Best experience for the family at a very difficult time

Avista provided end of life care for my father. They did a wonderful job managing his care in cooperation with hospice. He did not like the food but he was a picky eater and also didn't want to eat very much anyway. He was too weak to participate in activities. The cost was very high due to his medical needs. I am very grateful for the care he received. The staff was very friendly and they really tried to make him feel welcome and comfortable even though he was not happy to have to be there. But it was the best place for him to be.

Best decision ever

First of all I would like to say that this place is just what Mom needed. Mom wasn't doing as well as she could have been living at home by herself. She has neuropathy which can make it unbearable to walk and she also suffers from congestive heart failure. When Mom decided it was time for assistance, we took a tour and SHE decided this was the place to be. We purchased a mobility wheelchair so that she could go anywhere she wanted to and now she has the freedom to even enjoy evenings on the patio! Another factor in choosing Powell Place is that Mom was able to bring her two furry companions with her. I cannot say enough about the caring, attentive staff here. Everyone is so friendly and compassionate. Mom has been here 14 months as of today and she is thriving in this community.

Compassionate staff!

My father-in-law is a resident here and doing very well. They offer activities and encourage him to join in. The staff seems to care an awfully lot about the residents. I would absolutely recommend Powell Place.

They Have Amazing Staff

4 to 5 months ago I had my loved one here. The care was so amazing . Jessica was the best help and the most caring person. I needed furniture for the room and Jessica helped go out and buy some. Chelsea the activities director had something going on everyday. One forth of July I came to visit and a storm was coming and it started to rain. Chelsea notice my window was opened and offered to roll them up for me. I gave her my keys and she closed the windows but she was soaking wet after coming from outside. I was so impressed with how much they care here! We had the best experience!

She Is Safe And Getting Good Care..

My mother is doing well at this community and I am pleased. They are caring for her very well. I do not live in the same state, they have really given me a peace of mind knowing she is safe. The community looks great, they keep everything very clean. The staff has been good, the commutation could be a little better. She is trying some new activities. The food is fine, its not 5 stars restaurant, but it is nice. Out of all the places I looked at, this was one of the best.

It is my pleasure to be part of this community.

These caregivers are all very, very kind and loving. They have the best interest of the Powell community person at heart. They go out of their way to help others. It is my pleasure to be part of this community. It is not my permanent home, but they have done an excellent job here, and they are to be commended for their service to the community.

Over the years, several family members have found their home at Powell Place and we feel very fortunate for such a terrific staff.

Powell Place is so wonderful, our family are "frequent stayers" - beginning when the facility first opened in Payson with my Grandmother; she was the 3rd tenant to move in. Since then my husband's mother found a home at Powell and my father and mother both stayed for a short time while my father was on the mend from a fall and he needed help caring for my mother who was in early stages of Dementia. Once better, they returned home and as time moved on, my mother passed and my father moved to Payson to live on his own, until the need arose that it was apparent he needed assistance and a watchful, caring staff. Of course, once again, I turned to Powell to take care of him. In my experience, Powell Place has only improved over the years. and I would highly recommend to any family with a loved one needing an assisted living environment. There is always an activity or two and the staff are wonderful at engaging the residents. Powell feels like a personal home - no other words more fitting can be said.

This facility is fantastic. The staff is very attentive, kind and caring. Jessica [removed] when way above and beyond to help a friend, who is living there, get a VA benefit. If it hadn't been for her, this would never have happened. She has been a godsend. My friend loves living there and is continually raving about the staff. Thank you Powell Place for taking such good care of my friend and giving me peace of mind.

small friendly place

Nice smaller facility which allows for staff to know your loved one and personalize care to address their needs. Very friendly and caring staff as evidenced by their interactions with residents....even when they don't know someone is watching or listening.

Review of Powell Place in Payson, AZ

It is so well received. Great people, residents and building is done up very nicely. I work at a senior apt. in Payson which is also very nice. I put Powell House right up there with Majestic. Payson is so fortunate to have both places in our lovely town. So much better than 10 years ago when we moved here to Payson. I believe Chris was the girl who runs the place. Very nice and pleasant.

Outstanding Community / 5 stars all the way!!!

My mother resided in this community from May 2014 through December 2014. I won't call this a facility because a facility does not provide the attention and personal care that is available at Powell Place. This is indeed a community of caring providers. During this time the Powell Place Staff provided my mother with loving care and attention. They flawlessly supervised her many medications and attended doctor visits with her. She was provided with healthy, attractive, well balanced meals and they did everything possible to make her comfortable. The staff not only provided high end care, but this care was provided with a personal interest and love not found in other "facilities". Russ, Jessica, and Kelly are without a doubt the "Dream Team" that makes it happen with the love and attention that our loved ones deserve. 5 stars all the way!!!

I have toured many places for my father, but I knew instantly that this was home. I got to observe the compassion and knowledge of the staff during my tour, including when they did not even realize I was watching. Unfortunately my father passed away before we could move him in. I HIGHLY recommend this place. Trust me, at least take a tour and you will understand. God bless you all!

My family and I were highly impressed with the house when we first toured it. I love the level of knowledge, education, experience and most imprtantly compassion I saw from the staff. My mother is truly happy, though at first she did not like the idea. Now I can hardly keep her on the phone she stays so ACTIVE, yes ACTIVE and she loves it! HIGHLY suggest to just tour this place.

Brains & Compassion!

I was overly impressed with not only the knowledge, experience and education of the staff, but most importantly the compassion of the staff. They won me over when I toured the house for my mother. My mom is truly happy now. At first she was hesitant to move into an assisted living facility, but now shew loves it there. She stays so busy I hardly get my calls answered or responses to my emails. And yes, this is a GREAT thing. She is living again! Thank you, whole heartedly, to all the staff there.
