Frequently Asked Questions

Fellowship Square Phoenix is part of Christian Care Companies. 

Christian Care was founded in 1979, by a group of devoted Christians who recognized an opportunity to minister to Arizona seniors by offering affordable nursing care. Realizing this need, they formed a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization and named it Christian Care.

Christian Care Health Center was the first to open its doors in 1980. The Phoenix campus continued to grow, ultimately providing a full continuum of senior living options: independent living, assisted living, subsidized senior housing, skilled nursing, memory care and healthcare services.

Today, Christian Care operates six retirement communities across the state of Arizona: Cottonwood, Historic Mesa, Phoenix, Mesa, Surprise and Tucson.  

Assisted Living is ideal for those who need more support in their day-to-day lives, but who do not require the 24-hour skilled nursing care found in nursing centers. Residents receive increased assistance with their activities of daily living and a higher level of care than what is available in Independent Living.

In both The Oasis Assisted Living & Christian Care Manor II, we provide three different levels of Assisted Living services: Supervisory, Personal and Direct Care. In Christian Care Manor II, we accept ALTCS benefits as well as private pay.

This is a concern for many seniors when considering a move to a retirement community. They worry that they will be giving up their freedom - and they will be limited by rules and restrictions, or they will be required to participate in activities.  In fact, the opposite is true.

Our residents find the convenience and support of available services allows them to enjoy greater independence and freedom. Services such as housekeeping, transportation and maintenance relieves them of a 'to-do' list, so they have more time to enjoy the things they want to do.  Fellowship Square's Activities Team is truly dedicated to keeping our activities calendar fresh and inspiring.

Our residents feel encouraged to be themselves and enjoy each day as they choose. Whether they decide to spend the day at home reading a good book or fill their day with planned activities, it's their call.

Our Board of Directors take many factors into account when making this decision, including overhead expenses, capital expenditures, government mandates, market conditions and affordability. They are fully committed to our organization's Mission, Vision and Values – and include all three in the framework of their analysis.

When seniors begin thinking about making a move into senior living, the cost is undoubtedly one of the first questions that come to mind.
When comparing the monthly rent in a retirement community to the cost of your current living situation, it’s essential to consider the added value of all the services and amenities included. At most senior living communities, monthly rent covers services such as maintenance, landscaping, and housekeeping*.
