Nervous you won’t make friends? Unlikely! Afraid you’ll have to give up your hobbies? Not a chance. Get a glimpse into our community programming and what life is like living here by checking out our Facebook page. We frequently share what residents have been doing to stay active, involved, and living life to the fullest.

The Southview #MemoryCare residents have started a Drum Circle! The residents had a blast at their first practice and couldn’t help singing along to the beat! Did you know that sensory stimulation like music helps individuals recall memories & bring back those happy moments?!

Wednesdays are #FreeSeniorDays on the New Mexico Rail Runner ✨ A group of seniors decided to hop aboard and ride the rails to meet up with their sister community, Palmilla Senior Living, in Albuquerque.

Hazah! Our very own Enclave Renaissance Family Night! After learning how to make Mead and visiting the AZ Renaissance Festival. Our residents were ready to show off their Medieval skills. Sir Matt and Lady Carol went head-to-head, showing their lance skills in a joust, riding upon their trusty ...steeds. Sir Bill and Lady Marie competed in throwing the hobbles on the ladder. Lady Phillis set the mood with her flute, and we learned Medieval phrases and their meanings. We enjoy building our relationships through friendly competitions, entertainment, and lots of laughter.

In preparation for our upcoming Renaissance Family Night, we took some residents to the Arizona Renaissance Festival to discover what ideas we could bring back to the Enclave for all to enjoy. Ray said he hadn't been to the festival in over 20 years. He was happy to see how it had grown and ...wanted to see the whole thing. Their favorite shows were the Birds of Prey and the Bagpipers. Yes, we even ate the turkey legs!! Now, we are ready for our show.

Watching our girls at Arcadia Senior Living Bowling Green getting the recognition they deserve ✨ #seniorssupportingseniors

There is always something unique and new to learn. Did you know that Mead (honey wine) is the oldest recorded alcohol in the world? Our residents had a day of learning about the origins of this fermented drink, the first of which was discovered in Northern China dating back to 6500 BC. Presented by... our own DEP Steph, a home brewer. Janet, a resident, said, "I didn't even know I could learn something so interesting."

Matt shook the carboy to blend the water, honey, and yeast. The hardest part is waiting for the Mead to ferment so they can drink it.

Hear From Residents and Family of The Enclave at Gilbert Senior Living!

I love living at The Enclave at Gilbert! I enjoy using the heated pool in the winter, it's great for exercise class. There are so many good food options in the dining room, I can't ever decide what to chose because it's all sooo good! I have met some really great friends while living here at the Enclave.

Words can't describe how appreciative I am for the excellent care my grandmother received while residing in assisted living at The Enclave. When we first brought her to The Enclave, she was on hospice care, so we knew we didn't have too much time left with her. While my grandmother was only able to spend a couple of months at The Enclave before she peacefully passed, I am absolutely certain that she would have loved to have lived here on a permanent basis for years to come. The caregivers, dining staff, and administrative staff were all absolutely phenomenal and truly treated her like their family. It was such a heartwarming thing to have seen and helped us feel reassured that she was in excellent hands for those parts of the day when we weren't with her. I absolutely recommend this senior living facility.

We toured a few different assisted living facilities, and this was our favorite. Beautiful facility, and everyone was kind and friendly.

I know I'm only one person, but it has been my experience that if your loved one is reluctant about "a senior living community", The Enclave At Gilbert is a remarkable option. My mother came here under "needed circumstances", but really wanted to live with us. This was not possible (for a variety of reasons).We turned to The Enclave, looking first at "Independent Living" (IL). Although The Enclave has a thriving IL community, my Mom's needs were best suited to Assisted Living.From our initial tour, through intake, through setting up my Mom's beautiful apartment, we've been supported by The Enclave's amazing staff. The staff is truly the "kingpin" of The Enclave!My Mom has privacy when she wants it, an exhaustive list of FUN activities (on and off site), tremendous medical care (which comes to her door), loads of friends, security and happiness!IT TAKES TIME. Any one undergoing such a life change takes time to adjust. But my Mom has been living at The Enclave for about 5 months and she now thinks of it as home. We, her family, have felt supported and listened to. We all feel cared for. The folks at The Enclave show us all that every day.

The experience of having a loved one take residence at The Enclave at Gilbert has been a fantastic one! The staff truly care about your loved ones and go the extra mile for them whenever possible. The Enclave at Gilbert has great facilities and kitchen and I cannot recommend them enough.

I own a local moving company and we frequently go to this facility multiple times a month to move people in and out. So, we work with the staff and are in and out of the rooms moving people in or out. Their staff is very inviting and very friendly. They go above and beyond for their customers and the facility is always very clean and we enjoy going there because of how great the facility is. The customers that we move in and out say nothing but positive things about the facility and how helpful the staff is.

When COVID is under control, being able to ride the bus to Walmart. Get back to the horse racing and Bingo activity, Be able to have themed dinners again with entertainment. Would like to see more opportunities to use equipment in the Wellness Center.

I spent the last week at The Enclave at Gilbert, and this is a beautiful community! The residents here are engaged, vibrant, and excited about what the community has to offer. The Executive Director, Mindy, as well as their Director of Nursing, Vanessa, were so welcoming. It is a pleasure to be in this community. I highly recommend the services that are offered at the Enclave.

My wife Mary-Lou and I have lived at the Enclave for a year and have seen great improvement in the food area, especially the last 2 months. The attitude of the kitchen staff must be credited for this. Actually the attitude of the staff in all areas of the community should be commended and is a direct reflection of our Directress Diana. The number of activities and quality of activities is almost overwhelming at times. You will never say, "there is nothing to do". After reviewing all the other similar communities in the area I can honestly say the Enclave offers the most amenities and truly feels like home.
