Bennett Place in New Albany, IN

I sensed a real concern by the staff for the people under their care. While there may have been internal (employee/employer) issues, as there may be in any work environment, it never manifested itself in my presence. In my opinion, employees are acting professionally in that regard. As for the facility, it was wonderful, above what I expected to find.

River Crossing in Charlestown, IN

The community is very caring and friendly. The experience was wonderful. The staff were very accommodating to the requests of our loved one. I would highly recommend this community to others for their loved one. The staff communication with the family was great! The Director of Marketing and Director of Nursing went to visit my loved one and introduce themselves. They were very patient with our loved one and this meant the world to the family!

I was worried in the beginning that my mom wouldn’t like it and I had made a mistake suggesting that she go into assisted living. After about 2 weeks she got her routine and started socializing. Now she tells her friends and family that she just loves it At Traditions of Hunter station. She plays bingo, cards, and enjoys the live entertainment. She is almost always doing something. Thank you “a place for mom” with suggestions on facilities to visit and helping us get the ball rolling.

It was homey, and seemed like a pleasant place to be. It was a little closer to town, and was very inviting. There's lots of land around it, which was nice.
