★★★★★Dawn Pearl · 2026-06-08 · via Google
“I was very impressed by Aston Park before we moved my Mother there from another facility. The friendliness and competency of the staff. The exceptional care my mother receives and the way they make it her new comfortable home.”

★★★★★Eric Jones · 2024-08-02 · via Google
“Aston Park has to have the very best, caring, and attentive staff of any facility that I have ever seen. The building is nice but the strongest facility doesn’t revolve around a building but the staff. The staff is amazing. Aston Park’s greatest asset is their caring and empathetic employees.”

★John Roland · 2026-06-08 · via Google
“I find the weekend people lack in caring. Many lights going off and none being answered. We have found our mom more than once sitting in her own feces.this is unacceptable. Not to mention what else goes on.”
