My sister resided in assisted living at Traditions at Camargo for 1 1/2 years. We found it to be a very friendly and well maintained facility. The management staff was always available to discuss our needs or concerns. As her needs increased, the nursing staff worked with us ( family) to manage her care. There are several types of activities to participate in. It is up to each person to find their niche. My sister loved Bingo and found friends there along with companionship in the Dining Room for her meals. I highly recommend Traditions at Camargo. It was a comfort to our family to know that our sister was in a safe and caring facility.

Traditions is a great partner with the city of Madeira! The community room hosts lots of activities for area seniors. The place is always clean and comfortable!!!!

My parents have been living here for over a year now. Everyone is always so friendly and everything is so clean. My parents love all the activities. My dad needs a little assistance and gets very good help.

It's a place full of beauty.

Just wanted to share how much I enjoy working with the staff and residents at Traditions of Camargo. Lots of caring hearts here!

My parents moved in over 6mos ago and things are going great! My father had a stroke and my mom was unable to care for him due to her own health issues. I was able to move them in to be together again and they are really enjoying the community, friends and getting the help they need. The community has made a huge difference in their daily lives. When on their own, they were very isolated and cut-off from the outside world. Madeira is also such a nice walking community, even in their scooters, they can get out on nice days and enjoy the added bonuses of a small quaint town. I would suggest anybody looking for a loved one should tour with Traditions at Camargo to see what they have to offer!

My mother has resided at Traditions for a little over two years now. She began in the assisted living community and has since moved into memory care. She has spent about a year in each. I was very critical in the beginning, focusing on everything that I thought was not being done for her, or things that needed improvement. After many visits, I can now say that I have "walked a mile in the staff's shoes," and my judgements have changed drastically. You see, within any organization, there are limitations. Financial, physical, material, etc. I failed to realize this in the beginning and "missed the forest for the trees". It is my opinion that Traditions and its staff operate to the best of their ability with the resources that are available to them with one goal in mind. That goal is to take care of its residents in a compassionate and dignified manner. My mother has flourished in this environment and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful place to care for their loved ones. I know in my heart that as easy as it may be to point fingers and write bad reviews, that I could never provide the level of care that Traditions provides in my own home.

My mom moved in 2022, following a stay for rehab. She is a tough cookie but is very pleased with the food and laid back nature of the community.

My dad moved in 2022. He very happy with the community and care given. He loves the dining area with summit!

I wish to comment [name removed]. On [date removed] I asked her to notify the servers in the dining room that [name removed] and I were ready to order dinner. Instead, without being asked, she picked up a pad and took our order, as well as orders from others. She delivered our meals.

Nurses at Traditions are the best! Always helpful.

They have been very helpful. They staff are very attentive, and they have been able to figure out my loved one's needs very quickly. The staff communication has been great. They are quick to call if something comes up, and they are responsive to the family's questions or concerns. The meals are served three times a day in the dining room. The community will take meals to the residents rooms by requests.

Nurses at Traditions are the best. Yes, helpful.

My husband and I moved here in late 2019. This is the right place for us. We are comfortable in our spacious Independent Living apartment, we have great neighbors, friendly personnel, Management listens, and the location could not be better. I gave it four stars because there's always room for improvement, although I realize that during and after Covid it has been very difficult to get enough help in the kitchen, dining room, and cleaning departments.

I was welcomed at Traditions at Camargo as soon as I walked in the door. Working here has been an absolute pleasure. I love getting to know and work with the residents and staff. Our love and care for the residents is top notch. Thanks for being a wonderful team!

Top notch senior living facility. Like a luxury hotel with great amenities.

It was easy to move in. They've been extremely helpful whenever a situation or concern arises. Even when my family member misplaced her purse, they were super helpful making sure we found it. They couldn't be nicer. The facility is extremely well kept and very nice. It's more on the up-scale side. My family member seems to like the food overall. Their cost is in line with everything else in the area. We've been impressed with the whole experience so far.

My mom is very hard to please, but she always tells me how nice the staff is and shows me what she made in several craft activities. Loves the religious services.

I am writing for the purpose of sharing my experience as an IL resident since Nov. 5, 2019 and to express my gratitude for creating the facility which I proudly consider as my home.

As a retired Engineer who had corporate responsibilities and experience in management, I perhaps see operations of Traditions differently than other 92 year old residents and I therefore wanted to share my comments.

Beginning at the top, your Executive Director Brian, is truly the “GLUE” that keeps all facets of the total operations fully functional. His seemingly endless energy and attention to details has allowed him to stay ahead of the myriad of problems which occur with opening a brand new LTC facility and then operating it under the prolonged attack of COVID. One can only imagine the magnitude of stress he has absorbed. His door is always open to both residents and apparently staff. He listens attentively without interruption and then gives an appropriate response with a plan for solving any problems. He has a deep seated sense of humor and keeps dialogue light, comfortable and yet specific. Smiles are always included in his response.

