Volunteer drivers can be scheduled to drive residents to medically related appointments (doctor/dental visits, therapy sessions, etc.) when they are unable to provide or procure such rides themselves.
We are limited by the number of your neighbors who are willing to assist, thus the service is not intended to cover repetitive, standing appointments of an ongoing nature. The service is free to PC residents.
We maintain a supply of canes, walkers, crutches, wheelchairs, knee scooters and ramps - available for loan to residents. In order to manage our inventory, your loan period will be established for up to 6 weeks. The load period can be extended subject to the availability of items.
Southwest Lending Closet in Avondale is available to provide other types of items or for longer loan periods.
The House, located at 15383 Cheery Lynn Rd. on the Eagle’s Nest side, is your in-person point of contact with Kare Bears.
Visit the House to arrange for the loan of medical equipment, return equipment, check our resource library; or for information about, or to arrange Kare Bears services.
A dedicated team of trained volunteers staff the House during business hours for contact in-person or by phone.
They handle your requests for transportation or for equipment loan, and answer questions about Kare Bears services and associated arrangements.
Our phone number (623-536-1200) will record your message if you call after-hours - for processing the next working day.
Kare Bears Presents programs are educational presentations offered most months on topics relevant to the well-being of PebbleCreek residents. Meetings are typically held on a Wednesday at 11:00 AM in the Eagle's Nest Ballroom.
Presenters are drawn from area medical and wellness professionals. Infrequently, there will be a brief “business meeting” for announcements, elections, etc. Events are free and light refreshments are provided by Kare Bears volunteers.

Our Dementia/Alzheimer's support group are gatherings of people who have a connection to Dementia,/Alzheimer's such as caregivers and family members. The group can provide a safe space for people to share their experiences, emotions, and practical advice. It can also help people feel less alone and improve their mental and emotional well-being.
We maintain a lending library of books, pamphlets and other materials in support of our medical/wellness focus. Visit the House to review or sign out items.

Kare Bears has purchased Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) units for the protection of residents and guests at PebbleCreek.The HOA has installed the units at appropriate sites throughout the community.
There are currently 19 locations (see the link below). We assist the HOA in assuring that the units are kept current; and we offer frequent training clinics on how to use the devices.
Our Annual Health Fair will be held in February 2025.
Typically over fifty medical/wellness providers attend to showcase their offerings for your investigation and review.
Robson Publishing utilizes Kare Bears volunteers to deliver the annual Source Book, and provides a stipend for the service.
