Review for The Ashton on the Plaza

My overall experience has been positive. I looked at several places before making this decision. There have been some leadership changes, which can cause disruptions, but the community itself is clean and appealing. The staff is easy to work with and responsive to concerns. The administrators, chef, and front desk staff have all been helpful. The activities director is a standout and brings a lot of energy to the community. The outings, special events, and activities are thoughtfully planned, and there is genuine c…

Review for The Ashton on the Plaza

From the moment we walked into the Ashton for a tour, we felt welcome. Staff was friendly and helpful. They also took the time to get to know my dad and talked with him about his likes, dislikes, needs and abilities. Shortly after he moved in, the chef sat down with him to talk about what he liked to eat. Rooms were spacious. And because it was a converted office building, its was unique with different sizes and configurations. Great location too. While my dad did not take part in the outings (just didn't have it …

Welcoming community

Overall experience has been great. For a situation that isn't easy, the staff at The Ashton has been wonderful. From figuring out the administrative and the logistics to all the staff members welcoming my dad and greeting him when they see him. He's not thrilled to be there (he really wanted to stay in his home) but he is settling in and the staff is a big part of that. Plus the food is outstanding. My dad is doing well because he is eating three great meals a day. Scott the activities director has so much planned …
