Asbury Gardens

They were so accommodating and so sweet to him. They bend over backwards to meet his needs. The Asbury Gardens is a great place. I am glad my father is comfortable and happy here.

My mother has lived at Asbury Gardens since 2010 and moved into their Memory Support unit in 2011. The care she receives is outstanding. The staff is respectful and sees to her needs. The daily activities scheduled are varied and I am so pleased she is participating and not sitting in her room. I also appreciate the family Support Group they have to help me understand dementia and how it affects my mom. I chose Asbury for location and it turned out to be so much more.

Their "memory care" unit is a bad joke. The do not "care" for the patients. They feed them & do their laundry twice a week. They are not Made to take showers/keep themselves clean or to participate in activities (IF you can find them). The staff is very friendly and also very inept. There is supposed to be an activity director but she either works only a few hours a day or does not exist. Patients are left alone to roam the halls talking to themselves or to sit alone in their room. There is Nothing going on after 5:30 pm. The staff will promise extra care on the 2nd floor but there is none. My friend was in Much better shape prior to entering this facility than after leaving and was taken to the Emergency Room several times due to poor hygiene, dehydration, depression & lack of physical activity. This is a DANGEROUS Facility for dementia patients

The fact that this is a medicaid accepted facility and the high level of care that is offered makes this an exceptional option. From the outside it may not look very appealing but the interior living space is very open and spacious. Since the short time my mother has been livinng @ Ashbury there have been many updates and improvements. The care provided has been great and staff has demonstrated a high attention to detail. We are still new to this transition but I am pleased so far at what I have seen from staff. It's very different from the other facilities that I toured and am very thankful Ashbury came to my attention

We are in the process of moving my Mom into the Memory care wing. We understand the renovations going on but we can see how great it will be when done. I could not be more excited about taking my Mon here. So far the staff have been amazing!!!! We really believe that Mom will do really well and we look forward to establishing a relationship with the residents and the staff. So far I have nothing but positives to say Asbury Gardens.

Property was not clean. There was an odor throughout the facility. The room also was not very desirable. Carpet was extremely dirty. Gross!

I only gave a 4 star on cleanliness only because we moved in our mom at a time where they were performing renovations so there were some areas that were not so pretty, but we anticipate a beautiful result. The staff has been very helpful and quick to respond to questions and provide guidance with paperwork in regards to getting in and how to have her evaluated and placed. They continue to keep us in the loop as far as her care and helping to get her acclimated to the new surroundings and activities. I feel she is safe and well cared for. It is a huge bonus that the residence get their own rooms. All the other homes we visited required she share a room. They are large and comfortable, their own kitchenette and private bath. Ours (mom's) even has a little patio overlooking the beautiful garden. There are multiple activities available every day, a little store with sundries and snacks in addition to the shopping field trips. The beauty school comes and offers services for free and on those weeks they do not come there is a beauty/barber shop on premises as well. The folks at Asbury have taken a huge worry from us, and made is so easy.

Our loved one has only been here a short time, but things seem to be going well! It is a nice looking, clean community, and all of the staff we have worked with have been very friendly and caring. They're a nice place, and definitely worth a look if you're looking into care for a loved one!

We've had a good experience with Asbury Gardens so far. The caregivers have all been very friendly and professional. They do what they say they're going to do and we haven't had any problems at all. They are also great about staying in touch with families, they always call and let me know any updates regarding my loved ones status. They are in the middle of some renovations, so things aren't as clean as they could be, but that will only be temporary.

Must be 65 to live here. Margie does not qualify. Plus much more than the $2300 quoted. Disappointing.

Everyone there is so helpful and friendly. My dad loves it in the memory care wing. They are taking good care of him. He loves his room. It's so big and has a beautiful view. It was a great transition for him to Asbury Gardens!

The cost is on the high end of assisted living centers we looked at. Cable TV and phone are additional charges. The is also a one large lump sum mandatory activities charge due on entry. Not a good thing if your loved one is not going to be using the activities. The nurses, activity planner, dining staff and staff in general are really great, which in the scheme of things, is most important. The manager, however, did not find it important to respond to 2 emails sent about concerns of the elevator in back shutting down w/ residents inside. For the cost, we feel it really should not be as run down in the public areas as it is. Furniture is torn, cushions worn, public area TVs, for the most part, go unused by the residents due to terrible picture quality. Upkeep on the exterior, including parking lot with potholes, and the grounds around the exterior of the building are not the best although when spring clean up was finally done, the landscapers hired did a great job. The courtyard is a nice area, although for some reason, we don't see it being used much by the residents. The residents can take part in a nice Asbury community garden. The apartments themselves are a good size and weekly cleaning crew friendly. Part of the reason we chose Asbury is because it also has a relatively new memory care wing and new nursing home wing. I imagine the assisted living area was put on hold to build those, however, it now definitely needs attention. When we toured, our focus was on the residents and staff caring for them and we overlooked the worn public areas. In a perfect world, it would be nice to have both, especially considering the cost to live there.

My mother was a resident at Asbury Gardens, and it is a treasure. It was originally a hotel, and it has a lovely courtyard, spacious lounge areas, an elegant dining room, large and comfortable rooms, and a dedicated and caring staff and administration. I was there often enough to observe every aspect of Mom's care, and I will be forever thankful that we were guided to Asbury Gardens, where Mom and all the residents were treated with dignity and kindness. If you are looking for assisted living, nursing care, or dementia care for a loved one, schedule a visit to Asbury Gardens before making a decision. I guarantee you will be impressed.

It was costly and demeaning. The place looked like it needed to be upgraded. It was delapidated, especially for that price.

They're real good. It's expensive but I don't have too much to compare it to. I like the activities. They have everything posted - they play card games, bingo, and memory games. They have exercise classes and they try to make it real fun. My brother is not able to join in so he watches. We're still hoping he will improve. I like a lot about Ashbury Gardens. I'm glad my brother is there. They're making sure he gets down to his meals and they're giving him his meds and making sure he takes a shower. They're watching over him real good. I'm really happy with the care. There are a couple of things that need fixing. His screen door and a piece of the cabinet are broken and we've asked them twice about that. They haven't gotten back to us yet but that's something minor.
