Such a gorgeous place! They have a new administrator Terry who is great. He brings a smile with him wherever he goes which makes the atmosphere happy and positive. The activities director Joel is amazing and there is always something fun going on. This is just a great place to be and I’m so happy with all of the positive changes that have been happening!

This is a physical therapy rehabilitation, long term care facility. For the most part they are ok . The physical therapy part is astounding my Fiancee was able to walk out of there. However the nursing part needs major work . It took almost a day for them to get her right medication and when they finally did the ended up running out of some of her meds she was lucky that she had me to stay on top of things, I wonder about the ones who have no one to be in their corner how do they fair .

I am honor to be part the staff at The Citadel Senior Living Community for 12.5 years. Some of our staff have been working at The Citadel since the doors first opened. The staff of the Citadel goes above and beyond to help each other and our residents in whatever the task may be.We are one big family caring for each other. The best part of the Citadel is we are a continuing care campus, we means we offer independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing . Independence when you want it, assistance when you need it.

I have been to numerous assisted living communities with my family members recently. I can say that the Citadel was the most welcoming and friendly experience weve had from the moment we walked in we were treated like family.The community was very well kept the staff was great and it was very reasonably priced.The woman who gave us our tour went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable we had no pressure to sign up no rushing through to get to the next tour. She sat with us for almost 2 hours answering all of our questions and concerns from medical to the upcoming weeks menu.I highly recommend the Citadel to anyone who is looking for not just an assisted living for a family member but a place that makes you feel like one .

My wife recently passed away in late February. The care givers were like her sisters. They loved and cared for her and she loved them. She was in assisted living at the Citadel for 8 years due to Huntingtons Disease. For many years she was able to walk and help others less fortunate but as time went on she gradually lost almost all coordination and even the ability to swallow. The care givers hand fed her and did all they could and I cant begin to tell you how grateful I am that they were there for her. I loved her and miss her greatly. You wont make a mistake using this facility. w. schneider

The Citadel has a great staff that is friendly and attentive. You can tell that they care deeply about all the residents. They have a variety of activities for residents so they can find various activities to participate in. There is even an in-house country store that the residents run themselves, a library where they can check out books, a billiards room, several other t.v. and sitting rooms to socialize and, or for special occasions or when more family comes to town to visit all at once or for residents to socialize together. Another great thing at the Citadel is the private dining room residents can reserve for special occasions and private parties. The Citadel has a warm, inviting, and comfortable atmosphere. It doesnt feel like a sterile hospital environment at all. It feels like Grandmamas classy home.

I have been in the senior health care industry for over 10 years. As a RN, it is of utmost importance that client care and dignity are at the top of the list.Under the leadership of Rebecca Brandon and her fabulous team, I have personally witnessed the Citadel transform into a top notch retirement community. I would not hesitate to recommend the community.Becky Doyle RN, BSN

The Citadel is a first class retirement community by any standard. They have apartments for independent living or the option of assisted living for those that need a little more help. The facility is beautiful and maintained to spotless perfection. I have noticed a cheerful sense of community from both, the staff and the residents. I would not hesitate to place a family member at The Citadel.

My mother has lived at the Citadel now for almost 10 years. She is 94 now and absolutely thriving there. The general manager, office manager, activities director and the rest of the staff are the absolute best. She had some medical issues a few years ago and the doctor told her she probably couldnt go back to the Citadel. Well that was it for mom, she fought hard to get well so she could return to her home, friends and family at the Citadel. She didnt want to go anywhere else. We highly recommend this facility.

I been part of the Citadel Retirement Community for many years. The Community is centrally located in East Mesa and is warm, clean and welcoming, it displays the feeling of home. Whether visiting in the apartment or in the common areas those feelings of warmth and home are always present. The staff is more like extended family always offering support and available to help the residents maintain the feeling of home.

As the Move-In Coordinator for The Citadel I have the pleasure of assisting new residents with their transition to our community. As we all know any move can be somewhat trying both emotionally and physically. In all my years of employment, I have never worked in a more emotionally supportive atmosphere. Our staff together strives to create a warm and inviting environment to our residents. The happiness and well-being of our residents, is our first priority. Being part of the Citadel team is not only my career, but my pleasure, each and every day.
