A Truly Lovely and Friendly Place
The Tradition is a warm and friendly place. Four years ago, after my mother passed, my father moved into The Tradition on Prestonwood, so that he would not get lonely. The beautiful décor, excellent meals, and friendly company of fellow residents gave him a wonderful home for his last year

A Truly Lovely and Friendly Place
The Tradition is a warm and friendly place. Four years ago, after my mother passed, my father moved into The Tradition on Prestonwood, so that he would not get lonely. The beautiful décor, excellent meals, and friendly company of fellow residents gave him a wonderful home for his last years. I appreciate everything that the staff does to help, the lovely events that are held, and all of the available extra activities and outings. I would highly recommend The Tradition to anyone looking for a home for their aging friend or relative.

No skilled nursing. Discussed evacuation with firewalls in stairwells so multi-story facility is not as scary. Only met with sales lady, not a nurse. Parking a major issue!! Courtyard disappointing. Food taste, choice and portion-size good.

The Tradition is a Major Disappointment!
The Tradition was full of promises and very short on delivery. My parents moved in there into Assisted Living in February and are now leaving in September. They have had a revolving door in terms of staff, medical director, and associated consulting physicians. Our car was [Removed](and luckily later recovered) by a Tradition employee. Overall, they are not organized and their care team gets about a 49%. There are a few diamonds in the rough but this place is trading on a well-decorated lobby, a polished initial sales team and a activities director who barely answers an email. It's all about new sales for them. Their daily "activities" are a joke and their food is about a 6.5.

The staff who care
This is a nice community for care. The community is clean and maintained. We are happy with the staff that is always caring. The menu is appealing with healthy choices. The menu if very good and she is happy with the menu. I am happy to see that she is involved with the activities. We would recommend this community for good care and a good value for others

After visiting several places, traditions seemed like the right fit. We were greeted everywhere we were shown. Staff was knowledgeable when questions arose. Spaces were Bright and clean. We felt a sense of peace that mom was taken care of when moving in.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Texas’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Texas’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
