About this facility
Aston Park Health Care Center is a nonprofit senior care center on Brevard Road in west Asheville, locally owned and operated and established in the Asheville community since 1980. Unusually for the area, it brings three levels of care together under one roof: skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, and secured memory care assisted living. The skilled nursing program provides 24-hour nursing for residents who need ongoing medical attention.
The rehabilitation side centers on an 18-bed short-term unit for people recovering from surgery, a hospital stay, or an illness, with the remaining beds certified for skilled nursing. Its memory care assisted living offers a secure setting for residents with Alzheimer’s or other dementias. Because it is nonprofit and long established, it tends to emphasize mission over margin.
