Bertram House Swampscott review
I can't say it was a great experience, it was actually a sad experience but the Bertram house made it tolerable and based on the experience we did have we would recommend this community to other families.

It has been a positive experience for my Mom. The most positive thing is how aware the staff is of her, her comings and goings. Our interactions with others have been very limited because of COVID.

NEGLECT for CASH
This facility is not qualified to care for elderly dementia patients. Bertram House's ideal patient is a person who's family does not visit so they cannot complain about the filthy and neglect. They do not provide adequate staff and the staff they have is untrained. They should not be licensed to care dementia patients. The state of Massachusetts needs to investigate this place. We treat dogs better. DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONE TO BERTRAM HOUSE.

Pleased with care
I'm very pleased with the care my mother receives at Bertram House. I found the staff to be warm and caring. They have become helpers to meet her needs but also have taken time to get to know her and treat her as an individual.

Awful ,terrible, incompetent,unprofessional ,untrained aides.
My wife suffers from advanced dementia,initial tours did not signal the level of incompetence that I later experienced. The dementia floor is understaffed,the staff has not been properly trained for this level care. The staff is not caring or supportive. The nurse is clueless relative to medical needs and drug application. The md that they use ,dr messenger is also out of his league, they completely misdiagnosed ,mis prescribed, and failed to coordinate w my wife's MDMA at Lahey clinic,culminating in our being drummed out of Bertram house on a late February afternoon to go to Lynn union hospital w no notice ,preparation or support. The director an ex marine treated us as if we were at Paris island,. I cannot convey how horrible an experience we had at Bertram house swamps tot ,or how poorly trained and uncaring the staff is from the top to the bottom. My wife is now at Putnam farm Danvers and the contrast could not be more stark.i cannot speak highly enough of Putnam farm, nurses are on duty 24/7 ,they are highly trained and professional in this area, ALL the staff is highly trained and loving and NEVER use physical forse(in contrast to Bertram), the physical plant at Putnam is far superior to Bertram. Activities , food ,setting professionalism, medical care, outstanding,I recommend pun am house wo reservation. I wouldn't put my dog in Bertram house

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Massachusetts regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Massachusetts regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Bertram House Swampscott 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
