Nursing Home Communities in Lenox, MA

"I like that Mount Greylock Extended Care Facility helped my dad. They listened when I had a problem, and they took care of it right then. They were really good. The physical appearance was okay. It was good. My dad could eat in the dining hall if he chose to. There were additional a la carte items that were available 24 hours a day. I was happy with the care. My overall experience with them was very, very good. I would tell people that I would recommend this place if they had to go for rehab. The staff was great. Some of them went above and beyond, and some just went in to talk to my dad, just to chat. They were very good at helping him. However, it was a little dark in the hallway. It almost felt like a hospital. It could have more lighting. My dad was not into activities, but they had a lot of activities. It was covered by insurance, so I would say it was good for the price."

"My 96-year-old mother-in-law, who has always been like a mother to me, is currently at Craneville. She entered the nursing home for rehabilitation after a fall, regained enough strength in therapy to return home, with some help, but returned to Craneville after some months. She is still a resident there. We visit our mom fairly often, and take meals with her there on holidays. We have always been welcomed, and offered any kind of assistance we could need. There is a culture of welcome, and reverence for life at Craneville.. In the couple of years that our mom has been a resident, we have never witnessed a staff person treat a resident disrespectfully. There is also a respect for individuality and achievement there. Mom, at age 95 was given serious therapy to help her get back home where she wanted to be. Now, at age 96, she is President of the Resident's Council, and helps plan and carry out activities, and helps advocate for residents who need help. In short, at Craneville, nobody is written off. Mom lost her husband, my father-in-law, quite suddenly a few weeks ago. The weather was terribly cold, and we didn't see how she could come out to a service, or to see the family without becoming ill. The Adminisration and staff at Craneville went above and beyond to help us cater a reception right in the Dining Room so that Mom could receive her family and friends in honor of her husband and our Dad without risking her health. What can I say after that? I do have some experience with a number of other facilities. Grandville is simply the best."

"My friend is staying at Fairview Commons Nursing and Rehabilitation Center and so far, the staff has been cooperative and have kept me informed because, with COVID, you're not able to see the whole facility. I haven't seen the room itself, we just go to a visiting room. He thinks the food is good, so that's encouraging and I know they have movies and things like that. The facility looks clean also."

"This is a rather clean and well run home. The exterior facade is rather dull yet I found the inside is quite lovely. The employees are a pleasant bunch and are quite attentive. Whilst they work at a brisk pace they seem quite happy as they busy about with daily chores. The infirmed are noticeably content in their surroundings. "

"I would absolutely recommend The Grand at Barnwell Nursing Home. My husband was there for over five weeks, in physical therapy recovery. The staff were welcoming and friendly. They have an advanced rehabilitation program which helped my husband to get motivated, mobile and walk again! My husband’s stay on the 3rd floor was a pleasant surprise. The staff were responsive, helpful, very funny and so patient with my husband. A shout out to the aides on the 3rd floor, especially to Abraham and Adrian! They are so kind and very funny. They made a difficult time so much easier with kindness and a keen sense of humor; both took the time to make sure that my husband was comfortable and comforted, particularly when he was having bad days. They helped with showers, made certain he had a proper diet, and would often check in on him to see what he needed. And no matter how many times my husband needed to be more comfortable in bed with pillows or supports (he asked for help a lot!), they always responded promptly with compassion and kindness. I didn’t know what to expect and I was pleasantly surprised. The entire staff was so helpful and friendly. They greeted us with a hello and a friendly smile. They made a stressful time so much easier; they explained to me what was happening with my husband’s care, what to expect and what needed to be done. Barnwell was wonderful to my husband myself and my family. I am forever grateful for their kind care and compassion."

"My dad is currently in a nursing home now at Pine Haven Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. The staff is extremely dedicated, patient, and caring. They've worked very well with me and my family to make sure my dad was comfortable. The outside is dated, but the inside has been remodeled within the last few years. It's clean, friendly, and it's small. It's based on three different wings, so he primarily just stays on one wing, which is good for him since he's a memory patient. I know that they have a memory wing that doesn't have great reviews, but he's on the rehab wing that has excellent reviews. They do different arts and crafts. They have music come in, church services, and a coffee cart daily. They do like shopping experiences and stuff, but he's not able to go. Their food is very good. It is a nursing home, so it's very expensive. But on his wing, I feel like he's been very well taken care of."

"Sweet Brook was wonderful and made my great-grandfather's last days as peaceful as possible. The staff was lovely and friendly and always made my family and I comfortable. The building itself was clean, bright, and open, unlike some nursing homes which feel like hospitals. "

"We chose Ghent Assisted Living for my friend because it was closest to where she lived so her friends could visit. We've also known about this assisted living for many years and it looked like a decent place so that's why we said she would go there. She moved in last month and she's in assisted living. She seems to be doing well and I think her medical care has improved since she went there. All of her doctors are saying that she's doing better. She's not completely happy, of course, because she wants to be home but she understands that's not possible right now. For the most part, they're taking good care of her. The staff seems to be nice, my friend says they are very nice to her. I've had dealings with them too because I go and visit sometimes and they all seem to be helpful. I don't have any complaints there. She says that the meals are good although sometimes they're not that great. They have activities but she doesn't participate in them, unfortunately. They have an activity department and they do things but I don't think she's interested in that. The place could do some updating as it's a little old-looking. It's hard to tell because it's winter but they seem to have some patios and stuff outside. Of course, nobody can go out there right now."

"The staff at williamstown Commons truly care. They are professional, kind, and compassionate. I am there daily and I see the interactions between staff and residents. They listen to the seniors and make every effort to ensure that they are taken care of and content. "

"My cousin stayed at Geer Nursing and Rehabilitation for three weeks. She loved the staff. She thought they were wonderful. They took very good care of her, and they were very kind to her. They were very gentle people. I saw her every day, and I witnessed the same thing; they were really great. She had a private room and was very happy with that. It was very clean and very well-maintained, so we had no complaints. "

"I went to The FASNY Firemen's Home. It's more of a skilled nursing facility and my aunt is not ready for that yet and that's a lot more expensive. It was originally started for retired firemen. It was a very good experience. The problem with that place is there's a waiting list. It's like 9-12 months to get in. I like the location, the care, it's small, and the staff. I didn't check out the food, but I've known other people that have sent their loved ones there and they loved it as well. The staff was very friendly and very informative. The building was very nice. It's been remodeled, so it's nice and clean. The outdoor was nice. It's in a very nice setting and The Firemen's Museum is attached to it, so a lot of people visit there. They're very accommodating."

"Care for my husband’s stay for rehab after hospitalization was outstanding. The staff from start to finish was attentive, professional and efficient but always with kindness and caring. Medical follow up was great. Facilities and his room were lovely. Covid protocols made things tough because no visitors but staff was great c"
