Asher Point Independent Living of Amarillo is designed for older adults who want to maintain an independent lifestyle while having professional support readily available. The community’s on-site hospice coordination means that residents who later require end-of-life care can receive those services without leaving the property, reducing disruptive transitions. Licensed nursing oversight and regular wellness checks support residents in managing chronic conditions, and staff members remain on call around the clock to respond to urgent health needs or to help residents arrange off-site medical appointments.
Beyond direct medical oversight, the community supports residents’ day-to-day independence with practical services. Weekly housekeeping and personal laundry are included for everyone in Independent Living, removing two taxing chores from residents’ to-do lists. Team members handle building maintenance and groundskeeping as well, allowing residents to enjoy the campus without worrying about repairs or yard work. The staff encourages self-direction while still being available to coordinate additional outside services if a resident’s care needs change.
Apartment layouts vary, and not every residence includes every feature, but options can include wheelchair-accessible showers, kitchenettes, private balconies or patios, cable or satellite TV connections, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Select units offer views of the central fireplace lounge, while others overlook landscaped outdoor areas or the community deck. Common spaces feature a piano and other gathering spots, and on-site parking is available for residents who keep their own vehicles. Climate control and handicap-accessible design elements are standard throughout the building.
Meals follow a set menu served in a communal dining room, offering residents predictable mealtimes and consistent nutrition. The kitchen staff prepares balanced dishes that rotate seasonally, and residents can give feedback on menu items through regular surveys or direct conversation with the culinary team. For those who enjoy cooking occasionally, apartments with kitchenettes make it easy to brew coffee or prepare light snacks between scheduled meals.
Additional amenities round out daily life. Resident parking allows drivers to come and go freely, while scheduled transportation helps others reach local appointments and shopping. A full-service barber and beauty shop, a dedicated movie room, a well-stocked library, and organized special-interest clubs give residents multiple ways to stay active and social. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
