Traditions Management

Our Father was in charge of picking his assisted living facility. He and his daughters visited several around Indianapolis. When he walked into Traditions at Solana, he loved the light and open feeling. Before he broke his hip, he painted beautiful watercolors...light is important to an artist. Solana is full of light and a most welcoming atmosphere. He choose Solana. We are now going into two years. He calls Solana "home". You can't do any better than that for your parent. When we go out for the day he is always ready to go home. He looks forward to the music events and "happy hour" twice a week. He has made friends here. The staff works hard to make the residents a part of the community...it takes a village...they do a great job. We are 5 siblings and we all appreciate Solana.

The experience has been going very well for my mom. So far the staff are good and they made some changes for the better. The grounds and public areas are clean and my mom's room is livable and not bad. At times there are some things left on the floor but her room is clean. They make great meals for the residents.

Brookdale Zanesville is a LOVELY place. Tell you what, I wouldn't mind living there! It gives a good first impression, and it's even better once you start looking around. And it's more affordable than some of the other places in town. I am thrilled that my 91 year old mother can live here.

My mom developed sundowners since moving into Traditions. The staff are doing a wonderful job with her since moving in. There were a few bumps in the road but the staff have been great about working with us to correct the minor issues. The food is good and they are trying to get her to participate in activities during the day. I would recommend this community.

I am very pleased. Mom seems very well adjusted. She always likes to make me feel bad but everyone else tells me she is fine. I would recommend Park Place to others.

We have found Rosewalk Commons to be the right place for mom. The staff and fellow residents have been very friendly and helpful. Everyone welcomed her and made her feel like a part of the community.

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. We ended up selecting another community, but this is somewhere I would have considered as an option for my loved one.

The extra kindnesses shown to Mom at Park Place are greatly appreciated. Not only does she receive excellent care, but a gentle knock on her door to remind her of activities, she's given the latitude to breakfast in her room on occasion (in her robe and pj's) with her own cup of tea and a piece of toast. The activities Mom participates in are numerous; she is encouraged but never coerced to participate. We especially appreciate the dignity and friendliness she is shown by all the staff, the dining room helpers, the medicine administration, and the attending doctors who attend to her every need regardless of the time of day. The entire family has come to know Park Place as extended family and are treated with respect as we visit, attend functions, and dine with Mom.

Our Dad is one of the original assisted living residents at our Meadow Brook. The experience has be exceptional. When Dad moved in, he was rebounding from a near-death experience. The attention that he has received at Meadow Brook has been amazing. The nurses and attendants are great. The Physical Therapy has been great. He enjoys the other tenants. There are activities to keep him busy. The food has been exceptional. We are very, very happy with our Meadow Brook. Terry McKenzie

My dad had very good and personable care. Rosewalk was a very clean and efficient facility. From the day we moved my dad in until the day he passed away the staff treated him with the greatest respect. I highly recommend Rosewalk for your loved one.

Meadow Brook is a very friendly place. My father is safe and loved. The staff knows my father's name and greets him every time they see him. Front office and desk staff is great! Supportive and friendly The food is amazing! Excellent variety and the quality is way above what I would expect at a retirement home. After opening the dining room was not staffed well enough but they have corrected that and service is very good now. Monthly special dinners are very nice. Families are invited and the dinners are exceptional. The rooms are spacious and very nice. The public areas are very well decorated and kept clean. My only issue with the facility is that the wellness director does not return calls and is not friendly. When a medical issue comes up with my father, I don't hear from the nurse or the wellness director. Takes many calls to get to the bottom of the issue. The facility is not full so the wellness director also acts as a nurse so in her defense she is doing two jobs but Meadow Brook does need to figure this out. Great place and would move my father in again.

Overall things have gone very well at Meadow Brook Senior Living! Everyone we've worked with has been very friendly, and very helpful! The facility itself is beautiful, and they keep everything looking clean and well kept. My only complaint is that sometimes the care feels a bit unorganized, possibly due to the facility being so new.

Beautiful but more importantly - caring! My friends mother is a resident at Meadow Brook and the transformation has been amazing! She smiles and interacts with people. She has made friends! They have so many friendly and caring people who work there. It may be a little higher than some places but well worth the piece of mind knowing that your parent is in such good hands. So may activities and the food is good too.

My aunt was a difficult patient. They did their best to please her.

Wonderful community. Very positive all around.Thankful for the guidance of others in finding this place my Mother now happily calls home.

More like a home setting then an institutional setting. Great warm and comfortable feel to the place I noticed on my first visit when I was shopping for a place for my Dad. The staff is very professional and kind. Now it is all first name basis for him which helps him feel welcomed and well cared for. It is clean and safe which is a big concern when placing a loved one.

Really liked the facility. Still not sure how the extra care pricing is figured. Woman conducting the tour did an excellent job answering our questions as well as anticipating questions we hadn’t thought of.

I like it here. I would give it a 4 because I would like more different activities. The food is good with a varied menu and the staff is very nice. I would recommend it to others

Staff is very pleasant and accommodating. They do many things to welcome newcomers and help them become acclimated. Food and d as support is good. Only thing keeping me from rating a 5 is timeliness to perform maintenance type issues on the apartment. Understood they need to prioritize more serious issues but the bathroom fan has not been working since my mom moved in. We've turned in a few work requests. Fan is still not operating. There are other things that have been addressed in a more timely manner, not sure why this one item remains. Anyway, overall we are pleased with Traditions Deerfield

Reviewing the contract for Brookdale was eye-opening due to the 40-50 potential add-on charges that increase based on care needs. Simple tasks, like laying out clothes, cost an extra $[removed] per month, while basic dressing assistance adds $[removed]. These add-ons significantly increase monthly expenses. Because my father did not qualify for the $[removed] veterans 'boots on the ground' subsidy, I decided not to enroll him. He requires a facility that accepts Medicaid and can manage a Miller's Trust. Brookdale is fine if you have a massive budget, but it is not sustainable for our financial situation.
