The caregivers at Avista Senior Living Albuquerque are the best. I trust them completely with my husband who has Primary Progressive Dementia. When he first went there, he was like a walking zombie. After just a couple months, he came back to life. They have so many activities for the residents to participate in everyday. When there is any concerns, like health, injuries or behavior issues, they let me know right away. The meals are prepared in a regular kitchen, not frozen, prepackaged or microwave ready. The staff takes the residents on various outings. Celebrate birthdays every month. My husband loves to be outdoors and they have a beautiful, safe and secure courtyard he gets to enjoy. The building is clean inside and out, no awful odors. Ron can be pretty stubborn at times, and Ray is able to keep him under control at those times and redirect his attention when needed. Watching the staff, caregivers interacting with the residents gives me confidence in knowing I made the best decision in choosing Avista for Ron's care.

Our family member spent the last eight months of his life at Avista, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. The staff was incredibly compassionate, attentive, and communicative about his needs. The doctors and nursing staff were responsive and truly cared for him as an individual, not just a patient. The facility itself is clean, bright, and welcoming, with plenty of windows, a beautiful garden, and a variety of activities to keep residents engaged. Most importantly, the level of care and compassion shown to both our loved one and our family was exceptional. Before Avista, he was at the Watermark, and that experience was terrible—don’t be fooled by the fancy appearance. Avista, on the other hand, is a genuinely caring place, especially for dementia patients. We are deeply grateful for everything they did for our family member, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality dementia care.

There are some staff that are very dedicated to what they do. They have taken very good care of my wife in the last year. Many work double shifts but always treat her with dignity, kindness and respect. I couldn't have found a better place for my wife.

Our father spent his last two and a half years at Avista, and we feel so lucky to have found that place for him. Two things about Avista stand out. The physical setting is dominated by large airy common areas where residents can find ample room to explore and socialize. The expansive outdoor courtyard was loved by our father and provided a great place for visits. Secondly, the staff at Avista were fantastic, energetic, loving, and respectful. Many of them became good friends for our father, who was happier at Avista than he had been at home. The front office was also very supportive and stepped up to solve many logistical challenges, making our lives much easier. Given the circumstances, we could not have asked for a better experience.
