Traditions Management

Traditions at Solana We have encountered nothing but kindness, caring and heartfelt quality service. This is the best choice we could have made for my 97 year old father, as well as for our widespread family. The staff is excellent in caring for and making my father feel loved. He feels like he is amid a large, loving family. Although not so large that he gets lost in the crowd. There is another thing, too: the staff is excellent in helping us family members with no experience in caregiving cope with the various, and sometimes harsh, realities of this stage of his life. To start with, when we first started looking, we showed up without an appointment on more than one occasion and each time whomever we met stopped what they were doing and met with us and gave us tours of the facility and the specific room we eventually chose. Once we made our commitment, we were referred to movers who specialize in helping families in our situation move their loved one into a retirement facility – those movers made everything so easy for us – packed us, moved us over, unpacked us, including filling the icebox, put up the blinds and even hung pictures. Moving in was entirely painless for us, and stress free. The campus of Traditions at Solana is beautiful. The building itself is situated on a peninsula that extends out with White River on one side and a lagoon on the other. Across the lagoon is an apartment complex with active residents who often provide entertainment in the lagoon during boating and swimming season. And watching the river is a nice alternative to watching TV. There are large open rooms on each floor – the main lobby on the first, the library on the second and a crafts area on the third. My father loves doing jigsaw puzzles in the library, and is often joined by other residents who like to get in their two cents worth. There is a great deal of space, just the right amount to have enough room for privacy and yet not so much to get lost in the crowd. The community spaces are always neat and clean. The dining facilities are just right, too. Dad loves the food. The staff seems to make a point of knowing each resident, to the point there is no need for my father to ask for a dish of vanilla ice cream after his meal. This is a hard working group of people, taking care of one of the residents’ main points of the day. In summary: great location, beautiful grounds, well kept facility, high quality and talented staff, lots of love. I highly recommend Traditions at Solana. As I said at the beginning: We have encountered nothing but kindness, and quality care by quality, and qualified people.

If there is an apartment available, we think that this is one of the best places to live, if you need some assistance with medications and are requiring more assistance as you age (from 85, in our case). You can also keep your cat or small dog. The care services and friendliness are amazing, compared to the former place where my Mom resided.

Gentry Park's food is great! Especially the desserts. The chef is awesome! The staff is so friendly and helpful. My daughter's couldn't find anyone here that was not nice.

Very clean facility with LOTS of activities. Very friendly staff.

Gentry Park is a beautiful community, beautiful landscape, with a rain garden and a walking path. My dad loves the outings and all of the activities. The dining room is beautiful and the menu is varied. Dad has plenty of choices! All of the employees are anxious to help in any way that they can. We love our nurses and nursing assistants! We love Gentry Park!

Staff is very dedicated to each resident. Several activities daily for residents to choose from. Building has Independent, Assisted Living and Memory Care. Great Food, many family involved events. I have placed several clients in this community and have not has an issue that could be solved, everyone is dedicated to Resident First. You can’t go wrong by placing a loved one in this Community if they want to be loved on, be social and enjoy great food.

My mother lives at Traditions at Solana and it was the best place for her and my family. The community is BEAUTIFUL. The staff really care about the residents. Always activities, entertaiment and great food. Mom has laughed so much since making Traditions at Solana her home. She has made many great friends. The nursing staff, housekeeping staff and dietary staff along with the management staff go the extra mile. The beautiful view of the river reminds her when she was young. It's just a great place to be.

I visited 17 senior/assisted living facilities and chose Meadow Brook for my mother. The staff is phenomenal from the servers, aids, nurses, maintenance, front desk and all the way up the chain of command. [name removed], the community relations director, gave me the initial tour and was caring, informative and was willing to spend whatever time I needed to feel comfortable with my mom coming there to live. [name removed], Director of the entire community, spent a lot of time on the phone with me when I was out of town and my mom needed to transfer to the memory care unit. She was patient with all my questions and concerns and was available by phone at all hours. By the time I returned my mom was moved and happy again! I would highly recommend Meadow Brook and I am so relieved my mom is safe and happy.

As a physician involved in the care of the elderly, some of whom with chronic, debilitating illnesses, I periodically explore the quality of facilities geared toward providing assistance and varying levels of care to individuals in need of supportive services. I have found Traditions at Reagan Park to represent an environment of cleanliness, safety and security for a wide spectrum of residents, from those who are totally independent to others who require strong support and aid. I am very familiar with the excellent track record of the Executive Director of Traditions at Reagan Park as an administrator and "hands on" manager, and have great confidence in her ability to lead this facility to even higher levels of excellence. I would recommend Traditions at Reagan Park without reservation.

I love the food here! The food is always good and I have so many choices! I also love all the friends I have made. It’s like I have a new family. The staff is so nice and the building is always clean. The community make me feel so safe.

Great Community. Staff are warm and inviting. The move-in process is flawless. This was so helpful to our family with the transition of moving our mom in. Thank you.

Traditions is Awesome! Mom is happy with her Home, there. [Removed], and staff are Super people.

My mother has lived at Traditions for over a year. Because this place is so wonderful. I am able to leave town for a week or two and know that my mother will be well taken care of. They get to know their residents and do the little things that make a difference. The facility is beautiful, but the people that work there make it even more beautiful. They really care about their residents and it shows.

I enjoyed the tour. The community, is new, clean and beautiful. The garden houses are spacious and everything I wanted! I will be moving in this month!

Recently moved my mother to Gentry Park and extremely pleased. Staff is very professional and accommodating. The facility is new, very clean and well planned. Great service and acting programs. First class.

Warm community, great staff, fortunate to have such a great option on the west side.

Traditions at Regan Park is a very inviting community. From the dietary staff up to the executive director, I have been met with an openness that I can see resonate with their residents. Whether during community events or any other time I’ve stopped in, it has been easy to see the family atmosphere that makes this home. When needed, their healthcare partners work seamlessly coordinating care to help residents age in place and stay in their home.

I really like living here because everything provided is convenient for me. I think that is good!

I have nothing to compare. So far very fine.
