Traditions of Hanover receives 2013 Excellence Award from SeniorAdvisor.com

Traditions of Hanover Independent Living is thrilled to announce the community was presented with a SeniorAdvisor Excellence Award for receiving consistently high ratings from residents and their families in 2013. Only 10 communities in Pennsylvania were honored, and Traditions of Hanover is proud to be one of them.

SeniorAdvisor.com is a consumer reviews web site established by A Place for Mom (APFM), the nation’s largest senior living referral service, as a way for seniors and their families to share feedback on senior living communities and services. The inaugural SeniorAdvisor Excellence Award identifies the top senior living communities who have received an overall average rating of at least 4.5 stars on the site. The award winners were recognized for having the best customer ratings and reviews out of more than 100,000 senior care providers currently on SeniorAdvisor.com.

“Traditions of Hanover is proud that our residents and families voted to recognize us as an outstanding Independent Senior Living Community in the Lehigh Valley,” said Jennifer Murphy, marketing director. “This award showcases our experience, dedication and commitment to our residents. We look forward to continuing to be the model of excellence for Senior Living. Thank you to all of the families of residents who trust us in caring for their loved ones and thank you for making us one of the top rated!”

Winners of the Excellence Award are located all over the country and represent the top tier of independent living, assisted living, and Alzheimer’s care communities on the SeniorAdvisor.com website. This exclusive designation places the winners in the top one percent of senior living communities nationwide according to consumers.

“I called A Place for Mom and they put me in touch with a number of communities, but Traditions of Hanover really stood out to me and my family. It was more than just a home for mom, it was like she was part of the family,” said David Wersinger, son of Marge Wersinger. “Mom has been at Traditions since October last year and she likes all the activities she can be part of, but doesn’t feel pressured to do them. As children, we feel comfortable having her there with caregivers to look out for her and make sure she’s getting the proper nutrition and taking her medications. The staff at Traditions is very accommodating and they always extend a little more to give her the help she needs.”
