Asbury Village

My mother will be moving into Asbury Village. They took me to all the amenities that they have, the activities, and the dining room. I was also able to see a one-bedroom and a two-bedroom unit. They have game rooms where they do certain activities. The rooms were very nice. The staff was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. The rooms were slightly bigger and the pricing was cheaper than others.

I liked Asbury Village. It's nice, clean, convenient and the staff was nice. I just enjoyed it all. I have a little dog and they had an apartment that had a place outdoors where I could take my dog out. They have programs for the residents, a library, movie nights, a shuttle that takes them shopping or to medical appointments, and trips to other places. It's a very nice, well-rounded community. Somebody's there 24 hours a day and it's so secure. So, I liked that. I had friends there that I visited before and the food was very good.

My tour at Asbury Village was wonderful. Everything was beautiful. The people were very friendly. The rooms were very nice. The staff during the tour was very friendly and very informative. They were great. They had a TV room, a chapel, and everything like the other ones have.

I'll be moving into Asbury Village. I will have a big living room, a bedroom, and a full kitchen. I will have a dishwasher, a full stove, and a refrigerator. There is a washer and dryer there where I did not have to go down the hall to use the washing machine. My apartment will be such that I will do my own cooking. I lived in a villa there. They have villas there as well as apartments. One big apartment is for independent living, and then at the other end of property is like for people with dementia. I made friends the first time I lived there, and they're still there. They all knew me since I walked in. They have their own chapel there, they have their activities going there, and they have a beauty shop there. They have a van that will take you to the doctors, to the grocery store, or wherever you need to go if you don't have a car or a vehicle. So it is everything that I need. They have bingo and exercises. Sometime this week, the staff told me that they were having the youngsters come in and put on a show for them. You can go to like crafts, and there's the library if you want to go to the library, and then they have like card games if you want to get involved in that. I have my own balcony where I can sit outside. The building is very well, such that if I wanted to go someplace, I can step out into the hall and there are signs telling you where everything is at. First, they give you a map to show you where everything is at. It's very nice. Each and every resident has their own door decorated up. It's beautiful. It's just beautiful. The staff has been very friendly and always helpful. They have a cleaning lady come in and clean for you. They're excellent. I get to meet anybody up there that has been a negative attitude. I have yet to meet that, and I have lived there before.

My mother has moved into Asbury Village. It is located near where I am. Having her near me was the key factor, and the reputation was very good. It received very high marks in the independent surveys, and it was affordable. It has everything except out-and-out nursing home care for those that are totally incapacitated. My mother is in the assisted living. There are also apartments and separate living accommodations for those who wish to use that, meals, and recreation. No resident and no staff member at this location came down with Covid. She's only been in there for a month and a half, but it's been very positive.

RUN AWAY QUICKLY

Avoid at all costs. My parent's sold their lifelong home and moved into the independent living villas. They thought this was their final home. The village made big promises before we moved them there and lied about many things! We were told the "rent" $2900/month wouldn't raise for a couple years. It raise 3 times in 2.5 years. We were told any assistance my parents needed they would help, just call. The transportation that was promised to dr appts and stores was limited to 2 days a week in a couple hour block, for the entire place and we all know dr. offices are available when you tell them to be. We couldn't even get a ceiling fan that had an electrical issue replaced. We had to purchase our own because they said we owned it. - Yes in a villa they rented. When my dad fell, my mom called them for help and she was told they couldn't help for her to call fire dept or ambulance for assistance. My dad was in a nursing home for rehab, the village decided that my mother could no longer care for him by herself. (Even though we had aides to come in and help and my mother was certified by the state as a caregiverand had been doing so for many years) so they informed us that my father was not allowed to return to the villa. They told us this on a Friday and he was being released the following week. The stress on my mother was horrible!!! She had to make decisions fast and without my dad ever seeing the place we ended up moving them to, which made her feel horrible. We had less than a week to find a new place to live and move all their items. We found out they were doing this to 2 other residence at the same time. First of all they had my mom so scared that they were going to kick her out and she thought they could refuse to let my dad come back there. They also broke HIPPA by contacting the nursing home and asking about his health since we did not sign any forms giving them permission. Honestly I am so glad they are out of that place but wish it had happened a different way. They literally did nothing but rent my parents a very expensive villa and mow the grass. They did nothing else. I feel sorry for elderly people who may not have family involved, this was a horrible 2.5 years that I don't wish on anyone but at least we were all there to help them get through it. Please do not put your family members through this place!

These people are the most wonderful folk. They helped my family when we were in a very desparate situation and worked with the hospital to help my mom's transition from independent to community living go smoothly. I cannot say enough good things about them and consider them livesavers. The facility is equally wonderful - really giving its residence everything they need and beyond. My mom raves about the food as well. We are so glad we picked UMV and encourage others to do so!

I was very impressed. The dining area was OK, and it’s very clean.

I chose it for my dad because it is very nice. The staff working there is very good. They also have a wide variety of social activities. They have outings, exercise, and book groups. I could say that the food is adequate. They don't have a dining room though. They have individual dining areas for the small groups. The security of the community is very good.

I was looking for a place for my mother and I happened to visit this one. Just basing on my visit there, it appeared to be very well run. I like their director there. She was very warm and very friendly. The people there were just willing to meet your needs. It was a very nice place but it just happened to be a little bit larger and I like for my mom to stay in a smaller home atmosphere. Their accommodations were pretty much the same as other facilities. They also have studios, one-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom apartments. They were a little bit more expensive though.
