Brandywine Living at Haddonfield

Bill Duffy

Our mother, age 95, has been a resident here for the past two years and we could not be more pleased. The facility, itself, is beautiful and well maintained and has the ambiance and feel of a boutique hotel. The rooms are spacious with good amounts of natural light. Food is great and there are plenty of activities and special events that keep the residents engaged and entertained. Most importantly, the leadership and staff are excellent. They are attentive, empathetic and caring. They smile and they laugh and take great pride in what they do. We would highly recommend Brandywine, Haddonfield.

We’ve been in the process of transitioning our mom into a senior care facility - it’s been an emotional journey so far, filled with peaks and valleys. We recently chose Brandywine Living in Haddonfield, New Jersey for her senior care living needs. The facility is in a quiet residential area, down a side-street just outside quaint Haddonfield. It’s absolutely beautiful, with the look and feel of a New England bed and breakfast. Residents can often be found sitting in the cozy lobby, engaged in cheerful dialogue – and there’s an intimate little dining room (with desert bar) just off to the side of the entrance. During our first visit, I noticed that everyone seemed very relaxed and genuinely happy – so much so, I initially thought the place was too good to be true. That was – until I met the staff. I just can’t say enough about them. The transition for Mom has been very challenging (i.e. very proud and previously independent), but Kim, Marian, Jessica, Diana and others have been with us every step of the way – just like extended family. We are absolutely convinced that we couldn’t have chosen a better place, and it’s extremely comforting to know that Mom’s physical and mental well-being are in good hands.

My mother has been a resident at Brandywine in Haddonfield for the past few months. This facility is phenomenol. I always felt that the climate at any facility is represented by the administrators. I cannot say enough about Jackie and Kim. From the first day my mother entered this facility, they have been extremely helpful and caring. This positive climate then trickles down to all of the staff. All of my interactions have been wonderful. Marion, Maryanne, and all of the nursing staff are so competent. Angie and the other aides are also warm and caring. My mom has enjoyed the activities including exercising and bingo! Recently, the facility honored nurses during Nurses week. My mother was provided with a certificate recognizing her previous work as a nurse and she was delighted! She has repeatedly stated how well she is treated and how terrific each member of the staff is. And, how can I forget, John, the chauffeur! He makes my Mom laugh and is very attentive. I highly recommend this facility. The care provided is exceptional and what a relief it is to know that mom is safe.

My 94 year old mother entered the Memory Care floor of Brandywine in Haddonfield 3 weeks ago and we are thrilled with the facility, her rooms and the care she is getting. She had been living in an over 55 community for 20 years and was content. But managing the aides from afar had become too much for her daughters. Also, she had become too sedentary. We cannot believe how well she has acclimated here. She goes to many meals, attends some activities and seems content. The wonderful staff helped us with all of our questions from help with the move (replicating her home as much as possible) to checking in on her all the time and even sending a photo of her first visit to get her hair done. Brandywine Living at Haddonfield is first class and I (and my sisters) feel lucky that mom is here. Her rooms are bright and cheery. She is safe and near my sisters and their families. She can take an elevator (with someone with her) to any activities on the Assisted Living floor as well as activities on her floor. There are activities every day! She says the food is great and likes to talk about the desserts! A special place for our mother and we are grateful.

Brandywine is a much smaller but new community. It was very home-like. The place was lovely and the physical environment was beautiful; however, it's expensive. It was quite a bit more than the other two places I saw. It didn't seem like the residents were as engaged as the other communities. The staff members were very nice. The dining area was very strange as there were only four tables in the dining area. The rooms were lovely. They're a little small but very nice.

Brandywine Living at Haddonfield is beautiful and smaller which was better for my dad. The type of care that they get is really good because it's smaller. Everybody knows his name, and the staff is great. My dad's room is a nice size and has a kitchenette, microwave, sink, refrigerator and freezer, and the bathroom is huge with bars all around. It's all handicap-accessible, which is really good. He has room for a full-sized bed and has a section with his reclining chair and TV. It's expensive but worth it. I would recommend it.

I have everything good to say about Brandywine. The staff was wonderful and very caring. It was a very personal, top-notch place, like living in a five-star hotel. The rooms were not too big. They do not have two bedrooms, but they had studio and one-bedroom units. Some residents that spoke to me said they had two studios made into one larger room. The common dining area was very nice. The food was very good. They had a menu, so it was like eating in a small restaurant. The atmosphere was very good and very friendly. I guess they could improve on the activities.

Brandywine is brand new. It's still under construction and not quite finished. The staff is well paid and very professional. Their food is gourmet. We are moving in around the end of April or the beginning of May. That is when the new building will be finished. The rooms are spacious; we looked at a one bedroom suite.

I first went to the Haddonfield Home when I learned my aunt was going into a retirement home. No one else in my family has ever been in a retirement home before so I was quite unsure what to expect. The Haddonfield Home is a very professional retirement home. The house (which was clearly one of the first of its kind), sits in Haddonfield, NJ. A nice suburb of Philadelphia. The staff is very professional, and suprisingly very warm and close with their patients. The decor of the Haddonfield Home looks slightly outdated from the outside, but the inside is truly beautiful. I was very pleased to see my aunt go into such a beautiful home. I fully trust her in the hands of the staff. From the number of visits that I have made to the Haddonfield Home, the food is quite delightful. I always enjoy going to see my aunt because she seems happy and comfortable with her situation. The workers and owners of the home have a wonderful operation going on over there and I highly reccomend!!

I have spent a countless amount of time with my great aunt at Haddonfield Home Assisted Living and have always had a very positive experience. Located in the beautiful small town of Collingswood, the housing is very elegant, well-kept, and always up to date. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Collingswood Manor offers a wide variety of events and activities to its residents. Some of the weekly events were yoga on Wednesdays, book club on Thursdays, and line dancing on Fridays. Collingswood Manor is always lively! My great aunt absolutely enjoys the community and couldn't have possibly found better.
