Monarch Communities

The search for assisted living is daunting but after a tour of Brandywine and meeting several staff members, I was convinced we found the right place for my father. They asked detailed questions to make sure he would be properly cared for with respect and dignity. The facility is very clean and well maintained. There are so many activities to keep all the residents entertained. I am so relieved to have my father in Brandywine and knowing that he will be well cared for by qualified, knowledgeable and friendly employees.

My mother is a resident at Brandywine in Litchfield, CT., an active woman who will turn ninety-nine on her next birthday. She is treated with kindness and respect by the staff and has made many friends and acquaintances there. She keeps herself busy with the activities they provide and has even taken up a few new interests and hobbies. They have exercise classes, music, movies, book club, cooking classes and much more. Her diet has improved, the food is plentiful, and we have heard lots of compliments about the meals, desserts and treats they provide. The facility is very clean and decorated with a luxurious atmosphere. The staff are wonderful, the executive director, wellness directors, kitchen staff, maintenance department, and all the others provide a hospitality that is tough to beat. They are caring, hands-on, friendly and devoted to their careers and the residents. I can't express my joy at having Mother is such a great facility.

My great grandmother lives there and she loves it. Smaller community, big rooms, good food, etc. All the staff are very professional and caring. She’s loves it and I love that she’s living there. Overall, 10/10 place.

This community is well taken care of. There is no urine door when I visit which is fairly common in other places. I do not have anything negative to say. Staff are attentive and residents are smiling in the halls. I am glad my family chose Brandywine!

This is a nice, clean community. It has a grand entrance when you walk in. There are a lot of activities scheduled and different trips that happen each week. The staff seem happy and engaged & talkative with the residents.

My mother and I went to Brandywine Living at Wall on a recomendation. The building was immaculately clean, the food was outstanding where we ate in the beautiful dining hall, and what impressed us most was how kind and courteous the staff was. They knew every resident by name and at the time we were there, there was an activity going on for the residents who looked liked they were enjoying themselves immensely; and I learned they have activities like that for the residents daily. I would reccomend this community to anyone looking for a home for a family member.

I chose Brandywine Living at Wall in NJ as a home for my dad when we lost my mom and it was getting difficult to care for him on our own. I call Brandywine a "home" because that is exactly what it has become for our entire family, including my dad. I have to admit I was anxious about the transition with my dad, but the staff here has demonstrated nothing but kindness and a genuine commitment to supporting my dad's specific needs. Their flexibility and willingness to collaborate with me have ensured that my dad has received the highest standard level of care possible. The food here is outstanding and the dining hall, including the entire building, is always immaculately clean. There are activities daily for the residents to partake, which is where my dad got to meet friends and socialize; my dad says when the weather is nice, his favorite thing to do is have the staff assist him in walking around the beautiful garden area outside. There isn't a better place to call home then Brandywine

My loved one is currently a resident at The Current Weymouth. Everything is great, except for the food. I would recommend this place to others, but not if they are into the food.

Bella Terra is a fantastic place!

From our first interaction all the way through my Mother-in-law being a resident for the past two months, The staff at Motif could not have been better. They have made everything so easy and smooth that we could not be happier with the decision.

My mom moved into the memory care portion of the facility shortly after it opened last summer, and we are thrilled with it. The decor looks more like a nice hotel than a senior living institutional facility. The staff are fantastic - friendly, caring, and professional across the board. They have varied activities every day, from right after breakfast until dinner time, which keeps my mom engaged and both socially and physically active. They also offer on-site beauty salon access and doctors who make rounds at the facility, and the food is surprisingly good.

I love the staff, the cleanliness, and the activities provided. The only thing my mom doesn't care for is the food.

The entire facility is clean, as soon as you walk in you can tell. They keep us informed about everything that is going on with my mom. She is loving the food, which is amazing coming from the fact that she used to make her own pasta and sauce! I would recommend this facility to anyone that asks! We made the right choice for her. She is extremely happy and says she feels like she's dreaming!

The reason we chose this facility was because of the cleanliness, the fact that memory care was just as nice as the assisted living side. You felt like everything was going to be. Like you were seen, that they were going to be almost an extension of you and everything was going to be ok and my mom would be cared for and also respected and allowed to be as independent as she could be. Very kind, thoughtful, very receptive to each residents needs and differences. I feel very lucky knowing my mom is safe and well taken care of there.

Staff are friendly, open to questions, attentive to needs of residents, responsive! I would absolutely recommend them to others looking!

My loved one is a resident here and I am thoroughly impressed with everything about The Fountains at RiverVue. There is a very positive vibe in the facility/atmosphere. It's a very active and social community. Nice building and grounds. 4 star food. Easy access. I would highly recommend The Fountains at RiverVue to others.

I am currently a resident at Bella Terra by Monarch and everything at this facility has been great for me so far. The move in process was very easy. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The housekeeping is spot on. Communication with the family is good. The meals are good. One suggestion for improvement that I would offer: they should have more activities for the male residents. I would recommend Bella Terra by Monarch to others.

My loved one is currently a resident at The Fountains at RiverVue in the Memory Care unit. I am really pleased with this facility and my loved one seems quite content. She is happier, cleaner and looks better. I was her caretaker and they are way better at it than me. The facility is not cheap, but it's worth it. All of her friends and her brother agree. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The staff, care services and meals are also great. I would recommend The Fountains at RiverVue to others.

My parents were previously residents at Brandywine Living at Upper Providence and this facility was overall good. It's a beautiful place. The food is good. The activities are great, they even have a hair salon. The facility was beautifully decorated for the fall and winter holidays. They did have staffing issues, but the majority of the staff were kind and friendly. When I stayed while my father was in his last few weeks (which was nice that they allowed that) they were not as attentive, as they knew I was taking care of changing him and feeding him. They would forget to bring a menu, so I couldn't order for mom or forgot to. But I had the ability to bring my own microwave soups and meals for her. They didn't really "check in," especially knowing that I had two of them and mom with dementia. I hated the monthly fire alarms which I know is a requirement, but they could have warned me about them at move in. It was a bit of chaos and the worst was they had one the very first night when I had just settled at home in bed after days of moving my father from one facility to another. The cost was a bit more than others, but understandable. Overall, I would recommend Brandywine Living at Upper Providence for sure.

When we toured Monarch Coopers Corner, it had not yet opened so a lot of the décor had not yet been in place. However, we got to see the final product just prior to Mom moving in. Even when virtually empty, we could tell that it was going to be right for us! We are glad that we waited for the facility to open and we were right! I spoke to Mom today and she said that everyone there is wonderful. I would recommend this facility to others.
