. We were so fortunate to find Hacienda de Luna early on in our search. The empathy and understanding we received during that first tour from Lynn and Miranda, the owner and the manager, was comforting. What was even better was seeing first hand, day in and day out the level of compassion and care that he received from everyone. We always were made to feel welcome regardless of what time it was. We also heard from other residents who told us about stays at other locations that were not good and then they found this place and stayed. I cannot tell how much peace all this brought us! The day he passed away we shared genuine tears with his caregivers, we will never forget how we felt over those months!

My father was transferred to hospice care from the V.A. hospital about 3 weeks ago. He had been staying at a local Brookdale, and I thought I could just move him into the Brookdale memory care facility -- but the cost was prohibitive and I learned that the caregiver-patient ratio was not the best. A local adultt placement service specialist helped me to find Hacienda de Luna, and I could not be happier. The facility was small and family-like. Every time I came in, someone was making a home-cooked meal in the kitchen. The caregivers in the house my father was in (House 2) were professional, courteous and patient, even when he, in his dementia, pulled their hair as they tried to feed him. Amanda was especially outstanding in her care; she's someone who has a true vocation for the kind of work that she does, and she loves it, loves the people in her care. When my father finally passed away, the whole team was compassionate, willing to give us all the time we needed to stay with him after he passed, to take our time in emptying the room. This was both the most cost-effective option for my dad's care, and truly the best facility we could find. I will always be grateful to the kind people who helped my father spend his final days in comfort and peace.
