Tranquil Living sits in Palmerton, Pennsylvania at 112 Northcreek Dr, right in the 18071 zip code, and has a small, cozy setting with room for only 8 seniors, so everyone gets personal attention in a homelike place where the staff know what they're doing and try to make people feel welcome, and you get help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, transfers, or even spoon feeding if that's needed. The facility offers assisted living and board and care home options under Pennsylvania license #224900 and keeps a close eye on residents with 24-hour awake staff and supervision, plus nurses available around-the-clock for health needs, monthly check-ups by a registered nurse, and case management.
Residents can choose from private or semi-private rooms, studios, or one-bedroom apartments that come furnished and have basic cable, internet, phone, and utilities included, and the community keeps up both the individual apartments and the garden, courtyard, and grounds, providing a peaceful place outdoors or a comfy spot in the reading room, TV room, or arts and crafts studio. It's closed weekends but is open from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and staff handle things like meals with dietary accommodations, medication management and reminders, transportation to and from doctor's visits, housekeeping, trash, laundry, and personal care such as help with putting on clothes or bathing.
There's a secure keyless entry for safety, 24-hour security, and regular health checks including special attention for Parkinson's disease, physical therapy, speech and occupational therapy, plus a therapy section and massage therapy available on-site. Activities happen every day, ranging from games, crafts, and regular movie nights in the theatre room to special entertainment for holidays and birthdays, and there's a communal dining room and a private dining area for more personal meals, with snacks and chef-prepared food available for different diets like diabetes or other restrictions. Residents can go outside to the greenhouse or garden, and have access to a salon and barbershop, fitness section and daily fitness programs, computers, board games, a spacious library, concierge service, and scheduled transportation.
Tranquil Living pays attention to social connection, community events, and personal dignity, offering respite care too for short-term stays, and helps new residents move in with coordination services so transitions can be easier. Cleanliness is kept up with regular housekeeping, linen service, and all apartments are maintained for comfort. The environment is quiet and peaceful with a focus on safety, respect, and helping residents keep their independence as much as possible. Tranquil Living has a reputation for friendliness, simple comforts, and dedicated care, with a high rating but only a couple of reviews so far, and life tends to move at a calm pace with a lot of support for both health and social needs in a small, close-knit group.
