My stay at Brandywine
reviewed on: 03/18/2017 by F.K.As a former resident of Brandywine, I had an “inside” opportunity to experience my stay first hand. I was living in the White Mountains of NH. After my husband’s death my Children wanted me to move closer to them. After visiting several places they decided on Brandywine in Howell NJ. This was supposed to be a short respite stay which turned into almost four months. From the moment I and my cat Foxxy arrived I was greeting warmly by the staff who brought me to my new apartment. After receiving my pendent it was time for dinner. I chose the late hour and was seated at a table with two other residents whom I got to know and care for very much. I made many friends there. I love the options you have at each meal. The cooks really tried to please the residents. I also enjoyed many of the activities offered each day. Every staff member I came in contact with was friendly and helpful. Including, house cleaning, aides, dining room staff, wellness, administration, and maintenance crew. Brandywine is a very nurturing, safe, peaceful place to live. At this point my Doctor, children and I feel I am able to live in an Independent Living facility. Should my needs change in the future I would gladly return to Brandywine in Howell.
Brandywine , an exceptional place
reviewed on: 05/02/2018 by EGBrandywine, Howell has been a wonderful experience for my Mother in Law this past year of residence there. Every effort is made to have a new resident feel comfortable. For example placing people of similar interests at the same dining table. Encouraging your loved one to participate in activities, which there are many. The live entertainment is fabulous. The Staff is exceptional, very caring and attentive. Alzheimer Support Meetings 1X month are very helpful and informative. Lisa, Colleen, Michelle, Maggie, Amy , Jennifer, Alvio have all been just wonderful whenever I have needed them. I am very happy with the care my Mother in Law is receiving. She is treated with dignity and respect. The most important thing to me is that she seems content, happy and secure.
Wonderful, wonderful place! Could not be happier!
reviewed on: 12/26/2018 by Patti MDuring this holiday season, I feel it's important to thank the folks who have contributed to our lives. I placed my father at the Howell location in July 2018, and words cannot begin to express the gratitude I feel toward each team member whenever I walk into the facility. Pop had a difficult time adjusting when he first got there (as I'm sure most do). The seeming loss of independence and his recognition that he needed care was hard for him to handle, as he is a proud man who always did whatever needed to be done to provide for his family. Colleen G was absolutely wonderful during the admission process. Jen S has been looking out for and taking excellent care of my Dad. Amy is just an absolute delight. My father feels loved and safe there. Each and every single interaction I've had with any of the staff members has been excellent. I am a single mother with two kids. I have a full time job that requires frequent travel, and a chronic illness that can knock me out of commission for a few days on occasion. Taking care of my father for the past 18 years has been difficult. I would like you to know that since Dad has been at Brandywine, I feel that a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I cannot thank you enough. Lisa has built such an incredible culture there and has such a great staff and I simply wanted to offer my thanks.
It was very expensive and they didn't really have any activities going on here.

Great Staff and Wellness Center
reviewed on: 03/26/2021 by Harry RMy Mom is a long time resident of Brandywine, over 10 years and we could not have made a better choice. We selected Brandywine for the location, on-site wellness center, the staff and the numerous activities offered. Fast forward to today and the many of the staff members have become like our family and personally I've enjoyed making friends with so many of the residents. The wellness staff has always been so helpful and accomodating, it is really beyond my original expectations. The Directors have always been very approachable, first [name removed] and now [name removed] have always been wonderful and responsible to any questions. And I could not omit [name removed] who provides great events for the residents. To me Brandywine at Howell has been a perfect choice and remains a perfect choice after so many years. Thank you to the great staff at Brandywine for taking such great care of my Mom.
