Prema at Ashton Hills provides two levels of residential care: Assisted Living for residents who need help with daily tasks but value independence, and Memory Care for those living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Both programs operate within a secured community, with controlled access designed to reduce wandering risks and promote safety. Residents benefit from routine visits by on-site and consulting physicians, as well as diabetes monitoring and management. Short-term respite stays are available for individuals recovering from illness or giving family caregivers a break, and speech therapy services are in place for residents who need communication or swallowing support.
The community maintains a clinical focus through a wide range of on-site medical services. Nurses oversee medication management, incontinence care, and general health monitoring. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists support rehabilitation and mobility goals, while an optometrist, dentist, and podiatrist visit regularly for preventive and follow-up care. Ambulatory support helps residents who require assistance moving around safely, and hospice care is offered when needed, allowing residents to remain on campus through the end of life. All Memory Care programming, common areas, and staff training are designed specifically to accommodate memory loss, creating a consistent environment for cognitive support.
Accommodations include private or companion suites that may feature kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, individual climate control, and Wi-Fi. Select apartments open to a balcony, terrace, patio, or deck, and some overlook landscaped outdoor areas with raised garden beds. The building offers central air conditioning, handicap-accessible layouts, and parking for residents who still drive. A central fireplace and community piano provide gathering spots, and the campus is pet friendly, though individual apartments vary, so not every unit includes every listed feature.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals plus all-day dining options. Menus accommodate vegetarian, vegan, kosher, gluten-free, low-sodium, and no-sugar preferences, and guest meals can be arranged. Restaurant-style service is standard, with international dishes appearing alongside familiar favorites to support varied tastes. Nutritional guidelines are available for residents managing diabetes or other health conditions.
Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, fitness programs, indoor and outdoor walking paths, and raised garden beds. Organized social outings, clubs, and community groups meet regularly, while on-site events include happy hours, karaoke, live music, dances, and birthday celebrations. Structured programming such as yoga or chair yoga, reminiscence sessions, sensory-based activities, and intergenerational projects round out the calendar, giving residents multiple ways to stay mentally, socially, and physically engaged.
