My Dad
reviewed on: 07/25/2016 by John DMy father spent the last three years of his life living at Brandywine Assisted Living in Howell, N.J. When he first arrived he was recovering from a four -month stay in the hospital and an acute care rehab facility. He was confined to a wheel chair and was suffering from dementia. He was initially placed in the Reflections unit on the third floor. He received wonderful care from the nurses and aides and within three months he was walking with a walker and was dementia free. He was then transferred to the first floor with the general population. My father’s gregarious and outgoing personality returned and this is where he thrived. He made many new friends among the residents and staff. The nurses and aides were all very attentive and patient with all of his needs. He received physical and occupational therapy and he became more self-sufficient. He enjoyed the company of his new friends in the dining hall and he eagerly anticipated interacting with the high school and college students who were waiting tables. I truly believe that my father’s life was extended because of the care and life style that Brandywine gave to him. We could not have asked for a happier or more positive environment for Dad’s final years. I would highly recommend Brandywine in Howell to all of my friends and relatives. Thank you again to everyone from the cheerful women at the front desk, the maintenance staff, the administrators and all the volunteers for the quality care that you provide.
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.
Great Place
reviewed on: 09/20/2013 by Rose LeaWe are so happy we chose this place. The compassion and help we have received was wonderful. If any one needs an assisted living for their loved ones, please go to this one. Our loved one is only in this place one month and likes it. She says she is not lonely anymore and is taken care of. What more can we ask for. Thank you for your recommendation.
What a blessing - amazing care.
reviewed on: 05/06/2018 by Jean OBoth of my folks lived here and we could not feel more blessed to have found this perfect place for them. Not only were they amazingly well cared for, I can say that they were loved. Although my Mom only lived a short time after moving in, my Dad was there for years. He lived to tell his stories and every staff member let him think they were hearing it for the first time (more like 100th .. giggles). Always clean, bright, and cheerful. My parents were ALWAYS clean and well cared for. There were always an abundance of great activities - love you Amy. I hope I get to live out my Golden years in a place JUST like this.
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.
