My brother in law lived at Brandywine for over two years. I can't say enough about the care he received here! The stafff is VERY caring and attentive... always on top of his medications... always greeting him (and our) family on a first name basis... always available and ready to assist in any way possible. The kitchen always adhered to his very specific dietary needs (he had unusual food allergies, diabetes and colitis) AND the food was delicious! The facility SUPER clean. The furnishings are new, clean and comfortable. There were plenty of activities that he enjoyed. And because it's so well run, the other residents were always happy and a pleasure to interact with. He had lived in three other facilities before Brandywine and none could come close to the level of care and quality of life offered here. I would highly recommend this facilty without hesitation!

Staff is great...Nora and Abby did a great job acclimating my mom. Sherry can be difficult at times but has a good heart. Wellness center keeps on top of appts. The ladies Bibi and Megan assisted me transporting my mom with a warm patient smile.
Also the food I thought was awesome. It is presented well and alot of flavor. Plus many items are available all day. Plenty of choices.
I was also impressed with recreation...always something to do. I was there with my mom visiting from florida 5 days. I observed it all!

We moved my mother and her aide from independent living into the Brandywine Savoy 2 months ago. We moved her quickly because I was going in for surgery and I needed to make sure she would adjust and be happy. They have wonderful aides there but I was relieved that we could take her aides with her. They are part of our family. We checked out many assisted living places. Just want to mention, unlike the Bristol, they also allow personal aides to sit with your parent if need be. Abby and the entire staff have been awesome. Abby made the transition easy and relaxing for us.
The wellness center and dining facility have helped my mother with all her new needs such as food thickener added to her food and drink. Brandywine is very organized with laundry, housekeeping, and maintenance. I’m very impressed with their wellness center! They have entertainment and many activities throughout the day. Her one bedroom apartment has nice sized living room and bathroom. Bottom line, I highly recommend the Brandywine Savoy for your parents. They treat everyone lovingly and have the knowledge and experience to support your parent as well as their family.

Brandywine Living at The Savoy was perfect. We found the people very gentle, nice, caring, and spent a lot of time with us. Everything was clean and comfortable. It was a very good and accessible location. It seemed convenient for us. The room was wide, very clean, and looked very comfortable. There werw many activities inside and when we were there, there were games for the people gathered in the main room. There was a nice big living room and mini rooms for the daytime activities.

My mom was a resident the last year of her life. The care was extraordinary. The staff has continual smiles on their faces and always willing to help. The medical care is attentive, prompt and any issues immediately communicated to me. When my mom was sick the staff always looked in on her and called me with any new recommendations. My mom made a few friends at the home and enjoyed their company. Her unit was always clean. I trusted all the staff in this facility and when I was away, I knew my mom was in good hands.

There aren't enough aides to provide the assistance promised. There are too many different aides dealing with one's parent so that consistency is problematic. The activities are repetitive so that many individuals don't participate. Cleanliness is usually good.

Having never visited an Assisted Living facility before, I had no idea what to expect. That said, 2 years later, I have been very impressed by the care, overall cleanliness, food, but most importantly the staff. They are engaged, encouraging, interacting and seem to be genuinely happy to be working there. They try to get the residents involved in their many activities which include exercise and art classes, music, movies, card and other games bingo, entertainment and special events and day trips. Also, their chocolate chip cookies are great. I highly recommend Brandywine

Brandy Wine in Little Neck could not be a better fit for my mother, it has taken time but with the support and encouragement of the staff the transition has taken place.
My mother is finally accepting and has found her own world.
Thank God for Janet, Abbey, Andrea, Ziomara, Z and all at Brandy Wine that has touched on a daily basis our lives, needs and love. We all learn everyday.
This Assisted Living has been the grace from God for me and my family. The staff is the extension of my family.

Brandywine Living at The Savoy was very good and had a lot of activities. The food was very good, and the dining area was very clean and very nice. The residents seemed happy. The living quarters were very nice.

My sister is at Brandywine Assisted Living. I am not as impressed as I was with the other facility I visited. My sister's main problems with them are that the food is terrible and the aides are not trained in taking care of anybody that needs extra care. She doesn't have private aides to take care of her because their aides are not trained. They need more aides and well-trained aides to take care of the people.

I looked at several facilities when we decided that my mom could no longer live alone. We chose Brandywine at the Savoy because it felt familiar. Many of the residents raised their families in that or similar neighborhoods so my mom had a lot in common with. the residents.
She has been living there for five months and she is thriving.
Every time I visit my mom, I realize how blessed we are that we chose the Brandywine Savoy for my mom to live. She is thriving so much and a lot of it is due to the love and care she is getting there.
It is a special place with a special staff that works there----and I go to sleep each night at peace knowing that my mom is doing so well and that she is well cared for by her Savoy family.
My mom is more active than she has been in years and eats healthy balanced meals with lovely people at her table, exercises daily, plays bingo, makes jewelry, goes on outings, gets her hair done in the building every week and even sings kereoke.
I would recommend taking a look at this facility. It is not fancy but it is filled with a staff that loves the residents.

It wasn't as upscale, but it was clean, and my mother liked the studio room. I didn't like the dining room setup. It looked like they just set up tables in a room, but she liked it. At Brandywine, they have activities as well, but I don't think they are extensive. It's situated right off the expressway, so it would be a little difficult for someone like my mother who is very mobile and can really get around without a walker, just a little cane, to get across the thoroughfare because of too many crossing intersections.

