About East Valley Senior Living
We are an independent, deeply local resource dedicated to helping families navigate the stressful search for senior care.
Our Mission
Finding the right care for an aging parent or loved one is one of the most stressful experiences a family can go through. The options are overwhelming, the costs are confusing, and the stakes are incredibly high.
East Valley Senior Living was created to provide a calm, trustworthy, and knowledgeable guide through this process for families in Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, and the surrounding areas. We aren't a national lead-generation mill—we are local experts who know these communities inside and out.
How We Work
East Valley Senior Living is a service of CarePatrol Chandler/Gilbert. Our services are 100% free for families.
- We Listen: We start by understanding your loved one's care needs, budget, preferred location, and personal preferences.
- We Match: Using our deep knowledge of the East Valley market, we identify the 3-4 communities that best fit those specific needs.
- We Guide: We tour the communities with you, ask the tough questions, and help you make an informed decision.
Meet Your Advisors

Lee Thompson
Owner & Senior Advisor
"Families know they can trust me because I am empathetic, considerate, and have their best at heart."
Lee owns and leads a local senior placement service serving the East Valley of Phoenix — Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, and the East Valley side of Phoenix. He listens carefully to each family's needs, concerns, and preferences before recommending appropriate levels of care such as Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, or In-Home Care, and he tours East Valley communities in person with the families he serves. Lee went through the same daunting experience himself when he helped find care for a family member in Mt. Vernon, IL — an experience that gave him the passion he has today for helping families.

Ashley Cady
Advisor
"I find immense joy in bringing peace to turmoil and walking alongside families in their time of need."
An East Valley resident for more than 35 years, Ashley grew up in and around the world of caring for people. She has a heart for seniors and for families suddenly thrust into a new world of medical care and end-of-life planning, and she brings firsthand experience caring for loved ones in medically fragile situations — walking through a cancer diagnosis with her mother, caring for her grandmother as she transitioned into long-term care, and supporting her daughter, who has daily medical needs. She loves her community and knows the East Valley like the back of her hand.
Our Privacy Promise
When you request help from us, your information is never sold and never sent to a marketing list. One local advisor follows up, and your details are shared only with the specific communities you choose to consider. That's a deliberate difference from national referral sites, where a single form submission typically sends your phone number to multiple communities at once.
Why We're Free
Our placement services are completely free to families because we are compensated by our partner communities when a family chooses to move in. However, our loyalty is always to the family. We show you all appropriate options, regardless of our partnership status, because our reputation is built on making the right match.
Let us help you find peace of mind.
