Monarch Communities

We love this place! I can't think of anything negative to say about it. The staff are amazing, very loving and caring. It's a beautiful community, and from what I've heard from her the food is good! I really can't think of any way they could improve.

I think it's a good value, I think they are fantastic. There were a lot of things that I had in mind I knew my sister would like, the atmosphere is one of caring and concern. I looked at seven different places and one thing I looked for was location, it was not near a busy highway, the appearance, it has a friendly atmosphere, Mary in particular projected a very warm feeling. I can't imagine anything they could improve on. In a situation like this you can't give them what they really want, which is to be young and free again. The food is great and the food service, the maintenance, I can't imagine how they could improve. There is a range of times to eat and you are served with a choice of two different things each day along with things that are always available like a tuna salad sandwich or a pb&j. They are very caring.

The facility is very clean, and very neat. The staff are very attentive and kind, and the residents themselves are very nice. We couldn't be happier with it.

Very much impressed with all aspects. Very pleased with admissions and the head nurse. It's very clean and the programs they offer seem to be right in line and their individual attention was great! The only thing I can think of that could be improved, and I don't even want to say it is maybe a bigger parking area, and I think they are planning on that anyway.

Very professional. Staff are helpful. Facility is clean and well maintained. Highly recommend.

It's beautiful and has a good staff. When we were there they were in the process of updating everything. I'm sure once everything was complete it would be a very nice place because they were making some amazing upgrades to it. We had met with their director of community relations - I can't remember her name - she was awesome. It was like she couldn't do enough or couldn't care enough. I would recommend it.

My mother-in-law is being very well taken care of. The place is immaculate and well staffed. It's a good atmosphere when you walk in. They're genuinely nice and the food is really good. We sat and ate with her a few times. We couldn't ask for a nicer place for her, given the situation. Mom's going to have the path of her own since she has early onset Alzheimer's and things are changing as we go but it's nice to know she's taken care of. It's amazing the peace of mind that you get when you know that your loved one is being taken care of. I would recommend it to anybody - I would go there! The have a lot of engagement. She wasn't one to get out of her comfort zone or be very social but she's found herself a couple of friends and is constantly doing the crafts and things. It's a home run!

My aunt was starting to not be able to live alone and we felt it was time to look at assisted living. She really loved her apartment and the care she received at Brandywine at the Gables. It was truly her home! She didn't want to come to our house for Thanksgiving as she had made so many friends at Brandywine. When it came time for her to be cared for because of her dementia, Brandywine transitioned her and we felt she received wonderful care at this building!

Mom is doing well there. She's getting the highest care so she had to have an aid with her all the time. The care is good and she loves the bingo. I highly recommend it. It's been very easy for us to transition into. Mom is very happy there. It's very pretty, like living in a very luxury hotel and they have a little dog that lives there. My mother's always had a dog so she liked that. It doesn't feel sterile or seem institutionalized. The residents seemed to be very happy there. It's very clean, nothing smells, and the staff seems really engaged. My mom has a 2 bedroom, one shared bath room with roommate. My mom wanted a roommate so that worked out.

My mother has been at Brandywine for one week. It was difficult for her to give up her condo, but the staff has been very helpful and she seems happy. Thanks

We couldn't have been happier with Brandwine for the care they gave my father while he was there. The staff was so helpful not only for him ,but for the family. Within a weeks time, they knew us all by name. Even the chefs in the dining room came out personally to great us and talk about his likes and dislikes. We didn't see a staff member that wasn't cheerful and willing to help. If we had a question, it was answered within that day. The whole environment there was that of a 4 star hotel. Beautiful grounds and patios to sit and rock in the fresh air. Gorgeous interiors with a winding staircase and living room atmosphere. We know now that if we need a place for mom, that's the number one choice.

This has been a terrific place for my father who was tentative, scared and hesitant about assisted living. He really likes the place and now considers it home!! The other day he told my husband he was 'homesick' and he meant for Brandywine not Phoenix!! This is amazing to us. The staff are wonderful and really knew how to respond to him. He can be quite the handful!

Very nice but he needs a nursing home.

We 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.

It was great. It was a little bit fancier and really updated. The furnishings were really upscale and all. It was really roomy because it was out in the country. I would say that if Pennington is within reach I would say it's a fabulous place. It's right near princeton.

I had been looking and researching communities for about a year and this one just felt like it was the right choice. When I first started looking I didn't know what to look for but after visiting multiple communities and looking into them I learned about what we needed and what was best for my loved one. Brandywine was the community I chose after all the searching because it just felt right.

I didn't know where I was going but I just got in my car and went and Brandywine was the last on my list, I think I put my deposit down that day, I can't ask for more. The staff is wonderful, they go out of their way and they really take pride in their activities. With football season coming up the acitivty director sets up tailgating parties for the Giants games, plus there's a full sized kitchen in the common area so if we want to come in and cook as a family we can. It looks like a beautiful hotel inside, they have exercising everyday and additional therapy besides that, it's just fantastic. It's a little pricey but the value is there and plus the room that was available is a huge value but they guaranteed us that she could stay there through medicaid involvement at no extra cost after 2 years of being respoinsible for financial support. Other old people that are living at their homes are considering it because of my moms experience.

Brandywine Senior Living is an excellent community. Everything was just perfect here. It was very nice and the staff was excellent. The only reason we did not stay at Brandywine is because of the cost. It is a very expensive community and we would highly recommend it to anyone that can afford to stay there. Overall it's just an excellent community.

beautiful place, everyone was very helpful,helped me put into perspective what to look for at other assisted living facilities,lot of activities

The staff here is very responsive to any request you may have and there is always someone available if you need them. The community is very clean and well maintained. It is a very difficult decision to make and it take a lot of adjusting the staff has been very accommodating and has made the adjustment period a little easier. If you have an issue, bring it up to the staff and they are happy to work with you and see if it is a something they need to permanent change. We would recommend you ask lots of financial question and ensure you are understand of all charges so that you are not surprised when the bill arrives. Studios are about $5,000 and they recommend you bring as much from home and you want just to give it a home like feeling.
