Asher Point Independent Living of Montgomery

It was one of the lowest priced locations but it was old and needed repairs and additional security measures. They provide transportation to doctors appointments when needed. They also have shopping days and other off premises activities. However, when I was there...their food was often very bad. Fish and chips on the menu and what was served was a few fried shrimp and potato chips. Their cook claimed to be a chef. It's obvious he was not. This was an acceptable location because I spent the time working with management to improve on my wife's experience. The maid service was crap to put it bluntly. I had to hire additional help to ensure the apartment was kept clean. It seems it has changed hands now though. So I have no idea what the management is like.

So far, we have had a great experience. 5 for all. No complaints and we would recommend Asher Point Independent Living to other families who may need a place for their loved ones.

Overall this transition has gone very well! There is always room for improvement, nothing is perfect. My mom sometimes complains about redundancy with food options and there is only one maintenance person but he is great! Just a little too busy. However, the small team makes a lot happen. My mom is doing amazing better than I've seen her in years. And the staff knows her and obviously cares about here, which is comforting.

They seem to have a problem with violent crime in the area which makes residents feel unsafe. Also there are many people in the community that need more intensive care than is appropriate for an independent living facility. Finally, the food is good but they are often short-staffed, which leads to long wait times at meals .

We have not had good experiences with the cleaning staff that is supposed to clean the personal room. They recently made some changes in the food department, so will wait to comment there. As far as value for the money, just a short while back, they put a note on the door for all the residents without any discussion that the monthly rate would be increased by $[removed]/month. This is an absurd amount to increase all at once, in my opinion.

I would recommend to others.

The staff was very nice and we felt like it offered what we were seeking.I would highly recommend the community, the dining staff and the activity director have been great.

The staff are very caring and very good about checking on the residents if they don't see them at mealtime, etc. They would also call me if they were concerned about my husband (who was also a resident here). My husband loved the meals and still talks about the good food that they prepared. The housekeeping was good, although they did miss a time or 2 due to the housekeeper quitting suddenly. My husband and I both would recommend this facility and will definitely come back if we need to.

We are really pleased with our accomodations and the staff is great. I would absolutely recommend to others. They offer games, speakers, shopping trips, and church services, and etc..

Good place for independent Living! Especially when the individual can drive. I am glad that it works for us. We feel blessed to have our loved one there.

They are currently short-staffed but appear to be working to resolve that issue. The menu is limited, and the evening meal is a disappointment. But the staff that are there are extremely welcoming. And the apartment is adequate to meet my loved one's needs.

I have been here for a rewarding 5 months. I have met some of the most loving people. I felt right at home from day one. We laugh together and share stories together. We enjoy eating together. We all do activities together. I am so glad I picked Eastdall Estates as my new home.

The manager is fantastic and will listen to the family if there are issues that arise. You most likely will have issues that arises and the manager will try to find a solution quickly. There have been sandwiches served for dinner and a bigger meal at lunch. This is an older building; however, if you compare the value for the area the value is actually good here. I would recommend you take a tour to see if this is a good place for your loved one. There is a physical therapy office in the complex if your loved one would need it. You are able to utilize an independent contractor to assist with medication management.

I am a new resident and would like to say that from first arriving to settling in it has been a praise worthy experience. It is an exceptionally, well run facility with the care, comfort and happiness of the residents being top priority. There exist a loving, caring atmosphere 1 is promoted by personnel and carried out by all employees. It is a place I can truly caooll "home".

Ive lived here at Eastdale Estates for about 2 years now. Its cozy here, the residents are so friendly and warm and so is the staff. If you get a little lonely in your room just take a walk down the hallway and visit a friend or go to an activity and play a game or have a snack!. Enjoy your time.

Wonderful staff, and so much to do. They have a large activity room that seems to have something going on all the time. They have something for everybody there, whether it is reading, games, music, even billiards. Definitely a a hidden gem in a peaceful location.

We chose Eastdale Estates because there are 4 different levels of senior health care and this was more of a retirement community versus a nursing home or place where people need more help. I wanted her to be able to keep her independence but if she falls someone can be there to assist her. The apartment sizes are more than adequate for what she needs. The activities provided are outstanding. The environment overall is very safe and is close to a medical facility. I would recommend them to others looking.
