Traditions of Spring Hill

In January 2019, my husband & I visited Mr. KELLY HELGREN at your facility. As we arrived, he was there to greet us. The lady at the front office/desk was very nice with a professional attitude. She asked if we needed anything or to let her know if she could assist us in anyway. Mr. HELGREN was my neighbor, in Ironwood. MI. where I grew up. He was one of my dad's best friends. When a family friend was at the VA Hospital in Nashville, we decided to extend our stay in TN and visit Mr. Helgren at the new facility he moved into. He gave us a tour and showed us the facility: recreation room, dining facility, his one bedroom apt etc. We were very impressed with the building and it's many amnesties if had for the residents. The spiral staircase in the entrance is gorgeous! Overall, we were very impressed with the facility! Verna & Jack Underwood

My father and I had a lovely Sunday morning visiting on his front porch. He lives at Traditions of Spring Hill for almost two years now. He talked about the Michigan game (Go Blue.) I showed him video clips of his grandson, my nephew, completing four touchdowns during his high school game Friday night. He listened to my daughter sing the National Anthem at her high school football game. We took a short walk. He was eager to get to lunch. He doesnt like to miss a meal. He was also researching words for the weeks mental challenge. The engagement director, Sandy, knows my dad is smart and has tasked him with this, which he enjoys. When I first approved my dad about moving to assisted living, he told me I was ruining his life. Truthfully, my dad can be difficult. When he finally agreed to move, the journey was a challenge in every way. The first months were an adjustment and true to his nature, he found reasons to complain. Almost two years later he is a changed man. He is content, pleasant, happy, complementary and positive. Recently a team member said, Your dad is the nicest resident. Hes so sweet and funny. It truly warmed my heart. The team at Traditions got to know my dad. Sandy engaging him to research words is a perfect example. Hes not a social person by nature. He didnt want to join in at first, and still isnt a group person. With encouragement and caring, he will now partake in exercise class and the mind-games, and loves to go on every scheduled outing. My husband and daughter visited him on Fair Day last month and I was texted a photo of he and Ava. Hes having a drink and shes petting a goat. He later told me he loves the wildlife they bring to the community. He grew up on a farm and so appreciates these times to be outside, to be with animals, to be with family, to drink a beer. And yes, this is assisted living. Even today the perception of old age home persists. Trust me, this isnt your grandmothers nursing home. My husband and I took him out on Labor Day. As we were driving down a beautiful country road my dad looked out the window and said, Its glorious here. I just love it. Im so glad I live in Tennessee.Moving to Traditions of Spring Hill was the best decision for him, hands down. Its changed his life. People say to me that it's a great testimony that my father lives at one of our communities. Honestly, when it comes to my dad, I'm 'just the daughter,' and want the best for him. And I'm glad it's Traditions. One of his friends says it best, My friend lives there and he has said he's never been happier. Wonderful staff. He has made friends and is participating in activities he never did before. Best thing ever happened to him. His family is over the top. Thanks to everyone who has made his life so rich.Julie PodewitzCSOVitality LivingTraditions of Spring HIll

Very nice and professional staff.

My father is a resident at Traditions of Spring Hill. He is a hard man to please, to say the least, and he is VERY happy there. I never dreamed he would like it this much. and why not? The place is beautiful, clean, lots of activities, things to do, places to hang out. Great dining facility. Really couldn't ask for more. Highly recommended.

My friend lives there and he has said he's never been happier. Wonderful staff. He has made friends, he is participating in activities he never did before. Best thing ever happened to him. His family is over the top. Thanks to everyone who has made his life so rich.
