Opened in 1996, Ashton Place is committed to providing the areas most comprehensive level of assistance and care in a bright, cheery, nurturing and homelike environment. Within Sarasota, we are the only ALF where the owner/administrator is also a licensed nurse. This is in addition to employing other licensed nurses. We are one of three privately owned, purpose built ALFs. We are one of three ALFs with a special Extended Congregate Care license which allow us to provide total assistance with activities of daily living, keeping our residents out of nursing homes.
