Sandy, Utah

Care for someone you love, close to home

Sandy stretches from the TRAX line up toward the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon, and the east side of the city is steep enough that snowy driveways become a genuine safety issue for an older parent living alone. Many Sandy families start looking at care after a fall shoveling or a scare on an icy hill.

Alta View Hospital is the neighborhood hospital, and Intermountain Medical Center in Murray is close for bigger needs. Sandy has a mix of established homes from the 1970s and 80s and newer developments, and it is common for a parent to want to stay within a few miles of the ward or neighborhood they have known for decades.
