Traditions Management

My dad needed assisted living and after taking a tour of Emeritus At Lakeview I knew it was the place. It was so nice I would like to live there. The staff are friendly and helpful. Everything is clean and clean smelling.

Fourth place I visited. Liked the one-floor plan and the enclosed patios. The residents were quite friendly and lively. Met one dog along the way. The rooms were very nice. All amenities I'd think Dad would like. Residents and staff were very friendly. Christine encouraged me to bring Dad in so he could see, eat, and talk with residents. Again, I like the age-in-place philosophy. Trips to Akron for doctor seemed doable. Information for getting VA assistance was available.

My mother-in-law is there. We moved her into the Emeritus because it was cheaper than some of the other communities that we looked at. The facilities are beautiful and the staff are very friendly. The cost is very expensive there, and I thought they would supply her with her Depends but, while they do have Depends available, it's an extra $85 per month. It's not included in her rent.

FIRST CHOICE...Unfurnished Studio unit at $2495 available now; $500 deposit; cable included/24-7 nursing;laundry and housekeeping incl.;PT available 3x/week; buddy system upon move-in with an emphasis on socialization and activities. Will work with other Emeritus properties. Color scheme and personal photographs welcome.

Nice place. Director was helpful and very nice. Large, clean, odorless but not what my mother would feel comfortable in.

Toured the facility, very nice. Dad is considering this and other options at current facility.

Was really interested in this place.

My mother-in-law has been at Traditions for approximately three months. The direct care givers are always courteous and kind toward the patients. They often are sitting watching residents from a distance during the activities. They are quite busy near mealtime, gathering residents, getting them situated, plating food, etc., etc. I am confident that she is receiving the best care possible and am glad to have selected Traditions as her new residence.

Pluses- friendly staff; nice, clean, inviting facility (a place I'm happy to go to 3-4 times/week; they let you host parties there in several different areas for free; they seem to work on problems that need to be fixed; my parents love the quiet outdoor environment with trees & and a river on one side and a lake on the other, mom loves to watch the sun set over the lake; they host fun parties for residents- summer BBQ, Christmas, Mother's & Father's Day luncheons; they bring in live musicians Minuses- staff turnover, especially in MC; communication issues with staff & families; making sure my dad in MC is getting what we're paying for-have to stay on top of them (dad can't tell me) Overall very happy. When asked, mom said no to moving. Dad comes down to her apt to visit from MC but she also has space from him & she has made friends & gotten involved in activities.

I am amazed at how dedicated the staff is at their jobs that take care of us. I am grateful for how they do that with such kindness.

I was amazed when I first came here it was seamless to move here. This place is very homey. The maintenance team put up bars in my bathroom to make me feel more safe. I have a screened in porch and love it here. The location is great with so many things around as well. I like that I feel like I live in a house but it is easier to maintain. I am very pleased with traditions.

The front desk staff is very great. [name removed] has a tough job but she does it very very well. I am happy with the cleaning staff and they always do a great job. [name removed] and [name removed] are two of the best people that work here. They are willing to help everyone and do it so graciously. Nurses are great and very helpful.

Brookdale has been a pretty decent place for my mom. she's getting good care and the people seem to like their jobs and put forth effort. I especially like how close it is to where I live and the cleanliness. they could improve a little on their staffing, but I understand that's the way things are now. they have very good communication, anytime they do something or something happens I know about it. its a good place for people that need care and there are other people around who are in the same state. they keep an eye on the residents, most people there are friendly and used to caring for those with Alzheimer's or dementia. they know how to care for them better than a nursing home would.

We had a really nice tour at Traditions of Deerfield, and they were in our top two. We chose the other facility because it was a little more upscale, so it fit my loved one's preferences better. But Traditions of Deerfield was still really nice.

This location was fine. The person who gave us the tour had a lot of information and did wonderful. They just did not have what my loved ones were looking for overall.

We chose Traditions at Beaumont because of the overall atmosphere of the facility. The room sizes are adequate for her needs at this time. The staff members are very friendly and I would recommend to others looking.

Everybody really seemed to want to make the community a good place, they would try and fix the problems were problems needed to be fixed. The rooms they provided for the residents were fine, about a 4.5 out of 5. We would recommend the community with some caveats

During Covid my Mother was tired of being isolated and and alone. The idea of Assisted Living at this point in time was very frightening but I've been very pleased with Meadow Brook. I feel they are very kind and caring. The safety measures have given me peace of mind that she's protected the best she can be. She's enjoyed interacting with staff and residents each day and having activities to attend. She seems much happier than when she was home alone. I'm thankful for the attention and care Meadow Brook has provided for my loved one.

The staff is very attentive. The building is always clean and well maintained. There are daily activities that everyone can enjoy and overall it's been very nice!

My father has had excellent care and service. The food is of high quality and selection. Always good maintenance and housekeeping. The staff are all very helpful and great with any concerns. So far, no reports of COVID-19 and safe environment.
