As this blog comes together, our list of Traditions Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care communities continues to grow throughout Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, with four more in various stages of construction.
And yet, what we want people to know most of all is that we’re growing with purpose.
In an age of significant mergers and acquisitions, we are growing slowly, intentionally, and in response to what seniors and their families hear.
We hear that people love a beautiful building that’s bright and clean and filled with the comforts of home. Yet, it’s what happens inside these buildings that matters the most. People want expert, compassionate care when they need it, a variety of activities, great food and company, and it all from people who feel like trusted friends and family.
That’s why we believe it’s so important to remind seniors, families, and friends that we are locally owned and operated. The professionals who care, cook, and clean for residents are members of the local community, people who show up each day because this is where they love to be.
While each professional has a job description and necessary tasks, small but important things always take precedence. When a resident needs a friend, a hug, or someone who’s there to laugh or listen, this is when we’re at our best. We encourage independence—nothing feels quite as good—but support is always at hand, offered with dignity, respect, and personal attention. These things turn a building into a comfortable and loving home.
The people who come to work daily in Traditions communities overwhelmingly see their role as less a job and more of a calling to serve. This is on display daily in our communities, not just in a brochure or building tour. This is what we do, and we do it with genuine care and compassion.
So this is how we’re growing with the most important people in mind.
