Asbury Towers in Greencastle, Indiana offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can receive support that matches their health needs and cognitive status. The community is prepared to manage moderate dementia and related behaviors such as wandering in the morning or evening, attempted elopement, or being up all night. Clinical oversight covers wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes management whether residents use oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Younger adults who need support are also welcome, as the program can accommodate residents under 60.
Clinical services are reinforced by licensed nurses on duty around the clock, supported by an on-site RN/LPN team, awake night shift, and thorough staff background checks. Apartments feature pull-cords and PERS devices that alert staff, while secured and alarmed doors add an extra layer of safety. Residents have on-site access to podiatry, audiology, dental care, and a therapy room, and the community accepts individuals with psychiatric conditions. Care staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while mealtime help is available for those able to feed themselves. Transfers are handled using walkers, wheelchairs, standby assistance, or a one-person lift, depending on each resident’s mobility.
Housing options include suites with private bathrooms, some with kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate the space. Regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry are standard, though not every unit contains every feature, so it is important to confirm details during a tour. Independent Living residents receive weekly housekeeping and laundry plus medication-management monitoring to ensure health needs are tracked without sacrificing autonomy.
Meals are served restaurant-style with a set menu and an on-order option at each seating. Snacks are available all day, and residents may dine in their rooms or reserve the private dining room for family gatherings. The culinary team accommodates gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid diets. Independent Living residents can enroll in a monthly meal plan that offers flexibility while still providing balanced nutrition.
Amenities include resident parking, covered carports, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and outdoor smoking areas. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. A barber/beauty salon, exercise room, wellness center, library, and computer stations with internet access are on site, along with landscaped gardens and walking paths. Residents can attend on-site religious services, join special-interest clubs, or use the concierge for scheduling transportation to appointments and local outings.
