CAREFREE – As 2024 draws to a close, the founders of the family-owned Heritage at Carefree, Donna and Marin Holbura, extend their gratitude to the community that has welcomed them and the seniors who call Heritage home. Since 1988, the goal has consistently been to offer a compassionate, friendly, wholistic and luxurious environment. And it shows through the plethora of reviews: “This is a lovely place; the staff is so helpful.” And, “Heritage has lots of activities, shopping, trips to Sedona, Flagstaff, Glendale and other local destinations. The place is immaculate and I have made lots of friends.” As well, “The food is very good and they accommodate your diet. The staff is wonderful and is available 24/7.”
The Heritage strives to meet the needs of all of its neighbors as they age. Still thriving? Independent care is your best option. “It allows residents to maximize personal freedom while residing in an apartment of their choosing.” Need a bit of help in your day-to-day life? “Assisted living provides a team of certified caregivers, medical/nursing professionals, dietary/social coordinators who work with residents and family members in designing an individualized and holistic wellness plan for those requiring minimal to hands-on care.”
Memory care is designed for those requiring loving and compassionate care as a result of a dementia or Alzheimer’s diagnosis. It’s secure, safe and embraced by residents’ family members. For folks needing an advanced level of care as a result of a physical or mental disability, such as individuals using walkers, wheelchairs or are bed bound, Heritage has skilled nursing and hospice care. Again, care is stellar, shoulders are lightened and hearts are relieved.
Not only are there care levels but residents have the choice of a studio or one of many suites up to 1100 square feet! Interested? Marketing director and youngest daughter of Donna and Marin, Ellysse Opris, said, “We are available for tours daily! Come see us for yourself or your loved ones.”
