Memory Care
My friend lost her husband and had no one to help her. I knew she couldn't continue to live in her home with the early stages of dementia so I began looking into nearby assisted living places. Traditions has a great staff of hard working , caring people, and the location on White river fit [name removed] needs perfectly. Since her move just a few weeks ago, she's beginning to thrive under their care. It's not easy adjusting, but such a relief knowing she's doing as well as she is.
Read moreThis community is beautiful and the staff are top notch. My family and I are so happy we made the right choice for our mother. The new administration and Dietary team are doing a great job moving things forward. Thank you Glasswater for letting me rest at night while you take such good care of my mom.
Read moreThe people at Five Star Residences are genuinely interested in caring for the residents. I especially like that it is a smaller community, everything is on one floor. The distance from the common areas to their rooms was not as daunting as seen in other places. This facility is a hidden gem, I don't think a lot of people know about it. They truly have everything you'd want.
