Testimonials

Personal and caring with each resident

When I first Placed My Mother in Memory care in a Large Community , there were no activities to speak of, until Kori arrived to manage the Memory Care unit. Daily She creatively engaged All residents in mental and physical activities to stimulate their brain and body. No babysitting in front of a TV all day She was Amazing ! Always enthusiastic, personal and caring with each resident. She was not only a resident’s advocate but an advocate for the family as well. I would want her caring for Me!

Extremely capable and passionate care team

Kori Zarinegar was in charge of the Memory Care unit where I got to know her. She was extremely capable at leading the care team in the Dementia unit. Kori has an outstanding personality and knows how to relate to the dementia residents. They all enjoyed her thoroughly. I was married to my wife for 64 years, 6 of them she had memory problems.
Kori certainly made a difference in my wife. She brought joy to her daily, she was creative and calm in her approach. No matter how difficult some days were, Kori assisted with compassion.

Sanctuary goes above and beyond to make the residents feel at home and part of a larger family.

For nearly 3 months my mother has been living at The Sanctuary. She’s receiving care specific to her needs from patient, kind staff who have taken the time to get to know her. Communication with director, Sam, has been excellent. He is readily available to help with accommodations of every kind, to make sure Mom’s transition is smooth. The facility is beautiful and clean with places to sit inside and outside, and there is usually a delicious home cooked meal being prepared in the kitchen. Staff invite and encourage residents to participate in the many activities they organize during the week. Sanctuary goes above and beyond to make the residents feel at home and part of a larger family.

The people inside and the care they give are what sets them apart.

Sam and his staff have been amazing to work with as we transitioned our father to Senior Sanctuary of Anthem. More important than being a beautiful place, the people inside and the care they give are what sets them apart.

Sam is by far one of the most diligent, thorough, knowledgeable and compassionate colleagues I have been fortunate enough to know.

Sam has truly been a joy to work with in serving our senior community.

Five stars all the way!

I personally witnessed Sam going the extra mile…

We are grateful for once again having the opportunity to work with Sam in adding both an Entry door and Courtyard gate to the Senior Sanctuary of Anthem. From the beginning, I personally witnessed Sam going the extra mile, such as chiseling down uneven concrete himself to 1/16” precision, just to make sure that accessibility to the home would be as smooth and convenient as possible for the residents. Adding the latest in locking mechanisms, it is obvious that security is also a priority. As a family business, we are all thankful to Sam for bringing us in to be part of this amazing project.

From our very first interaction it was clear that Sam sets the bar high.

We had the pleasure of assisting Sam with the landscape renovation at Senior Sanctuary of Anthem. From our very first interaction it was clear that Sam sets the bar high. Every detail and decision to be made was done with the residents best interest in mind. Safety and accessibility were of the highest priority. Sam spared no expense allowing us to creating a beautiful, serene setting. I was very impressed with the manner in which Sam interacted our crews. He knew each of them by name and always took time to acknowledge their skills.

It’s the peace of mind you’re looking for when it comes to the ones you love so dearly.

As we look back, we are not amazed at the continued love, dedication, and genuine care for others that this dear friend Sam still has.
Through a simple phone call we met him back in 2011 and were able to schedule a Show for him and his wonderful Residents. My husband & I have traveled the United States, Canada, etc. performing and it has been such a Blessing to be a part of the Anthem Senior Living. Sam strives to achieve nothing but the “best” for what we call his “Senior Saints” and we have come to know and love their Family members throughout the years. I also have had the privilege of being a part of the wonderful “Team” that Sam so very lovingly brings together to “care for & nurture” his precious Residents. I find great Joy in assisting them with their Activities weekly! The blessing is all mine. Please believe me when I say that once again Sam has provided a place where everyone is loved. You will be amazed at the Senior Sanctuary just as I was the first time I entered in the door. Take the time to visit and feel the love that resides within this beautiful Sanctuary. It’s the peace of mind you’re looking for when it comes to the ones you love so dearly. God will continue to bless Sam because he has always placed God & others before himself.

The love he pours into us allows us to reciprocate that love to our residents.

He is a Great human being that is passionate about seniors but committed to the team equally. He doesn’t ever call us employees rather refers to us as the most important part of Anthem Seniors. I have been a care taker for many years and have experienced and seen many things first hand. Nothing compares to the extent an owner goes not only providing amenities but including them at no additional cost like he does I have known Sam since 2012 and I’m going on 5 years working for his company and I’m not I planing to go anywhere! I purchased a home only 2 minutes away from work. That’s how much I love working for Sam. The love he pours into us allows us to reciprocate that love to our residents. The celebrations for residents with their special order dinners for their birthdays to the best Christmas parties you ever saw. We look forward to welcoming your loved ones and embracing them into our family!
