    I was scheduled to provide some free music entertainment for the residents. Until arriving I was…read moretreated like dirt. Very nasty employees. Requirements to provide free music included hand sanitizing, half a physical, and fifty health questions. I left, no free music for them. They obviously didn't want music. I don't recommend anyone ever even consider wasting your time entertaining for this dump. Don't waste your time.

    I have a relative living at this facility. Is it perfect? No, far from it. But we made 80+ phone…read morecalls and visited every facility that would take a Medicaid-pending resident and this was the best of the few available options. Let's face it: someone without money isn't going to waltz into a 5-star facility, and just has to hope for something adequate. At Northampton, care plan meetings happen every quarter and are informative, requests are followed up on, the Medicaid liaison is an absolute star, and we get a phone call if a fall, illness, or change in medication occurs. The front desk staff is friendly and excellent at screening visitors to keep them from spreading illnesses to residents (I can't believe someone complained about that!). When there was a covid outbreak, the facility moved ill patients to a covid wing to minimize spread and kept us informed very well. As for the resident experience: Overall the facility appears clean -- sometimes when we visit there is an odor if someone has had an accident, but that is the exception. The building is old and in need of some repairs, but the 2-people-per-room setup is better than another place I looked at that had 4-per-room. The dining/activity room is very nice and bright, and the staff decorates it for holidays. Meals are served on real plates in warmer containers and they are fine. There are activities offered, but of course not comparable to a more expensive facility; I wish there were more music and performances and pet therapy to engage the more passive residents. A lot of the hands-on care staff are terrific and very kind, and some could be friendlier and more responsive, but they all do a very difficult job and we are grateful. They know the residents and in my relative's case are understanding of their individual habits. Unless you can buy your way into somewhere great, living in a care facility in the U.S. is not going to be a picnic. If you are looking to place a loved one, you have to just do the best you can and choose from the available options (and hope Medicare/Medicaid don't get axed!).

"Tom's" review exactly expresses what I experienced at Tranquility. The cleanliness and care of the facility are excellent. My loved one was always clean too. But the patients were neglected in every other way. And the food in memory care was not good. Food seemed to be lower quality than the assisted living side. My mom declined rapidly. And the facility staff often made promises to the family that weren't kept. The physician, nursing director and facility director are colleagues who have worked together for a long time. (the big three) I felt they often played 'good cop, bad cop' with me and my family. I will give a big kudos to Nicole (? I think that was her name) , the director of the memory care unit. She genuinely cared about the residents and did the best she could with the resources that she had. However, her decision making authority was limited by the 'big three' in power. I will also give a kudos to the hairstylist and the laundry service. My loved one's clothes were always clean and fresh smelling. But, as 'Tom' stated - don't be fooled by the wonderful brochure and promises made on the tour. My mother's overall care was very poor.

The NP put…read moreon medication for hair-loss, and did not warn or advise me about the potential side effects( face/swelling+dark circles under eyes). I had a follow up Feb 2025, but missed the appointment due to the office NEVER sending me a reminder, but they made sure to charge me for a no show fee immediately. I was more upset about missing the appointment than about the late fee to be honest. I insisted they find me appointment because I had waited 3 months for this appointment and wasn't going to wait 3 more months. They booked me with another NP. When I saw the NP and explained what was happening, she seemed unconcerned and told me to just lower the dose. The side effects continued to get worse and worse but I didn't want to just stop taking the medication without consulting the medical provider 1st. I had a follow up end of June 2025. 2 weeks before the follow up, they called me to tell the NP will be on VACATION that day can't see anymore. And then, they tell me the next appointment available was end of August 2025. I was in disbelief, I had been struggling with extreme face swelling and fluid retention and wanted to wait 3 more months. I insisted they find me closer appointment. They did but I couldn't get leave for new date at all. I was stuck waiting till August 2025. The side effects were so bad, I couldn't even make it to August. I stopped taking the medication in July. When I finally saw the NP, I explained my issues, it was like talking to a wall. I've never felt more invisible in my life. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF, DO NOT VISIT THIS PLACE. I wish I had looked up the reviews on Yelp and not Google. I could've saved my beautiful face, now I'm stuck with fluid retention in my neck and face. Also, the medication NEVER helped with the hair shedding.

    Run away!!! Sad to say but your loved one is better off left on the street. My mother had to go…read morethere after having a stroke for rehab. She tested positive for covid before leaving the hospital and this was one of the only places taking covid patients. It was 10 of the longest days of her life until she was cleared of covid and we got her the hell out. The staff was so unprofessional. Arguing outside my mom's door about the patients. She had her nurse help turn the light on and someone cracked the door open and said it's just a little old lady and shut the door. Never checking on her. She depended on help as she was very weak from the stroke. So no help in time to make it to the bathroom or just for a glass of ice water. Food was cold by the time it was delivered as was the morning coffee. They ran out of milk and coffee for the whole facility and depends underwear in a facility like this. There was not one day my sister and I didn't have to ask what the hell is going on. Never got an answer to that because not one person knew what the hell was going on. The 2 person rooms are way too small. No privacy what so ever. Sleep is important for your health but next to impossible there. This facility needs to be reevaluated by whatever medical group oversees places like this because this place is an absolute shit show so RUN do not stop here even to ask for directions, although the lady's at the checkin desk were always nice. There's your 1 star.

The women that cleaned my room was so friendly and always asked if she could do something for me before she left my room. The Nurses were so kind and responsive. Haylie went out of her way and I felt relieved that she knew what I was asking and spoke to my Doctor for me. The Nursing Assistants were so good and met all my needs. They were so helpful when I needed help. Therapy was excellent. Emily from OT worked hard to get me home with a exercise program. Loved all my Physical Therapist's. The food - the menu is available. They have 2 choices for the day and if you do not want either choices, you can check for sandwiches, fruit plate or a few other choices. (I loved their Grilled Cheeses.) The food was actually good and I was very satisfied. Social Work was responsive and helped me to get home with Services in place. Admissions made the process easy. I cannot say anything really negative about this facility. I recommend to all!

Knowledgeable. My friend is elderly and grumpy, but that never phased anyone. They all treated him kindly and listened to his long on details tellings. In every way, it was exceptional. I would have liked to have seen a page on their website about Parking. The garage is closed for repairs. Luckily we were there early enough to park right out front.

She was…read moredischarged yesterday evening without shoes, without a coat, without her wallet or identification, and without any notification to her family. She was released directly onto the street with no assistance or transportation. My mother was later found this morning (November 20, 2025) at her own front doorstep, having spent approximately 15 hours outside overnight. She was sleeping on her front porch with nothing but a thin blanket to keep her warm. The temperatures fell below 40 degrees last night. This is not only unacceptable--it is dangerous, negligent, and inhumane. When I contacted the hospital this morning, staff refused to provide any information regarding her discharge, her condition, or the doctor's evaluation. I have filed a formal complaint, yet no one from the hospital has followed up with me. This level of disregard for a vulnerable elderly patient's safety raises serious concerns about the conduct of both the attending physician and the hospital staff. We will be contacting the appropriate authorities to pursue this matter further and ensure accountability.
