Two decades ago, Patricia Will and her family searched for the best memory care
community for her mother-in-law. During that search, she discovered a passion for
assisted living and Alzheimer�s care. That discovery led to the founding of the first
Belmont Village and its dementia-specific programs, with the goal of reaching the
highest standards in senior care. Today, the level of assisted living and Alzheimer�s
care provided at Belmont Village Scottsdale exemplifies that mission.
Belmont Village Scottsdale is a 138-unit assisted living community that includes a
secured Alzheimer�s wing with 25 private apartments. Each wing of the three-story
building is decorated with one of four themes: Western, Elephant, Beach or Arizona.
All assisted living units include a private bathroom with shower, closet and storage
space, basic cable TV and a small kitchen with a full-size refrigerator and
microwave.
