My mother was at the Traditions of Dedham. Overall, it was OK. The room was OK. However, the place where she was before was nicer. You have to provide everything here whereas at the last place they provided some of the stuff. Here, you have to bring everything. They also don't have cable and you couldn't access WiFi. Those were really the negatives. They have activities, but my mother doesn't participate a lot because she has a lot of friends and families visiting her everyday, so she really doesn't get to do much of that. Also, she wasn't allowed to leave her room without somebody pushing her in the wheelchair. She said the food was fine. They have a small outside courtyard. They took care of her, but I didn't think they offered very much. She was taken care of, which was the most important thing, and she said the staff was great.

I visited this facility
Traditions of Dedham seemed small, but pleasant. They have a television showing demonstrations of how to do exercises in a room that was used for a number of things. There were limited activities. The facilities were limited as well.
Provider Response
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. LCB Senior Living did not take over operations of Traditions of Dedham until May of 2019. Since that time, we have been working on several improvements to both the community and the engagement programming available to residents. We are sorry your prior experience was not ideal, and urge you to visit again! Thank you again and have a great day.

We went with Traditions at Dedham. The first thing I liked was the fact that my mother actually could do assisted living, and my father would be in the dementia ward. It had both accommodations. They do have memory classes and exercise classes. They also take them out twice a week. They have breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it is a wonderful facility. We wouldn’t have made that decision if it wasn’t like that.

My entire family loved Traditions of Dedham, the Management and staff are amazing. The Executive Director always has her door open for all. The staff is treated well, so they treat the residents well. The activity team always had something going on my grandmother had a ball. They would have activity at the community all day and also travel to activities. My grandmother went to plays and shopping. She had a better social life than I did. The food very good, my family would eat there a few times a month. They had many party for resiidents and families. My grandmother was well taken care of the aids always made sure she was loved. I look forward to kiving there myself someday")

My 90something Grandmother lives here and I visit her often. The staff is always friendly and considerate, yet not in the way. Ma has a wonderful social life with her friends that live there with the activities provided on the grounds, as well as the outings provided for those interested.
Ma's biggest complaint comes with the food: she is of Italian ancestry and loves garlicky spaghetti, and finds the food too bland... but not too bland that she won't eat it. She has a lovely apartment complete with kitchenette, microwave, and full bath, and the staff takes very good care of her when they come in to help her change her linens, or attend her other needs. Ma can be crotchety, and the staff takes it in stride, and even listens - and made changes to accommodate a fiesty 90something.
