9 Best Assisted Living Facilities in Steele County, MN

I wish we had moved my mom here years earlier. I see photos of her and she is dressed up like her old self and her hair is combed nicely. They have good activities, even if she is not actually participating she is sitting at the table interacting with the other residents. They have a Facebook page for families to be able to see their loved ones. The staff is friendly and pro active and seem to enjoy their jobs.

It has been a good experience at Traditions. The staff treats my Mom wonderfully. At first we had some communication hiccups, but I think we have all those straightened out.

My mother has been living at Traditions of Waterville for nearly two years. She began in Assisted Living and now lives in Memory Care. What most impresses me is the longevity of the staff who work there. Not only is there little turn over, but they like their job, and truly care for the residents. The company and facility is managed well, costs are kept at a comparable rate (actually a bit lower) and the nursing staff is extremely knowledgeable. I have no problem communicating with everyone, and i feel my mom as well as myself is treated with full respect and patience. Not to mention the rooms and apartments are large, bright, comfortable and homey. If i end up here some day, well then I did something right. Every medical and physical need of my mother's is met, and then some. Its all the extra touches that makes Traditions 10 steps above the rest. Like doing a puzzle with my mom or fixing her hair or just sitting down and having a chat. My mom became severely ill. I believe the caring staff at traditions with their 24 hour hands on care and visual supervision saved my mom's life. I am grateful for the peace of mind Traditions of Waterville gives me and my family and for the safety it provides for mom.
