Monarch Communities

Brandywine is a lovely place! It looks like a boutique hotel and is runned professionally. All the staff from the director to housekeepers are kind, professional and make you feel very welcomed and taken care of. Any concerns are addressed immediately, the residents are happy and treated with respect and importance!

Everyone at the community is extremely nice and friendly. The facility is clean and well cared for by the staff. It feels like you are in a 4 star hotel. The staff is always seeking to finish interesting activities for the residents. There is a genuine concern for each client. The focus and mission is to make sure all are cared for and receive all the services and support that they need. It is a place where everyone feels like a beloved member of the family.

My mother lived in the assisted living unit and then the reflections floor. The staff at Brandywine was sensitive, caring, respectful and honest. I am grateful for the attention and support the staff provided. [Name removed] was particularly loving and caring. [Name removed] is an extraordinary nurse.

My mother has been a resident of Brandywine's memory care unit for three years. I just can't say enough about this facility. She's treated wonderfully by everyone, especially her caregiver, [name removed]. Also, [name removed] are employees in her unit and they are upbeat and cheerful. All of the employees seem to know all of the residents' names, and that's pretty impressive. I'm so happy to have found this great facility, and it's only two miles from where she lived before she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. There are so many activities scheduled, she is never bored. I did visit and research other places before deciding on Brandywine, and I'm very happy I made the choice I did. She is also happy there, and I love seeing her happy when I visit. Family activities are scheduled regularly, and the dining room facility is basically a restaurant with a menu...families are welcome to join residents for a meal, and we have done that often. Do yourself a favor and visit Brandywine if you have the need for assisted living.

My Mother found a whole new family at Brandywine almost three years ago. And this is because the people that choose to work there treat 1) the job like a vocation, and, 2) the residents like their own parents. Building and keeping a team like this is an art. An art that, lucky for my Mom, Brandywine has down to a science. I am fortunate enough to live close and visit often. But if I were far away, I would sleep just fine knowing that the care and love my Mom receives would not be one bit less (it might even go up). I wish this was true for all the Assisted living facilities out there but in general it is not.

My mother and father moved to Brandywine Senior Living at Fenwick Island in March of 2015. The warm, friendly, and caring staff is so amazing with all the residents. It took no time for me not to be worried about my parents well-being in their new surroundings. It was quickly apparent that they were well taken care of and had many activities each day. My parents spent time playing Bingo, doing crafts, listening to live music and just interacting with the staff and other residents. I love Brandywine Senior Living and the facility has put to rest any fear I had relative to my parent's care. I can only say if you have a elderly relative who could use an assisted living facility, please check out Brandywine Senior Living at Fenwick Island. Beautiful facility, beautiful people, wonderful environment. I give them 5 *****, more if I could.

Where do I start with Brandywine at Toms River? I have to start with that this place makes you feel like a part of the family! The staff know my name and who I am here to see as soon as I walk in the door. I have visited other family members in different Assisted Livings and toured a lot of different Assisted Livings and nothing has come close to Brandywine! The building is immaculate and feels like more of a hotel/home rather than a hospital type setting. My grandmother loves her apartment, the food, and activities and well just about everything, I could go on for days. She loves her personal care aids and nurses that take extra special care of her and I can see that they love her back. I never have to worry about my grandma which gives me the greatest feeling of relief! The nurses always reach out to me if there is any issues with my grandma or even if she is just having a bad day and think she could use a visitor. And visitors are welcome 24 hours a day which is extra important for me since I work long days. All in all, If you move your loved one here I promise you will not regret it! Thank you Brandywine for all you do!!! Also I must add, to anyone truly invested in finding their loved one a new home please do not take any negative reviews that have been posted into consideration. Do your own research and see Brandywine for yourself. These negative reviews do no not reflect what Brandywine represents, the other positive ones I have read I can relate with very well. Brandywine is a 5 star facility and it is truly a shame to see these negative reviews bring down their rating

Beautiful community! Can't beat the amenities and caring staff!

Like a symphony orchestra Brandywine is made up of sections. To make beautiful music there must be a perfect director and that is what we have in Mariola. A competent, intelligent, personable and caring leader who whom we care. She leads a great team here made up of many sections which makes living here so enjoyable! Just like an orchestra that creates beautiful music.

Excellent facility Personable and attentive staff Excellent care Excellent food Super cleanly Amazing and fun activities Lots of engagement and types too!

Words fail me to describe how content I am here. Hotel type building, fine dining, large menu choices, three sittings per day, spotlessly clean, spacious rooms, weekly linen changes, staff very attentive to resident, friendly residents, good companionship, regular entertainment, weekly trips to stores, museums, church etc, Staff drivers to doctors. These are benefits to living at Brandywine. As a resident I could not be happier.

Brandywine in Litchfield is truly an amazing place. It's the people who work there and the people who live there that make it so wonderful. The staff (administration, aides, nursing, events coordinator, dining staff; all staff!) treat residents like their family. It has to be one of the best in the country. My mother is extremely happy there. I would recommend it to anyone.

I loved coming here to spend time with my grandmother. I watched movies with her and we ate snacks on the porch and sometimes I ate lunch with her. This is a very nice place and I recommend it to everybody. I am 9.

[Name removed] was lovely, gave an excellent tour and is clearly loved by the residents. The facility is clean and warm.

I never fill these out but we are overwhelmed with this community. My mother is happy and involved. The food is great as well as the activities! The nurses are so attentive to my mom! Cannot recommend more highly!

Great facility. My mom is very happy there.

I just had to write to say "god bless" Brandywine Living a the Gables. It is truly a special place! My mother has been there about a month, and could not be happier! The facility is beautiful and well laid-out. All of the staff members are outstanding. The residents are extremely well cared for, and treated with kindness, respect, and compassion. And my mother loves the amenities and activities. I must say - I am a little jealous!

Brandywine worked with my brother and I to settle in mom without too much stress for her or the family . the food was good and services fun and Mom interacted ,,,,,, Her time at Brandywine Linwood was happy for her and I thank them for that ,,,,,

We really enjoyed visiting Bella Terra. We think it would be the perfect place for our aunt. We are working on setting up a time for our aunt to visit.

Dear [name removed]: I am an old friend of one of your current residents. In June my wife and I drove down from our home in New Hampshire to say "Goodbye" to my dear friend of 70 years. I found your facility to be everything I would expect from a high-end assisted care, right down to the player piano in the lobby. Your grounds, interior and welcoming staff made us feel at home. The main reason for this Thank You letter is to commend [name removed], one of your staff on duty the day we came. She was delightful, bringing us up in the elevator to our friend's room on the third floor in memory care. After connecting us with our friend, she was gracious enough to provide these weary travelers with a hot cup of coffee and some cookies, (which was very much appreciated) while we visited. [Name removed] said he really likes her and they often banter back and forth in a positive way. Your [name removed] is a gem. Our friend is happy with his surroundings and realizes his time on earth is limited. He accepts that fact, and seems grateful for being in your care. Thank you for taking care of our good friend in his greatest time of need. And, a special thanks to [name removed] for her wonderful spirit and hospitality. Sincerely, [Name removed]
