Kindley Assisted Living sits on the large, green campus of Asbury Methodist Village in Gaithersburg, Maryland, surrounded by gardens and a 17-acre Wildlife Preserve, and it gives seniors a wide array of care and services for one monthly price, so residents don't have to worry about entrance or community fees, which keeps things simple and clear. The team there focuses on dignity and freedom of choice, and the staff always seeks input from the residents about care and daily routines, meaning there's a real effort to personalize the experience, and everyone gets a plan of support that fits their specific needs, whether that's help with daily activities, medication management, or more involved memory care. Residents have access to spacious, tastefully decorated apartments they can make their own, and every unit comes with a kitchenette, ground-floor options, cable TV, Wi-Fi, handicap access, and either garden views or features like fireplaces, all within a safe building that has a 24-hour call and security system, with nursing staff always on duty, so families can have peace of mind.
Meals are prepared by professional chefs and there are plenty of choices, including vegetarian and vegan recipes, no-sugar options, with restaurant-style dining, snacks, and even room service if needed, so residents can eat comfortably either with friends or in their apartments. Housekeeping happens every week, including towel services, and all utilities like phone and cable are included, which helps keep life smooth. There's a full events calendar, a fitness and wellness center with a pool, rehab gym, and programs like HealthAbility that help keep residents strong and steady, along with clubs, cultural and continuing education programs, and dedicated shuttle services for trips or shopping, so life stays active and social. Friendly staff provide personal help with things like bathing or dressing, and the community offers both assisted living at Kindley Assisted Living and specialized Kindley Memory Care for those with cognitive needs, with a focus on compassionate, person-centered approaches.
Kindley is pet-friendly, so residents can bring their pets, and the community embraces both English and Spanish speakers, creating a diverse and warm place to live. Residents enjoy picnics and barbecues outside, and there are many different social activities, religious support from a chaplain, and a full-time programs director and social worker who help make sure everyone's social, spiritual, and health needs are met. The facility belongs to a larger continuing care retirement community, one of the biggest in the nation, and is fully accredited by CARF-CCAC, which means it meets high standards for care, quality, and financial stability, and the partnership with Planetree puts a special focus on personal empowerment and building strong relationships between staff and residents.
Both Asbury Methodist Village residents and people from outside are welcome to join, with no buy-in required, and everyone has priority access to memory care and the Wilson Health Care Center if their needs ever increase. The goal is always to keep residents comfortable, supported, and living as independently as possible, letting them spend more time enjoying family and friends, with a friendly and attentive team always ready to help.
