Brandywine Living at Senior Suites

Vicki O

After researching and visiting other assisted living facilities in the area, we chose Brandywine for my Mom and I am very glad that we did. Mom is only 74 but needs help with all of the activities of daily living and she has been at Brandywine for nearly a year. The staff is exceptionally caring and does an excellent job of seeing to my Mom's needs. There are a variety of activities and celebrations for the residents. The facility itself is clean and well kept with a very good dining room. We are so glad we chose Brandywine!

Once too often, we had found my Grandmother unresponsive in her own regular apartment and decided it was time for a change of environment! After searching the internet for local places, we had accrued a very short list of facilities that had passed our initial requirements. Together with my Mother, we devised a laundry list of questions that we planned on asking at our visit. The staff was GREAT! Not only did they entertain our 70+ question test (within an hour of us emailing it to them), but they dedicated the time to make sure we knew everything necessary and still answered more emails afterwards!!! Since moving my Grandmother in, she seems to be very well taken care of. She no longer naps all day long, getting her days and nights confused. The activities keep her busy most of the time and we've even been invited to participate along with her. The staff is very friendly. The facility is clean and doesn't wreak of urine. The tenants are a joy to be around and seem pleased with their accommodations. I wish they would be able to work with the health insurance, but am pleased with everything else. I would definitely recommend it as a place to look into for anyone else facing this stage in life!!!

Right now, my mother is in Brandywine, which is near where my brother lives. It's lousy. There's a dining room and an upstairs room with two activities. That's about it for facilities. It's awful. It's soggy stuff on top of rice or pasta. They never make anything like a pork chop or chicken leg, just chunks of stuff. It's not what I would call healthy. They play bingo, even my mother who's 94, but all they do is play bingo and sit around. That's pretty much it. They have some things but what if you can't go out or if you're not mobile. I'm paying $7,000 a month, and they clean her little tiny room and don't provide a whole lot of help. There are nurses that dispense medication. They've been through two directors since we've been there. The person that's in charge of the health issues has twice not shown up when she made meetings with baloney excuses. The person that helps each resident out changes constantly so my mother has no idea what their names are. There's a new director, so I'm holding out that somebody is going to actually do something about the place.

Brandywine seemed very welcoming, and the people receive proper attention. They are very one-on-one. They know the people, and they know about them. You have a feeling that even though there are several aides perhaps that are checking in and helping, that they are aware of each of the needs of the patients. I was very impressed with their attentiveness. It is smaller than many and especially for my mother, it was important to us. She is not just here among many. It is a small place, but the facilities are good.

My friend is in Brandywine. It is warm and friendly. They have something every day. They have an activities coordinator. The have field trips in different places. They take rides in the country. They do a lot of stuff. The food is good. They have lunch and dinner, and they have special foods for special events. The staff visits her a couple of times a day and does her vitals. They are great. I know quite a few of them, and they are very approachable. She has a one-bedroom apartment, and she had her own things there. It is spacious, clean, and nice.

Catherine Quinn has been very, very helpful through the entire process. The whole staff is very helpful, and takes care of my mother very well! They keep us well informed, regarding Mom, and all activities. I feel safe having her there.

My mother is a resident at Brandywine. Our family is so thankful for the excellent care she receives. The nursing staff is so patient with her, especially as she is developing some forgetfulness. If ever a health issue arises, a nurse will call the family immediately to discuss any concerns we might have. The availability of "all day dining" allows her flexibility to have food options throughout the day, not just during mealtimes. Brandywine is always clean and bright. We are completely satisfied with every aspect of Mom's care.

My mother is a resident of the Reflections (memory care) unit at Brandywine Suites. The careworkers and nurses in Reflections are very hard working, caring people. My mother has been there for several years and whenever I have had an issue or question, it has been addressed to my satisfaction. In this very stressful world, knowing my mother is well taken care of is not something I need to worry about.

I like Brandywine very much. The rooms were very nice and spacious. They were also fairly new, which was nice. From what I saw, the staff were very nice. They have activities there. They have a little bar and a gourmet restaurant style dining room, which was nice. I noticed that the facility was clean and very well-kept. I wish I could afford to send Mom here.

Brandywine Assisted Living seemed very nice and caring. I spoke with some of the people that live there and they're very happy there. The accommodations are wonderful. The food is absolutely delicious. We've eaten there a couple of times. It's marvelous. My mom is in a 2-bedroom apartment. It could be a little bigger, but it's not major. There's a whole activity calendar of all kinds of activities. They have bingo, a beauty salon, and they're having a Valentine's party. I know they have an exercise class because my mom has been in that. Of all that I've seen, I think this is one of the nicest.

Brandywine was a nice facility. The staff was wonderful and I have nothing but good things to say about this place. They served us food and it was great.

What stood out to me the most at Brandywine was the friendliness of the staff. We had lunch there and the food was great. There were lots of activities going on and they residents seemed happy.

The place that my uncle had been was a rehabilitation hospital and whenever I'd go there I'd see a bunch of zombies. I don't experience that at all with Brandywine Assisted Living at Senior Suites, the residents there are happy. The place is very clean and has a lot of activities for the residents. The staff are friendly and accommodating.

During any visits I had to this facility it was apparent that the staff respects their residents and sees them in the human light rather than as a number. I have seen their care team go up and beyond the call of duty to see that needs were met.Also impressive was the activity and marketing team, who, on a day I visited and there was a closed door situation going on due to a virus outbreak......they were making individual stops to the residents to see what they could do to fill their day since out of room activities were not available. They scrambled to take care of those who were sick, and yet reach out to those affected only by being somewhat sequestered. This group works as a family unit and it seems to not matter what the titles are...they work together to bring a feeling of care to their residents.
