Everything you need to know

The staff are wonderful! They are very attentive, and I can always depend on them for whatever I need. I have enjoyed all the activities such as the card games, painting, drawing and Bingo. I also like the fact that I can have physical therapy and occupational therapy in my apartment.

Everyone is Happy!

I moved into Traditions 8 months ago. Prior to that move, I visited Independent Living facilities in Tucson, AZ and in Bethlehem. What separates Traditions from all the others is the friendliness-the staff, the servers, maintenance, etc. and everyone is happy! Residents included.

Traditions has given me a new home

I am very pleased overall. I appreciate the home like atmosphere of Traditions. I have formed many new friendships. I lived in Florida for 62 years and didn't know what to expect moving up here to be closer to my niece. Traditions has given me a new home.

I have been a resident here for over a year. Traditions of Hanover stood out to me because everything was well kept and was comfortable. I have made a lot of great friends and my tablemates at meals have become my family.

Review for Traditions of Hanover

We moved my mother-in-law in last year. We couldn't be happier with the facilities and the staff. The rooms are very nice and spacious, there are lots of activities the residents can participate in, and the special occasion and holiday programs the staff puts together are wonderful. My mother-in-law has a much better quality of life now since moving in, she is making friends, plays cards and bingo, and occasionally feels adventurous enough to venture out on her own on her scooter to Wegmans. She now has a busier so
