"Friendly staff, varied activities; needs more breakfast options."

The staff is usually friendly. My father-in-law doesn't mind the food but wants more warm breakfast options. There are plenty of activities available, though he's not very active. He enjoys socializing in the entry area, and looks forward to Popcorn Tuesdays and Cookie Thursdays.

"Poor Sanitation and Facilities; Urgent Upgrades Needed"

This place needs a lot of upgrades - it should at least be meeting basic standards. When we first moved, our place was really dirty and hasn't been properly cleaned even now. Our bathtub is coated in grime, the dishwasher malfunctioning, and the rusty garbage disposal could do with a replacement. It's also hard to get from the lobby to the garage because there's no easy access for disabled people. The nursing services they provide aren't that great, though they're saying they're going to improve that.

"Great Assisted Living Experience!"

It's affordable, and the units are spacious. My mom enjoys the food, and the layout is nice. They even have outdoor space for residents. The staff has been incredible during Covid-19, lifting everyone's spirits.

"Warm, Friendly Atmosphere Makes This Place Feel Like Home"

I've been living here for 2 years, and it's been the best decision I ever made. The moment you walk in, the warm and friendly atmosphere makes you feel right at home. The other residents feel like extended family. It truly feels like home. Come visit and become part of our family.

"Great place, just too far"

My tour of Tradition was great. The place was really nice and the people were kind. It was just too far from where my mom wanted to stay, which is why we didn't choose it.

"Great staff and food, minor cable issue, recommend this community"

The people who work here are nice. I enjoyed the food, but my mom only likes some of it. They give us different options to choose from. The place is kept in good condition, and I think it's a good place to live. The only little problem we have is with the cable company. My mom hasn't been able to watch TV because of it.

"Caring Community with Great Food!"

I've been at Tradition for 11 years. Staff changes have mostly improved things. They're friendly and caring, and the food is great. Residents look out for each other, and the staff makes every day special.

"Better Communication Needed!"

When my family member first joined the community, communication wasn't great. But I did like that they promptly contacted me when my mom fell. The staff is friendly, and the place is always clean. I felt my mom was safe.

"Safe, Clean, and Friendly: A Highly Recommended Community Experience"

My parents are getting used to this place, and it's going pretty well. The community looks nice, and they keep it clean. The staff here is really good—they're very friendly. The food is really good, especially since my mom is picky. They have activities for the residents. I feel like they're safe and well taken care of here. I'd suggest this place to others.

"Highly recommend for friendly staff and great food!"

My parents are getting comfortable at this place. Mom is joining more activities now. They have a garden where residents can help out. The staff are nice and very helpful. The place is clean and well-kept. The food is good, which is one reason they chose to move here.

"Loving Our New Home at Tradition"

The staff at Tradition really aim to do their best. They meet our needs with excitement and attention to every detail. The apartment was in great shape when we moved in. Living here has been a fun experience. We hope to stay for many years and would recommend it to our friends.

"Great Place for My Parents"

My parents have been at Traditions for 4 months. They really like the people and the staff. They had to make a few adjustments, and Traditions was very helpful and willing to make the changes. They enjoy the food and all the activities. Plus, their apartment has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, which was important to them. My dad even said, "I'm very happy here.

"Irresponsible management and constant staff change hinders quality care"

Super hard-to-understand bills making it tough to spot issues. There's also a sad lack of attention or care towards handling problems. The staff changes a lot and so do people living there. Some workers actually told me they think we should reconsider using their services. Parking is a nightmare. On some occasions, my relatives had to park on the street because workers filled up the front lot. Even after pointing it out, nothing changed. There's toxic hand sanitizer on every table in the dining area and despite alerting them twice, no action was taken. I've even found resident medications just laying on the floor in the nurse's office. The upper management seems only focused on hiring the cheapest staff possible to save money. My mom-in-law was fine living there until I complained. Suddenly, she was declared not safe and given less than a week to move. Felt like the director was more concerned about filling the facility than the safety of the residents. She wouldn't even look me in the eye during our meeting. The only positive I can find, the dining staff and food have always been top-notch and handled everything in a highly professional way.

"Husband's Mom Thriving in Assisted Living, No Complaints"

My husband's mom stays here. I think she's mostly happy. I haven't heard of any problems or complaints; she looks perfectly fine there. Everything's good so far.

"Decline in Quality and Service at Assisted Living Facility"

My parents moved in here in . When they came, not many people lived here, but now it's full. We like it here because it's close to my house, the staff is helpful, and the apartments have new appliances. The bathrooms are big, which is great for people with walkers or wheelchairs. Plus, each apartment has a washer and dryer. If the staff doesn't see your folks for a day, they check on them, which is reassuring. Smoking is allowed in designated areas, which was another reason we chose this place. But recently, things changed. The management and restaurant staff are different now. The food used to be good, but now it's not tasty. They used to have a chef on-site, but I think they're gone. The restaurant used to be busy, but now it's empty most of the time. There are still plenty of activities, though. The new director moved the smoking area, but that's okay. However, he's not as friendly as the previous one. Maintenance is slow to fix things. We had to wait for two months for a burnt-out light bulb to be replaced. The housekeeping is okay, but they don't dust much. Some staff have thick accents, which makes it hard for seniors to understand. Overall, when we first saw this place in, we would have given it a 10 out of 10. But now, maybe it's a 6 out of 10. What happened in the last 3 months?

"Average Assisted Living Experience"

The assisted living facility was okay. The staff seemed really busy and sometimes didn’t pay attention to other problems. It felt like they had too much to do to help my mom properly. The high staff turnover worried me.

"Spacious Apartment and Easy Process"

The apartment is bigger than others we looked at for the price. It comes with a full kitchen and an easy-to-use bathroom. It also has a washer and dryer, though they aren’t used much. The staff has made everything really easy.

"Lacking A Spark: Not Really Impressed Here"

We weren't really impressed by this place.

"It's Pretty Good"

It's pretty expensive, but it's okay. I don't have anything to compare it to. I like how they handle the food; you can eat wherever you want. I can't think of anything they could improve. There's a lot happening here. It's fine for me right now.

"Wonderful Facility with Great Staff and Lots of Activities"

This is a very nice place. It's clean and the staff are friendly. The facility is newer, with people living here for only about two years. The apartments are very nice and were originally planned to be condos. It's in a good location with lots of activities. The staff know a lot about their jobs. You can stay in the same apartment and add services as you need them.