Managers of the complex of the various departments echo Brian’s commitment, efficiency, and flexibility, sharing responsibilities when conditions require it. To the residents, it is evident who is responsible for each department. Again, all dialogue is specific, low key and comfortable for those involved. Residents who are habitually loud and outspoken are skillfully calmed.

The operating floor of the total facility is much more complex in its details as it clearly involves governing regulations, authorized contracts, communication, individual circumstances, employee qualifications, and others.

The dining room servers, cleaning staff and medical aids which residents have contact with are intent with their specific duties, have varying efficiencies, seemingly happy, sometimes smiling although it’s difficult to see with the constant wearing of masks, many calling residents by their first name. Employees manning the front desk are always friendly, know residents by name and have done an outstanding job in meeting the horrendous demands caused by COVID. Many times large groups of outsiders are bunched together trying to sign in or out, ask directions, get N95 masks etc., yet the person behind the desk remains calm, pleasant and efficiently sorts through the questions and any problems and calmly returns to the front door of our facility.

If you have been able to read at least some of my unsteady, left handed writing, you are aware that I am truly grateful to live here in Traditions at Camargo and do fully appreciate the endless efforts being made by Brian and his entire staff to provide a safe, efficient and comfortable loving home for those of us who are in the twilight of our long lives. - THANK YOU."

The management team at Traditions was available, communicative, and always willing to help through my father-in-law's transition there. So many residents are happy and enjoying their time due to the team's efforts, from dining to activities.

Great staff, awesome level of intuition and empathy. Easily and adeptly handle [complicated] good food and lively campus.

In my opinion, I believe that Madeira is a wonderful city to live in and Traditions is a fantastic community to reside in.

We love it! Dad made friends quickly and it's great watching him socialize again. We wish we had done this sooner.

Very beautiful clean campus. Staff is professional, friendly and great to partner with! Great communication with Tera!

Yesterday I received the most wonderful and neat package - a framed story that detailed how Tom and I met and began our life together. You captured what Tom and I always thought, that our meeting and marriage was providential. For both of us, it was a good feeling to reminisce about the past and the good times.

It comes at such a meaningful time as we are facing the challenges brought on by Tom's Alzheimer's. Thank you and the Traditions staff for your thoughtfulness.

Traditions is a friendly place. We have been there for 2 years and are happy living there. It's not perfect, but we are content and would not consider moving.

I cannot think of a more competent and calm moving coordinator than DJ! He made our out-of-state move so easy and seamless! Whenever I see him around the facility he is always smiling and calm! I look forward to seeing him!!!

I am a medical social worker that has been in the healthcare industry in the Greater Cincinnati area for my entire professional career of 20 years. With that being said, I have a very high standard of care I expect for all my clients. This is especially important when families are deciding what is the best fit and appropriate community for their loved one. Traditions at Camargo has been a refreshing newer option in senior living with superior care, customer service, communication and follow-up. I work primarily with Stephanie Stoll, who allows the clients I send her to feel instantly at ease. Just as I do everything I can to make families feel they are in the best hands, so does Mrs. Stoll. Particularly with such an uncertainty in our future and the challenges with 2020, Traditions at Camargo has found safe ways for clients to be less anxious about their moving experience. The community is not only beautiful and offers many amenities for seniors, but also accommodates clients who need little to no care, as well as seniors who require more care both physically and cognitively. Cincinnati is very fortunate to have a senior community that caters to the ever-changing needs of families, while providing a safe, satisfying quality of life for their loved ones.

Traditions of Camargo is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is brand new, and maintained to the highest level. They have thought of everything to meet the needs of families. The staff is committed to providing excellent care; recognizing the importance of keeping residents and family members safe yet connected during these crazy times, they are going the extra mile with video chats and FaceTime. Simply a great place to be!

We have had an excellent experience at Traditions so far! My grandma moved in during the pandemic, and everyone has been so helpful, friendly and genuinely concerned about the health and wellbeing of not only the residents, but also of each other. Maria at the front desk is so welcoming and friendly. And the staff that stops by the room while I'm taking care of my grandma each know her name, smile, greet her directly and speak loud enough so she can hear them. And the place is new! It smells and looks like a brand-new hotel. The services and activities they offer seem abundant, although things have changed since we're in this pandemic. Makes sense to me. Regardless, Leigh (the activity director) is always coming up with new ways to engage the residents and celebrate the residents and staff. She also knows everyone and the residents all seem to love her. Steph (the community relations director) was incredibly thorough and honest. The whole staff seems to be responsive and genuinely concerned about providing a great experience for the residents.

This is a beautiful community and I believe that I will enjoy life here. The people are warm and friendly also! The surroundings have everything to make this location wonderful.

