The AHCA Story

Organized in 1953, the Arizona Health Care Association has grown into a strong and viable group of long-term care providers dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for Arizona’s elderly and disabled in residential settings. Today, membership encompasses the majority of licensed, operating nursing care facilities in the state, who together provide continuous nursing care and assisted living services to over 15,000 residents.

AHCA was founded to promote standards and ethics in the profession of long term health care, and to ensure quality care for nursing facility and assisted living residents. AHCA is a non-profit organization supported by membership dues, educational program fees, and other services.
