What this means for your family

This facility is an excellent choice for families seeking specialized, dignified memory care with a highly trained staff. While the care and cleanliness are exceptional, you should specifically ask how they manage bathroom access for residents who struggle with keys and how strictly they can adhere to specific dietary restrictions.

Key Review Excerpts

The executive director Mr. Tony Pennachio met me and my family in the beginning and graciously toured us around the beautiful and super clean facility. His leadership was obvious in the quality of his friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★★

The building layout is fantastic for residents who wander. The halls have books, radios, displays and paintings to see. The staff treats everyone with compassion and organizes fun activities to get though the day.

Spouse of resident · 2025★★★★★

My mom lived at Copper Canyon for 2.5 years and I was extremely impressed with the facility and the team of employees.. because of the care team they never let her feel like she was losing her dignity and that is so important with a memory disability.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★