Traditions at Camargo is a beautiful Independent/Assisted living facility. The staff is friendly and care a great deal about their residents. The Executive Director is quick to respond and works with you to address any concerns you might have. It has been a pleasure working with the staff at Traditions at Camargo.

I cannot thank you enough for all of your help with my mother's move into Memory Care at Traditions at Camargo. From making sure the flatbed was available, to the window treatment installation before my mother's arrival to the special welcome sign on her door--you didn't miss a thing. The wood box from Poland in her welcome gift was truly above and beyond. Your thoughtfulness and care is very appreciated.

I'm so glad our family chose Traditions of Camargo for my grandmother, it's elegant, but not stuffy (which is how other places in the area felt). When we first toured almost a year ago now (before Covid), we had the opportunity to talk to several managers. We asked every question possible and liked what we heard, although you never know how things will truly translate into real life. We have not been disappointed, this team does everything they can for my grandmother. She raves about the food every time we talk, and loves how the activities people come to check on her almost every day. The extra care and concern goes a long way when people can't see their families like they used to. It's a huge weight off my mom's shoulders knowing that her mom is cared for. My grandmother has been there for several months now, and while there have been a few bumps (to be expected), we are pleased overall. We look forward to being able to spend more time with her in your fabulous bar area and outdoor spaces. Thank you for keeping her safe and happy!

Beautiful facility!

We are Certified Senior Advisors who own a local senior placement company. We are fully knowledgeable of the senior communities within greater Cincinnati. We greatly value the excellent work of the Community Relations Director and Executive Director at Traditions at Camargo. They listen actively and respectfully to our clients. They are knowledgeable about the needs of seniors and they help our clients thrive in whatever season of life they find themselves. We appreciate the compassionate care that they and their staff demonstrate. We have recommended this community not just to our clients but also to our family and friends.

I am so glad we chose Camargo for Mother's memory care! The staff there is wonderful. Everyone from maintenance, to the chef, nursing, concierge, etc. has been so helpful and friendly. Mother has embraced her new friends (staff and residents) and is truly happy. Who could ask for more?

Camargo is still a beautiful facility, with a very nice, knowledgeable and attentive staff.

I've never been more blown away than I was by the passion the Camargo staff displayed throughout this process.

I can't begin to thank each and every one of you gals for how wonderfully you took care of my sister, Dorothy. She loved each of you and this lovely home. You all have a very special place here and do great work. Dorothy loved you all.

A warm and friendly place. Everyone is caring and helpful. The facility is beautiful with many things for the resident to do.

The staff is kind, caring and professional.

Our family is very pleased with my father's move to this community. It is a very nice place with great people. We know he is safe and receiving great care. I do not live in the same state, but I have gotten nothing but positive reports from our family. It is an excellent community and I would recommend it.

Staff members are helpful and kind. Management has been open and responsive to all feedback.

It was harder for me to get around and i couldn't drive. And so my niece and I decided, it was time for me to find a place where I could have companionship. I just love getting up and coming to the restaurant and having something to eat and not having to worry about my food and the weather of getting out and doing the dishes.

I feel she is safe. They are so patient with our loved ones. The get the residents involved. The staff call residents by their names. They smile and say hello. It takes special people to work with memory care people. They are that special. I can sleep!

I think that because with mother here, I feel that it's given her some safety, some security, while still honoring her independence. And that's been a comfort for me, that I'm not thinking she's by herself. She's very social and she has lots of friends. Lots of activities, which she did not have in her condo. My husband and I were her social outlets, probably for quite a while.

Well, I had four things in mind. One was, these apartments look so small, when I was living in a big house and I was looking at empty shells. Two, I was hoping to find a compatible group of people with whom I would have meals three times a day. I was looking for reasonably good food. And I was looking for a competent but friendly staff.

I felt I should make the change. I was getting older, my husband and I are getting older, I have a big home. And so I thought I should make that change. And I saw this building going up and what I saw I liked. Opening day, I came and I fell in love with it. From the management all the way down, absolutely great.

The chapel I do appreciate having because I visited it the other day and they have a mass every last Friday of the month. I look forward to that and that's a nice feeling right there. And if I have nothing better to do, I walk up to the chapel and there's always someone there having a service. That's a nice feeling, too.

Best community I have ever been in. I get a lot of help.

It was harder for me to get around and i couldn't drive. And so my niece and I decided, it was time for me to find a place where I could have companionship. I just love getting up and coming to the restaurant and having something to eat and not having to worry about my food and the weather of getting out and doing the dishes.

A warm and friendly place. Everyone is caring and helpful. The facility is beautiful with many things for the resident to do.

Things are going well for my mother since she moved to this community. The staff is all friendly and the meals are great. We have not found anything that needs to be improved.
