Ashbury Heights of Laurie delivers assisted-living care for older adults who want regular support without giving up their independence. Daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and mobility assistance are handled by trained staff who remain available around the clock. Residents can add or reduce the level of help they receive as needs change, and the community’s care plan reviews are designed to keep services aligned with each person’s current abilities and preferences.
Additional clinical resources are integrated into the program. A physician visits the community for routine oversight and can coordinate with outside specialists when necessary. Respite and short-term stay arrangements give family caregivers a break or allow a recovering senior to bridge the gap between hospital and home. Diabetes management includes glucose monitoring, diet guidance, and insulin administration as ordered. A licensed speech therapist is on call to address communication or swallowing issues, helping residents maintain safety and quality of life.
Living spaces range from studio and efficiency apartments, each with individual temperature controls and access to central air conditioning. Housekeeping services manage cleaning and linen changes, and some units open directly to outdoor seating areas for fresh air breaks. Parking is available for residents who still drive, though not every apartment comes with a dedicated spot, outdoor access, or all listed features, so it is best to confirm availability during a tour.
Balanced nutrition is part of the daily routine. Three meals are prepared on site, and guest meals can be arranged when family or friends visit. Menus accommodate physician-ordered restrictions, including no-sugar selections for residents monitoring blood glucose. Staff can help with menu choices and portion control to ensure each person receives the diet that matches their medical plan.
Recreation and social support are organized through an activity center that hosts arts and crafts sessions, clubs and community gatherings, and birthday celebrations. Residents have the option to join supervised social outings or spend quiet time in the library and computer lounge. Outdoor areas remain available for those who prefer fresh air, and staff encourage safe use of these spaces to keep residents engaged and connected.
