    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    The reviews for Asbury Heights, a senior living facility, present a mixed picture of resident experiences and family observations. Some reviewers express serious concerns about the facility, including allegations of neglect, abuse, and mismanagement. Specific complaints include instances of residents falling due to inadequate staffing, failure to follow care instructions, and personal items going missing. Concerns about the facility's reputation with health departments and management's prioritization of profit over care were also noted.

    On the other hand, several reviews highlight positive aspects of Asbury Heights. These include the facility meeting the needs of residents with dementia through comfort, amenities, safety, and compassionate staff. The facility's efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as investing in negative pressure rooms and providing excellent communication and care, were praised. The availability of various conveniences on-site and the renovation efforts under new management by UPMC to improve accommodations were also appreciated.

    However, some reviews offer a more neutral perspective, describing the experience as "so, so" or pointing out areas for improvement such as the need for better lighting in the parking lot and more engaging activities for residents. The quality of meals and the dedication of nurses and staff during challenging times were commended, yet there were also criticisms of the facility's aesthetics and the professionalism of some staff members.

    In summary, while Asbury Heights has been lauded for certain aspects of its care and facilities, particularly in relation to handling the pandemic and providing a range of amenities, there are significant concerns regarding resident safety, staff behavior, and overall management practices. Prospective residents and their families are advised to carefully consider these reviews when making decisions about senior care.
