Happiness at Last!!
reviewed on: 05/03/2018 by Daughter of a ResidentMy mother fell on her 96th birthday in March of 2017 and required full time care in her home. She had 5 different full time care givers in a 3 month period and was miserable and so was the rest of our family. We wanted to keep her in her home but she no longer had the same quality of life and was bored and frustrated and unhappy to share her home. Finally, she mentioned that maybe an assisted living would be better. Within 24 hours I researched places near where I live and Brandywine in Howell impressed me the most. It had a warm feel to it with a very friendly staff and warm and welcoming residents. It was and is spotless. My mom moved in June of 2017 and her biggest regret is not having moved there sooner. She LOVES it! She just turned 97 and is far more alert than she was a year ago. There are always activities to keep the residents happy, stimulated and busy. The nursing staff is exceptional as are all the staff members. The fact that my mom can live out her life there gives her and all of our family a huge sense of peace. Brandywine has been a blessing to all of us!
Caring staff and a wonderful place to spend elder years
reviewed on: 10/01/2015 by CGarganoI moved my Mom here after being in another facility for a month that she was so depressed she would cry every day. I cannot be happier that I found the Brandywine, the facility is clean, the staff is all wonderful, caring and always informing me of anything going on, family oriented. You can see how happy the residents are just walking around there and they are always doing things and daily events, I cannot reach my Mom until end of the day at 9 because she is out of her apartment in the morning and involved all day long. She has made some nice friends with other residents and I have a great relationship with the staff, especially Brittany who will send me pics of my Mom involved in activity and my 4 year old daughter loves to visit Grandma to see "all her new friends" ... if you truly care for your loved one this is the place for them. You will never have to worry about their well being because the whole staff takes such good care of the residents and it truly shows. Well done and thank you for all you do !
Mom's Remarkable Progress at Brandywine-Howell
reviewed on: 04/27/2015 by TBollaroPrior to my mother moving into Brandywine @ Howell, she was in another facility. They had her in therapy, and, still in a wheelchair. During the 6-8 weeks there, she was hospitalized three times. Since moving into Brandywine, my mothers progress has been remarkable. Within three days, she was getting around with a walker, going to the dining room, and, attending programs. When her cardiologist examined her a week ago, he was pleased with her progress, and, with no hospital visits in the 6 weeks she has been there. My mom has made friends, and, regularly attends bingo and other programs. The food is unbelievable. The staff is friendly, and, cannot be more helpful. To the Brandywine-Howell staff, I would like to thank you all for taking such good care of my mother, and, for the friendship you have shown my family. God bless you all.
facility was very nice - biggest prob...

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.
