July 18, 2016I am so glad that your Mother has adjusted well! Our Housekeeping and Maintenance Departments work really hard to keep our community clean and shining. We have a new Food Service Director who strives for success with every plate, and meets with our Residents monthly to get their input. Thanks for the lovely review!
My father was at Tranquillity the last five months of his life. He was fairly independent except for a permanent feeding tube which required special attention. The staff at Tranquillity were wonderful! They met my father's needs. They were easy to work with, always answering any questions or concerns I had about my father, and they were always kind and friendly. It is a happy place with a family atmosphere, filled with special people. I highly recommend Tranquillity to anyone looking for assisted living!

July 18, 2016We loved your Dad-he was such a gentleman! We also really miss seeing you and hope you come back to visit and maybe volunteer. We truly love each and every one of our Residents, and strive to make their golden years as happy and comfortable as possible. We also love our Families and work hard to keep you free of stress and worry about your loved one. Thank you for sharing your Father with us.
Tranquility is a wonderful place! You walk in the lobby and it reminds you of a hotel. Everyone is so nice and friendly and the admin. staff greets you with a hug. My Mom arrived by ambulance in July 2015 and we thought this was the beginning of the end. She suffers from dementia and Parkinson's disease and she has done a complete turn-around. She is very pleasant and smiles all the time! Even though it was a huge adjustment for her, the staff has been very patient and helped her through the transition. She receives her meds on time and her meals in the Dining Hall as this was not the case when she was living alone. My Mom, too is a life-long smoker and they have accommodated this as well! Knowing that my Mom is in good hands and is well taken of is a huge relief!

January 21, 2016Suzanne, thank you so much for this review. Your Mother really is a success story! We all will never forget the day she arrived. I also remember that in the beginning it took her at least 30 minutes to propel her wheelchair 15 feet. Now she walks with a walker, goes outside to smoke with her bff and can bend down to pick things up! She is amazing and we are so lucky to have her. She is a gift, as are you, your brother and all your family members!
I had to move both of my parents at the same time from Pennsylvania to Maryland. Both were diagnosed with dementia. My mother being more severe. The first day there my mother did not respond well and was not able to stay. However, the staff assisted me in finding an appropriate facility for her to receive the type of care she needed immediately. Within three weeks, my mother was able to return to Tranquility and is loving her new "home". During her three weeks away the staff of Tranquility paid special attention to my father so that he felt at home and kept him busy so he wouldn't miss my mother so much. They are both very happy there. They love all of the staff workers and especially love their meals. My mother has responded well to their great environment and exceptional care. The staff is very patient and kind to my parents and it is a blessing that I have found a place where I know they are safe and cared for everyday.

January 20, 2016Hi Deb-Thank you so much for this review. We love having your parents-they are a charming and friendly couple and let me tell you, their table is the place to be for meals! I love how they keep their door open and are so welcoming to anyone who walks by. I am happy that we are giving them the exceptional care they deserve. Stop by to see Terry or me so we can make sure that your experience is always a 5.0 one!
My wife and I both looked very hard to find an assisted living facility for my mother suffering from Alzeheimers disease. After an exhaustive online search, visiting numerous facilities, TRANQUILITY was at the very top of our list. All others fellow well below our expectations. My mother is a diehard life long smoker. One of our concerns was that many facilities do not accept smokers. TRANQUILITY does with minimal restrictions. Beyond that the facility is well maintained, clean, bright, airy, and spaceous. Tranquility offers a variety of different sized rooms and amenities. There is a room to fit everyone's needs. The staff from the very top to the bottom is knowledgable, eager to assist, and go the extra mile to be helpful for residents and families. Tranquility maintains more than adequate staff to perform all their functions in minimal time and go out of their way to be of assistance. Ask a question and they have the answers readily at hand. They have an excellent medical staff, nursing services, food services, physical therapy, in house repairs, all manner of extra curricular services from day trip for sight seeing and shopping. There is even a book mobile that services Tranquility on a regular basis. In closing, I cannot think of a better place for my mother to live among a caring and dedicated staff. In closing.... If and when my time comes TRANQUILITY is the place I want my wife and I to live out our remaining days.

September 23, 2015We love your Step-Father, and he is indeed happy here. Tranquillity is a safe place where our Residents can enjoy life worry free. The staff are friendly to other staff and Residents, and our Residents socialize, smile and laugh with each other.
They have just been very helpful; from getting my mother into the place, and with helping me to feel comfortable with the place, and to supporting her with a difficult transition. The caregivers have just been excellent with her.

September 1, 2015Thank you so much for this review. The transition from Independent Living to Assisted Living is never an easy one in the beginning-for Family Members or Residents. All of us at Tranquillity are always accessible and are here to support you and your loved one every step of the way.
The facility was very nice. I really liked how friendly everyone was. The showers are really roomy. Unfortunately, I don't think my mom can afford this facility.

I would be happy to sit down with you again and assist you with finding the most affordable care options for your Mother. Feel free to call me at [removed]
At Tranquillity at Fredericktowne they are doing a nice job. Some things aren't perfect. One is their promise to provide green salads or fresh fruit at all meals. I made clear that that was a primary criterion in selecting this facility, but it isn't consistently provided. I would like to see this improve. Management staff are extremely helpful and friendly here. Overall it's been an extremely positive experience.

August 19, 2015Thank you for this review, and for alerting us about this issue. This will be rectified immediately. Our new Food Service Director is hard at work making sure our Residents have the foods they enjoy. I am thrilled that your experience has been an extremely positive one overall!
My parents have been in tranquility for a few weeks now. I have not been but my sister moved them in. The main feedback I'm Getting is that the employees are really sweet there. Very kind and work hard to see that my parents feel welcomed and comfortable. That seems to be paramount. My parents like the hot breakfast but overall the food is average and somewhat institutional style. My sister said my Mom's room smelled and she wished they'd address it but overall the personal touch of the aids is above average.

