Ashwood Place

We chose Ashwood Place because of the close proximity to me, their physicians, hospital, and costs. Facility and staff are great! Food services are inconsistent. A big portion of what we pay is for the food service and feel it should improve--a lot. Seniors obviously need good nutrition.

Food is mediocre. No nutritional value at all. High on carbs and sugars. Low on taste. Transportation is limited to 3 days per week (M-W-F) with limited hours 9am-11am. Good luck getting a hair appointment within those hours. There is a on-site salon but it’s only open a couple days each week. Management more concerned about marketing events than making activities available for residents. There is an undisclosed annual increase to rent, 2024 being 11 percent and expect even higher for 2025. Recommend to use the money you’d spend here on in-home care for your loved one. Light housekeeping.

Do I call 911? Or not.

All of the staff are friendly. One of the waist staff goes out of the way to help people, just today a person noticed that I acted like I was having trouble breathing and came over and asked if I was ok. Has helped me before.

My dog, Misty, came too. We walk twice a day for exercise.

The majority of people who stay here are lovely. If you have ever eaten with 3 people at a table when one new person asks, they are always welcome!! We play bingo on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday which is fun, for one hour and small, useful prizes.

Review for Ashwood Place Senior Living

I would recommend it to other people looking for a place. I think it's the right size, not too big not too small. The staff are very nice and friendly. Other residents are very nice and friendly. They have consistent activities That she enjoys. They do a nice job. The food was a little rough when they lost the cook, but that is improving and that really can't be helped it happens.

I am here temporary, I find the place very suitable for me, except the food which needs some improvement. Meals are too close together. I would recommend overall suitable.

our families experience

We gave the value for cost 4 stars because it is very pricey. That she is provided meals. Staff is VERY willing to help in any way they can. Especially [name removed] and [name removed] , but all have been very polite. From maintenance to kitchen staff. Grounds are very nice, and my Mom can plant her flowers to enjoy while she sits on her patio.

A great place for mom

Ashwood Place has been such a blessing to our family. Everyone working there goes above and beyond to make everyday special for the residents. We are especially thankful to know that mom is eating well, resting well and is in a safe environment.

Good transition

My mother seems to be adjusting well and likes it very much here. They seem to be doing everything they are supposed to. We chose Ashwood Place because it is close to my office and our family which makes it easy to visit.

Ashwood Rocks!

My Mother-in-Law lived happily at Ashwood for 5years before she died at age 90. At almost 93, my Mother was ready to consider an alternative to living alone in her home. She wasn't totally sold on moving, but decided to give it a try. The deciding factor was being able to bring her dog and cat. She's been at Ashwood only a month and we've seen a remarkable change in her. She still has her walker and cane, but rarely uses them. She's motivated to walk, participate and live again. The staff is friendly, professional, responsible and caring. The activities are engaging and she loves the food. She's always taken great pride in her home and has been able to decorate her apartment just as she wanted it. She just called me to tell me there was a called meeting in the dining room this afternoon and she wondered what was going on. It was a surprise party the day before Thanksgiving, complete with finger foods, music and dancing.

Happy Residents!!

During my tour at of the Ashwood, I noticed all of the residents were very happy and in a room playing board games. The staff was all very friendly and informative. The only problem I noticed with this place was when we walked into the dining room the floors were sticky. It could have just been that day, though.
