Poor fit for mom

My mom lived there for a handful of months. She had an issue with overpowering air fresheners that aggravated her COPD and that was never resolved. During her stay the facility also lost their cook and the meals were not great while they searched for a new staff member. I felt she was safe and the staff was friendly and kind, but it was definitely a poor fit for her. The stay came to a planned end, but if it had been a permanent move we would have been looking for a new home for her.

We loved our visit to the community. Everyone seemed so very friendly and happy. Beautiful building with very nice size apartments. Everything seemed very clean and well kept. We came during mealtime, and it smelled wonderful, and the residents seemed to be enjoying their lunch.

When walking into the community you immediately see lots of resident and activity happening in the building. You can see people laughing and enjoying themselves. All of the staff and residents spoke when we walked through. It was a pleasure to see such a warm inviting place. The Sales Director was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Very Disappointed

Overall, management is friendly and well intentioned. But they suffer from a lack of staff and organization. They definitely promised more than they could deliver.

Great experience

We chose Traditions of Athens because they were the ones that contacted me back first and were great with their follow up. They were more proactive than some of the others we were looking into. The room sizes at the facility are very nice and spacious. It has been a good experience I would definitely recommend them to others.

Concerned - Lack of Help!

Recently, this facility is desperately short of help. There is not enough employees for the number of residents. The staff is nice but overworked. It seems they are cutting corners at the expense of the residents. For the amount of money, you pay to live here, the service is very poor. The service pertains to giving out meds, being serviced in the dining room and waiting on RCAs. And it is because they don't have enough help. This has been brought up several times to management.

Traditions of Athens is awesome for the city of Athens

Traditions of Athens is the new social setting for Athens. The elderly love the beautiful community. The atmosphere is cozy and so family like. The food is good, the care that is provided by the care staff is outstanding. The staff is always so helpful. If you are looking for a assisted living for your parents/family then this is it, Athens has hit the jackpot. My aunt loves it.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Alabama regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Alabama regulations for Assisted Living.
