Rockridge Retirement Community

Rockridge, nestled in a serene woodland just outside the culturally vibrant Northampton, MA, is a not-for-profit retirement community revered for its bespoke Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Support services. Since its inception in 1970, Rockridge has earned the trust and high regard of many, offering seniors a way to age with happiness, comfort, grace, and dignity.

Violette’s Crossing, named in honor of the founding administrator’s wife, caters to seniors 62 and older with beautiful Independent Living apartments. This neighborhood exemplifies Rockridge’s commitment to providing a supportive and enriching environment for its residents.

The Meadows is distinguished as a Level IV Rest Home, offering a unique setting for seniors who require limited assistance. It embodies Rockridge’s mission to ensure a happy, healthy, independent, and secure lifestyle, unparalleled by any other community.

The creation of Rockridge was a serendipitous event, stemming from the simultaneous recognition of the need for senior care in western Massachusetts by four different groups in two distinct regions. Their unanimous decision that the New England Deaconess Association was the destined organization to address this need marked the beginning of Rockridge. This community has evolved from a compassionate idea into a treasured haven, dedicated to ensuring seniors enjoy a life filled with all that matters.
