Thanks for the comments and suggestio!s. It's good to know there are various shuttles. Kaiser Health Plan covers lodging and wants patient to stay at The Village patient housing, which I prefer anyway.
BUT THE VILLAGE WEBSITE SEEMS TO BE SAYING PATIENTS ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A CAR. IS THIS TRUE? I'm concerned about this because my choice would be a very long drive from home to bring our car OR renting a car. That would be very expensive for a several weeks stay in Phoenix.

When I checked out the Village which is past building 3 (radiation oncology bldg) and about a quarter mile down a side road. It is very affordable which is why insurance favors it but required a caregiver to live with me as a roommate which wasn't an option for me. My caregivers needed their own room and a less communal living situation. There is a waiting list so check the availability ASAP if you are interested. Barbara
