Ashton Place

David Zeirott

I am so thankful for this place and the people who run it. Paul Finerty and Rayna Roderick are the best. I can't name all the workers I met while visiting my Dad. They love their work because they love helping other people. My Dad told me numerous times how happy he was. That's what I needed to hear to make me sleep at night. Dad passed Sunday January 16th, and he was at peace. Hospice was great. They made things so easy on us, they are definitely top notch also. All in all, I can sleep at night knowing my Dad was taken care of and he was happy. End of story!!

I just cannot say enough in praise of Ashton Place. The quality of care that my mother received, the attentive and friendly manner of the staff, and the personal involvement of the owner-manager, Paul Finerty, all exceeded expectations. Over the past 15 years my mother had been in two assisted living residences and three other assisted living/long term care facilities for rehabilitation stays after falls or surgery. All of those were fine facilities that provided good care for my mother, but Ashton Place was a level above all of them in the quality of care, the personal attentiveness, and the overall compassion that my mother received. When my wife and I were considering moving from Atlanta to Sarasota, a major consideration was finding a residence for my mother, who was elderly and had been confined to a wheelchair for several years. She did not need a full skilled nursing facility, but by being confined to a wheelchair she required an extra level of care that most assisted living facilities don’t provide. For her Ashton Place was the perfect place; she received the care that she needed in a friendly, homey environment. I should note that Ashton Place is not large, nor is it new or fancy. There are about 44 residents, so it is relatively small by today’s standards, and correspondingly it does not have elaborate common areas and upscale entertainment and exercise facilities (none of which would have really mattered to my mother had they been there). The common areas, dining rooms, entertainment spaces and porches are appropriately spacious and comfortable. Perhaps because of its moderate size, the staff members were both professional and friendly; it seemed that most knew my mother by name and always seemed to be concerned about her welfare and comfort. Ashton Place was a wonderful home for my mother, and I would recommend it highly to anyone wishing for similar care for their loved one.

I want to personally thank Ashton Place and its staff. They took excellent care of my mom. Since I am not local I needed to feel that she was safe and in good hands. Ashton Place is family owned. They limit the amount of residents so that everyone can have the best care. I like that. Staff Leader Harry, Nurse Rena and owner Paul are very accessible. I can always reach someone if need be and they can always reach me. If you are looking for a solid facility I recommend Ashton Place in Sarasota. This photo was taken by Rena at Ashton and texted to me. Great place!

Ashton Place is the story of a different assisted living facility. The first word that comes to mind is family. Paul started out with family and Ashton Place is based on the most important word- family. Every resident is taken care of like family. I have had my wife at two rehab facilities and two other assisted living facilities. The difference is like day and night. They are the most caring and compassionate people I've met. The only thing I can say is the I will be forever grateful, thank you Paul Jeno Sumegi
