Monarch Communities

I feel so blessed that I found Brandywine at Mountain Ridge for my cousin [name removed]. A friend had recommended it to me, and from the first time that I visited, I knew it was the right place for [name removed]. Brandywine is a very special place. The administration has developed a strong, caring culture and that every staff member embodies. Everyone that works there from the administrators, nurses and aides to the housekeepers, maintenance and the dining staff are very knowledgeable, loving and caring. [name removed] lived at Brandywine for four years and from the day she arrived, she began to look, feel and act younger with every day. After living isolated at home by herself for many years, she finally had a chance to meet some good friends and enjoy their companionship. [name removed] loved the musical, art and crafting activities and above all, loved the food, especially the desserts. I am forever grateful to everyone at Brandywine who took such wonderful care of [name removed]. And a special thank you to [name removed], [name removed] and [name removed], thank you for all of the help and guidance you gave to me.

Love the care we receive. It has probably extended our lives. My wife and I both live here and love it.

Since day one, Brandywine has taken excellent care of both my mom and her sister. When my mom passed, Brandywine employees showed me how they also treat the families with love and kindness. They are like my family and always keep me informed and involved in my Aunt's daily care. God bless them all.

My mom is a resident at Brandall Estates at Brandywine in Linwood, New Jersey for almost one year. She enjoys herself everyday with fun filled activities from morning till early evening. Whether it be an outing at ShopRite, Boscovs, watching a movie, making a root beer float, sitting at the pond watching the Coy, her life could not be any more fulfilled. There is something for everyone. The staff is amazing and accommodating to everyone’s needs and always willing to help and answer any questions. Everyone is dedicated and sincere. There is no better place for a senior to make this their happy home. Thank you everyone for making my mom so happy and comfortable. Sincerely, [name removed]

I need to place my husband in an assisted living facility as a respite stay as I went away on business. He recently just had a knee replacement and I could not leave him alone, he needed around-the-clock care. The administrative staff went above and beyond to make sure all of my needs were answered and that my husband would be in the best hands he came in for a 4-week respite and I must say he had absolutely zero complaints, as a younger man I was a little nervous please and come in and assisted living even if it was just for a short period of stay and he absolutely had a blast, from the wide range of activities to the excellent cooking done by the chefs in the building he will definitely be returning there again for his next surgery recuperation they also mentioned to me that they have a home care which I may be needing to utilize. All the staff there were very attentive of my husband's needs in regards to his recent knee surgery I would recommend this place to anyone.

After living on her own in her senior apartment for 15 years, my 92-year old stepmom moved to Brandywine Middlebrook in [date removed]. While she reluctantly agreed to "try it out", she soon realized that it was the right decision for her. At Middlebrook, she gets the assistance and support she needs with physical activities, food and medication management from the caring and understanding people on staff there. She now tells everyone, "This is where I need to be!"

I have visited this community many times for events and groups that they host. The group I am apart of is greatly appreciative for all that Brandywine does for us. They are a wonderful addition to the Phoenixville area community, and is always willing to give back and help the outside community! I highly recommend visiting these wonderful people.

My mother has been a resident in Brandywine for two months. She consistently states how friendly and helpful the staff are, how nice the other residents are and how much she enjoys the activities. The only draw back is not having outdoor grounds for the residents to independently enjoy. I agree with her assessment each and every time I visit,

We couldn't be happier with our decision to have our dad move into Brandywine Senior Living. The staff is attentive and caring to each individual. The residents speak highly of the staff as well and they're a great endorsement. The food is excellent and the dining staff is very professional. The activities are wonderful and the residents enjoy attending them. They paid special attention in getting our dad settled in. I highly recommend Brandywin Senior Living to anyone who wants quality care for a friend or family member.

This beautiful community of caring, loving people has helped us so much. My aunt is cared for, happy, secure and most important, her health has so improved. I feel so fortunate that [name removed] at the [location removed] has given us peace of mind.

Making the decision to put my mother into the care of others was extremely difficult, however, after spending a great deal of time and several visits to Brandywine I knew this was the right place for her. My mother has been here almost 3 1/2 years and is thriving. The care she receives from the nursing staff is wonderful and I cannot say enough about [name removed] and [name removed]. They know I live many states away, therefore I do not get to see my mother as often as I would like. They will send me photos on occasion of my mom having a great time and those 2 always seem to know when I need those the most. It is truly a family there and we are blessed to have them in our lives, especially my mother's life.

Mom really enjoys eating in the beautiful dining room. She has lovely tables-mates. The overall facility is a cut above! My husband and I are so impressed by the dedicated staff. And, the programs are amazing! Much better than other places we visited and experimented in Texas. Very upbeat and exciting, I took a painting class with my mom! This is truly a beautiful place to be.

Love everybody and everything about this facility

After touring about 5 assisted living communities this is the one I chose. The service, the appearance, the people; all great.

This beautiful community of caring, loving people has helped us so much. My aunt is cared for, happy, secure and most important, her health has so improved. I feel so fortunate that Brandywine at the Gables has given us peace of mind.

My mother is currently living at Brandywine in Mahwah. It is a great facility!! All the workers treat the residents with dignity and respect. The residents are very well cared for by nurses and doctors. The food is delicious!! Personal attention is given to all the residents. It gives me peace of mind that she is being taken care of when I’m not there. Definitely recommend the facility!!

We cannot say enough about Brandywine Senior Living at Howell. From the first visit the staff was warm, friendly and genuine. We felt an immediate connection with the staff and a sense of this was the perfect living arrangement. The people who work here are amazing, you get the feeling you are visiting them at home and they are welcoming you as family. It is a relief to know our aunt is safe and cared for by people who go above and beyond and truly care about her happiness. [names removed]

Both 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 [name removed]. I hope I get to live out my Golden years in a place JUST like this.

Excellent care for my loved one. Wonderful staff, lots of activities, restaurant quality meals. Highly recommend!

My mother fell on her 96th birthday in [date removed] 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 [date removed] 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!
