Mission: Creating services for seniors that enhance
the value of the entire span of life.
We have a plan. We have a purpose.
Our mission challenges us to create services for seniors that enhance
the value of the entire span of life. Meeting this challenge requires
proven business expertise, foresight and organizational excellence. We
have a plan that organizes our many abilities and maps the way forward,
bringing together ideas and organizations to create new possibilities
for the future.
Asbury Communities' sense of purpose is crucial to the
success of our mission. Our longstanding tradition of benevolent care
and core values flows from a firm
spiritual basis
. These
values—commitment to our residents, associates and volunteers;
stewardship and financial strength; quality and innovation; and
integrity—inspire us in everything we do. Our values give us purpose and
guide our plan.
A spirit of partnership.
Our plan to bring together ideas and organizations is seen in our system
of communities that share best practices in order to set a new standard
in serving seniors. These efforts are supported by Asbury's leadership
and centralized resources, working within a framework of cooperation
that honors each community's own traditions and values. Our consolidated
operating company,
Asbury Atlantic,
Inc., provides an efficient means of carrying out our system
structure and ensuring an effective use of centralized resources and
volunteer leadership. Every community is a trusted partner, and together
we benchmark best practices and innovate exceptional services. Our
Wellness Centers are one example, where ideas like continuing education
and therapeutic massage support a wellness philosophy that extends
beyond the physical to include the spiritual, intellectual, vocational,
social and emotional aspects of living.
Working together to expand possibilities.
Asbury Communities grows with every new affiliation, expanding our market
and our diversity of services. We are currently 14th in size among the
nation's top 50 not-for-profit retirement systems*. However, numbers and
statistics alone do not truly measure a company, nor do past retirement
solutions always solve the problems seniors face today, or will face in
the future. At Asbury Communities, one of our core values is innovation,
and our focus and true measure of growth lies in our ability to create
new services that meet the needs of the next generation of seniors.