This assisted living facility is definitely a step above. Part of my business services is to help seniors move into assisted living homes. My initial contact was to move a senior with COPD into a Brandywine room. There was a lot of planning and physical work that went into this move and no matter how many questions or requests I had, one of the staff members was always there with the answer. You cannot walk the halls in Brandywine without a staff member smiling at you or saying hello or offering their help. Without exception they are amazing, kind and helpful. The facility is beautiful with bright open hallways, a piano room, a café, and an activities area where the staff members are upbeat and keep the residents engaged –with lots of laughter and fun. There are seating areas outside and a beautiful garden area with tables. The medical staff is attentive and gentle with the residents. Brandywine would be the perfect choice for anyone.

We cannot brag enough about Brandywine and their wonderful staff.. Mom was a very active and independent person until she became blind. Sitting at home with an Aide we watched her slowly become a lonely and depressed woman. Today mom is happy and having a wonderful experience at Brandywine. She is up and out of her room for breakfast and does not return until way after dinner. Even being blind has not stopped her from joining in with activities to keep her busy. Mom is always telling everyone how nice the staff is to her and all the other seniors. She is now a much happier person with much to do and has kind people to pamper her and make her feel special. She is sorry she did not move in sooner!

We brought my aunt to Brandywine Assisted Living. Basically I knew about the facility, but I think Caring.com gave us a little bit more information about it and all the other ones in the area. Brandywine is the most convenient to the family. They all seemed to be very good, but I think this one is going to work out best for my aunt. It is very clean, bright, and friendly. Everyone smiles. Everyone is approachable and looks happy. They have just about everything in terms of activities. They have exercise classes, music, art classes, daytrips to different things like shopping or shows, and games. They have a number of different activities on a daily basis. My aunt has a single room that is spacious. It has a good sized bathroom. It has a bed, two dressers, two closets, and a self-contained air-conditioning and heating unit. It also has a kitchenette area and cabinets. At this facility, food is fine. In fact, we had a meal there before we settled for the place with my aunt, and the food was excellent. It is like restaurant quality. They have a menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Of course, if you want something off the menu, you can ask, something like a hotdog, and you can get that.

Everybody was very nice at Brandywine. I spoke to people that live there as well as the staff. The facility was clean. They had 24/7 nursing available and the price was better than other places. My mother has her own kitchen area, and her own private bath and bedroom. The room is not big, but it's enough for my mother. The food is fine and there are a lot choices. I had my mother's table place changed several times because she's often sitting by herself. She doesn't know who else she's going there, so she always go to the same table. They don't change her. They're too busy. They have all kinds of activities, but my mother doesn't participate in them. They have different word games, card games, they always have a social in the afternoon, they have church services, and they have exercise classes.

It actually surpassed my expectations. They offered a lot of extra activities during the day. The facility was very clean and well laid out. There seemed to be very attentive employees. They offer special days where they bring in outside people such as photographers, party organizers, singers, pianists, dancers, etc. to entertain the residents. There is both a more clinical side to the facility as well as a section offering independent living spaces. It was definitely high up on my list of good nursing homes. The area is also good.

The place seemed pretty good over all. It was clean, but there was an odor I could not place. I thought it could have used some updating, and the staff seemed nice enough

This assisted living facility is one of a kind. Most of the residents at this facility can do for themselves, some residents have to stay in bed most of the time. This facility has a outdoor park outback that is used for the residents when having cookouts and small gatherings for they're family members. The flowers are planted beautiful and the landscaping is clean to be in New York. When walking in i saw a staff member helping a resident off the floor. The way the staff member handled the situation was very professional. Assisting living facilities like this one make it easier to even consider putting a family member in one.

Several months back my dad found out that he had stage 5 dementia and needed 24/7 care. We had lots of choices and saw lots of facilities. Very confusing process….
My dad is a World War II Veteran, him and his six brothers served at the same time in WWII, they call my dad Aggie for short. My dad loves life and loves talking about his parents, his “6” brothers and “2” sisters and his immediate family, wife Teresa son and granddaughter- Isabella”. His granddaughter lights up his life whenever she’s near.
Mom found the Brandywine by accident, she made the appointment and that’s when she met Rona Siaca director of community relations at the Savoy. She “Rona “had us at hello. A great facility, great people. They care for you like family and in some cases better than family. Her teams is outstanding. They go above and beyond their daily responsibilities. Yes I’m jaded since my dad gets exceptional care and Rona and her team treat mom and dad like family, a five star experience.
The Savoy is friendly and inviting. Their people is their best quality. From what we’ve seen everyone is very caring, your treated like a human being. The food is excellent. The rooms are spacious and there is lots of things to do.
THANK YOU RONA for taking care of my mom and dad’s daily needs. They mean everything to me and you have treated them like family and for that I thank you. God Bless you and your entire team!!!!!

My uncle has moved into Brandywine Living at The Savoy. It is very nice. It is more than the budget that I was looking for, but they have the level of care, the staff, and the food. Everything is perfect. The living atmosphere is very nice, clean, newly renovated, and bright. Everything is very motivating. The food is very good. The staff members are extremely polite. The wellness director really takes care of the residents, especially the ones in the memory care unit.
If I can think of some of the assisted living facilities that are next to a nursing home, but give you a homey environment, Brandywine will definitely be one of them. They have enhanced service and they have specialized service. They have a base service as well, which is senior living, which is very nice. My experience so far with them from day 1 until now has been very positive. It is a very pricey place for anybody with memory care needs. They have a reasonable number of activities. Overall, it is a very positive experience, which is exactly why I have moved my uncle there. They're very sociable, very nice, polite, and always willing to help. Their overall culture is very nice, polite and helpful.
