Outstanding facility and staff

We recently moved my mom into the BHS and I cannot say enough about the team there. From start to finish they were the most helpful and friendly to both my mom and me, and made the process as easy as possible during an otherwise hard time. I highly recommend this facility!

Use this one: I toured Bertram House last week for my mom, [name removed], who has dementia. The new Sales Director, [name removed], greeted me at the door and instantly made a difficult situation feel much easier. She is genuine and so sweet, and was thorough in explaining everything while making me feel right at home. I also met [name removed]and [name removed], who were warm and welcoming. The entire staff helped me feel calm and reassured. I will definitely be coming back. Bertram House is right here in my bea

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.

Would Recommend

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.

Nice interview with the community; however, the community doesn't accept Medicaid after private pay funds run out.
