Atria Bell Court Gardens

I recently moved my parents from San Diego to Tucson. I wanted to find a place for them on the east side that was easy for me to get to. I looked at a lot of places, and this one just felt right for them. It is not pretentious and has a charm about it. The grounds and common areas are lovely and well kept up. The staff that I have encountered thus far have been wonderful. I spent quite a bit of time here prior to my folks moving, to get things ready and bring stuff over. The main receptionist that is there during the day, I have seen the most often and she is fantastic and very caring.As you walk through the halls, the residents are smiling and very welcoming. You have different ages on the elderly spectrum here -- it is Independent Living which worked well for my parents. My Dad is completely independent, whereas my Mom has some dementia and needs assistance with ADL's. They provide basic Independent Living amenities including the emergency pendants and have a home health care agency onsite that contracts out space.The dining room -- as being someone that was an ED at a Senior Living community in San Diego many years ago -- I know this is HUGE with residents. We recently had dinner with my folks this week in their dining room. The servers were moving fast to be responsive to a full dining room of residents. The food was pretty good, and definitely a step above from the place my parents came from in San Diego... tasted more fresh.So far, we really like it (as does my Dad) -- super close to everything, nice staff and lovely residents and community.

We have a very friendly community with supportive staff. I feel well taken care of in the two-plus years I have been a resident. We are well fed and have outstanding programs, including exercise and musical entertainment. Our residence is in a beautiful historic building in well maintained grounds in the incomparable Tucson climate in the Sonoran Desert valley surrounded by four picturesque mountain ranges. It's almost like living in a western movie set. Come for a visit to experience the wonderful life we live every day..
