5 out of 5 stars
I cannot recommend Gabby and her team highly enough. They became a vital part of my dad's care team and an important advocate for him and extension of our family in the last several years of his life. From home health care to accompanying us to doctors appointments to keeping me company in the ER during several hospitalizations to private care in an assisted living home, Gabby's team was caring, thoughtful and proactive during some very challenging circumstances and also provided essential companionship as well. Call Gabby and her team! You and your loved one will be so grateful to have them in your life, as Dad and I did. Thank you Gabby, I never could have cared for dad alone.

FAQ

Questions About Care in CantaMia

Common questions from families looking for in-home senior care in CantaMia, Arizona.

Reviewed by Gabriela Ordonez, Director, Ativo Home Care

How much does home care cost at CantaMia in Goodyear, AZ?

In-home care at CantaMia in Goodyear averages about $38 per hour, or roughly $3,300 per month for 20 hours of care per week, according to the 2025 CareScout Cost of Care Survey for Arizona. Ativo Home Care is private pay, with no insurance paperwork, no long-term contracts, and pricing based on the hours you use.

Is in-home care cheaper than assisted living in Arizona?

Yes. In-home care in Arizona runs about $3,300 per month for 20 hours a week, which is less than half the state's $6,185 monthly median for assisted living and well below the $8,365 for a semi-private nursing home room, according to the 2025 CareScout Cost of Care Survey. For families needing fewer than about 30 hours of care a week, staying home is usually the more affordable option.

Does Medicare or insurance pay for home care in Arizona?

Medicare generally pays $0 toward non-medical home care such as companion or personal care, because it only covers short-term skilled home health that a physician orders for a homebound patient. Long-term care insurance and VA Aid and Attendance benefits can offset the cost, and Ativo Home Care is private pay. We help families with long-term care insurance file their claims so they can use those benefits.

What is the difference between home care and home health care?

Home care is non-medical support with daily living, including companionship, bathing, dressing, meals, and errands, and is paid privately. Home health care is clinical care such as skilled nursing or physical therapy, ordered by a physician and certified by Medicare in 60-day periods. Ativo provides non-medical home care for families who want help staying safe and independent at home.

How do I know when my parent needs in-home care?

Common signs a parent needs in-home care include missed medications, unpaid bills or unopened mail, weight loss or little food in the home, declining hygiene, new bruises or a recent fall, and growing isolation. Noticing three or more of these patterns often means it is time to bring in support. Ativo offers a free consultation to help families decide what level of care fits.

How quickly can Ativo start care at CantaMia?

Ativo can typically begin care at CantaMia within 24 to 48 hours of your first consultation. Because care is private pay, there are no insurance authorizations to wait on. For discharges from Abrazo West Campus in Goodyear, our local team can have support in place when a loved one comes home.

How are Ativo's caregivers screened and trained?

Every Ativo caregiver completes three checks before placement: a national background check, reference verification, and a skills assessment, and all caregivers are bonded and insured. Because Arizona does not license non-medical home care agencies, a provider’s screening standards are a family’s main safeguard. Ativo holds caregivers to the same standards as the teams inside Ativo Senior Living communities, a bar our director, Gabriela Ordonez, describes as character over skill, and families meet their caregiver before care begins.

Is Ativo Home Care licensed in Arizona?

Arizona does not require a state license for non-medical home care agencies that provide companion and personal care, so no state license applies to these services. Ativo Home Care operates in full compliance with applicable Arizona regulations, and because the category is unlicensed, Ativo applies the same vetting and training standards used across its senior living communities. Every caregiver is background-checked, bonded, and insured.

Does Ativo serve CantaMia at Estrella?

Yes. Ativo Home Care serves CantaMia, the Del Webb active adult community within the Estrella master plan at the base of the Sierra Estrella Mountains in Goodyear. Our caregivers know the resort-style recreation center, with its indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, and tennis and pickleball courts, and support residents in their own homes there.

Can I change or cancel my care schedule without a penalty?

Yes. Ativo Home Care operates with no long-term contracts and no cancellation fees, so families can increase, reduce, or pause their care schedule at any time with a phone call. There are no minimum commitments, and you pay only for the hours you use.
