Tranquility Manor Estates sits at 1950 N Hemmer Rd in Palmer, right between E Palmer Wasilla Hwy and E Palmer Moose Dr, and it's got the kind of calm feeling you notice right away, with views of the Mat-Su Valley and a homey, quieter spot on the edge of town that's not so far from stores or parks, so you can still run an errand or take a drive without hassle. This place has 17 licensed beds and gives care in a way that feels personal, with private bedrooms for each resident instead of sharing, and two lounges where folks can visit or relax. Staff offer help with daily things like bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, doing laundry, cooking, cleaning, and taking medicine, which takes a weight off for a lot of people. There's a special focus on residents with memory needs like Alzheimer's or other dementias, with extra support to help prevent wandering and keep everyone safe, day or night, since they've got 24/7 supervision and assistance when needed, and the building's kept clean and secure.
The staff help with transfers too, so if someone needs to move from bed to chair or to the dining room, they'll pitch in, and they're in touch with doctors, hospitals, or family to keep care steady and smooth. They've got a full-time Activities Director who keeps the days moving along, with activities and games every day of the week, and that means people aren't left with nothing to do. The lounges are a nice touch, and the place still keeps a laid-back family feeling, with staff getting to know people, not just treating everyone the same, and for some folks that makes a difference, having real conversations instead of feeling like a number.
Licensed by the State of Alaska, Tranquility Manor Estates runs as both an Assisted Living Home and a skilled nursing facility, offering long-term care, memory support, and other nursing services for older adults who need regular help. They train their caregivers and CNAs, with continuing education so the care stays up-to-date, and employment comes with some benefits like retirement programs and insurance, which tends to help them keep their staff. The facility likes to work with hospitals, care managers, and families to keep everyone on the same page. People using Mat-Su Senior Services or Redi-rides can get there pretty easily too, since the place is on a main road. The building offers a peaceful, comfortable environment, and the private rooms and lounges make it easy for families to visit or for residents to find some quiet time or have fun. Amenities fit what most need in a nursing home, nothing flashy, just what works, with games, activities, and chances for independent choices and social time. The place seems clean and organized, offering a supportive community for those needing help, especially if memory care or daily nursing support matters.