August 19, 2015Mary, thank you for this review. I am glad that your parents are happy-they are lovely! Our caregivers take great pride in taking great care of our Residents. We have a new Food Service Director and he is working hard to improve our food. I welcome you for a visit and then you will be able to see for yourself how great our housekeeping is!
This is an outstanding facility particularly for clients who have memory issues. It is an excellent quality of care for cost. This is a great place that engages the elderly that still want a positive quality of life. They have a wide variety of activities. They have games, live music, social events, bible discussions, and more. The location of the facility is great for anyone in the Frederick area.

September 1, 2015Thank you so much for your input! Tranquillity is a lively place, no doubt. We want our Residents to enjoy life without worrying about their memory loss. There is indeed always something going on here-our activities calendar is a veritable buffet with offerings to please everyone. Also our Residents have control over the calendar-when they want an activitiy that isn't on the calendar all they have to do is ask!
Over 4 years ago my brother and I had to find an assisted living community for our mom. We did our homework and toured all of the communities in Frederick. Finally, we decided on Tranquillity. From the beginning we knew that Tranquillity was family, not only did my mom feel that way but all of the family do. Four years ago my mother was told she had 1 year at best, she is still going strong and we all believe that it is because she is surrounded by an extended family 24 hours a day. She is happier now than we have ever seen her. She loves the activities and outings. You can tell that Tranquillity is well managed, everyone gives care which is amazing to see. When I am visiting Bridget who is marketing and even Terri, the Director makes it a point to visit with us. It is truly remarkable to see how they care for my mom and all of the other residents. At Christmas time I get a personalized Christmas card from Terri, she takes time from her busy schedule to write out Christmas cards. Lucia, The Actvities Director will take pictures of mom enjoying the activities so that I can share them with family. Charlie, the Maintenance Director is fabulous. My mother must drive him crazy with asking him to hang pictures and then she wants them in another spot. He is so nice to her and even though he's busy he makes her feel that she is the most important. The nursing staff is so well organized. I can call Vicki and talk about my mom and she knows whats going on. Tracy and Nicole are part of nursing and they are so helpful and always smiling. My mom really enjoys the food and its nice to know that when she wants aomething else, Andrew the chef will always accomodate. I can write for hours about why Tranquillity is the perfect place and the best way that I could describe is FAMILY!

April 13, 2015Thank you for this wonderful review! All of us are so happy you feel like you and your Mother are family! Our entire Tranquillity staff strive to give excellent care and to treat your Loved Ones like they are part of our family, because they ARE! I am very pleased that you find our staff accessible and friendly. Our doors are always open!
Tranquillity staff have been nothing but professional, caring & attentive to my moms needs & required care since she moved there in 2010. Mom was diagnosed w/Alzheimer's in 2006 & as the disease progresses their contract professionals (MD &RN) trained in geriatrics/Alzheimer's/dementia visit her regularly. Any updates to her care must go thru the POA for approval which is respected. Tranquillity can not make changes on their own. Mom participates and enjoys the activities that are planned. You can visit your loved one anytime you want. I highly recommend Tranquillity at Fredericktowne.

April 7, 2015Thank you so much for your recommendation. We pride ourselves on being caring, professional and attentive to all of our Residents' needs. Everyone at Tranquillity deserves great care, including our Residents' family members. We welcome your visits anytime, and encourage you to "pop in"!
Tranquillity has been nothing but gracious and accommodating the four plus years my mother has been in their facility. My mother is a well-taken care of 90 year old resident of the memory care unit. My sister and I visit her regularly all different times of the day. Our hope is that the rest of her life is spent with the same professional staff she has always encountered. I would recommend Tranquillity 100%.

April 9, 2015Thank you for this review. Our goal is to provide top-notch care for all of our Residents, whether Memory Care or Assisted Living. As you have experienced, we have an open door policy with all of our families, and are honored to be part of your lives and the life of your loved one.
Tranquility pushes for your loved ones to be put on antipsychotics, and a variety of drugs to keep elderly live ins tranquilized inorder to make their jobs easier and therefore require less staff on their payroll. If you have questions or concerns about your family member don't expect to get cooperation from the head staff or executive staff. I have had to call the Ombudsman in for help and the State of Maryland. They were holding off giving me my mothers records. I had to chase them down to get them and still have not gotten everything. Do not send a loved one to any place that wants to drug your parent when it is not medically needed.

April 7, 2015We at Tranquility advocate for our residents as if they were are own family members. We work closely with our team of physicians to determine the best possible treatments for our residents, and whenever possible, avoid the use of medications to treat behaviors. Less than 2% of our residents are prescribed any kind of antipsychotic medications, and these have been prescribed by a team of psychiatric professionals. We are happy to share records and discuss concerns with any family member who has been granted power of attorney, or for whom we have written permission from the exisiting POA.
My Mom has been interested in their activities and has been doing a lot with them, so, she is very happy. The director of sales has been very kind and caring with my mom. What we noticed was that everyone was very happy. The place is beautiful and they've just been so kind and caring. My mom is very happy and we are very happy and pleased. Everyone is so kind and friendly.

April 7, 2015We are all very proud of Tranquility. Thank you for your wonderful comments.
The facility is nice, however their memory care unit is not yet certified by the state and they were not very good at giving concrete information as to how the memory care unit will run (staff, activities, etc.). Also, the residents currently in the memory care wing as very old & there is not really anyone for my father to interact with.
