The Las Cruces area Agency on Aging and Long Term Services Ombusdman Division has exceptional volunteers who visit homes to be available to elders, their families, and yes even staff.  The Arbors has been assigned Mr. William “Bill” Patterson.  The State Ombudsman Program is a Resident’s Right’s advocacy agency.  We have welcomed  Bill to our home for more than 5 years. We are so thankful for the time he spends with us!

The Arbors hosted our families for a question and answer seminar with RX Innovations Pharmacist Kevin Collier. Kevin was available to discuss several topics regarding elders medication. Co-pays, refunds, elder's right to choose their pharmacy, and State Mandated quarterly consulting to name a few.  We are pleased to Welcome RX Innovations and their services to our lovely home!

At our three homes we love to get everyone involved when preparing meals. Our Elders enjoy having responsibility and being part of the process of planning and prepping our home cooked meals. Our Elders, caregivers, and even our Executive Directors get involved in putting love and care into the food that they serve. The open feel of the kitchen is welcoming and inviting, and gives everyone a sense of being at home in their own kitchen. The delicious smells of food fill the air each day and it truly feels like a loving home.
