Monarch Communities

Visited. Was impressed with the place. Will visit the Alzheimer's unit next time. Price is right.

The facility was beautiful and amenties were great. Distance would be a small issue especially in bad weather. Reflections unit very small just seemed congested.

very nice

Visited Independent Living. Very nice apartment. Facility is also beautiful, clean. Walking trail outside with gardens. Residents allowed to set up their own garden. A lot more freedom. Own kitchen to cook in.

I liked Brandywine. It was warm and welcoming and director was so helpful. This is also a possibility.

very nice, active community, nicely decorated, many small and large gathering areas

Visited this community. It was very nice and well maintained. Staffed well and knowledgeable people too.

I did this tour. Seems like a good option

Beautiful facility. Would be a good fit for Mom. Like the director.

Nice room. off living room. formal. game room has slots!

Liked the size of the 1 BR unit, proximity to Lancaster Ave. for shopping hosp. etc, liked the feel of the place and the fact that they are able to provide medical and social activities. 30% Jewish, 30% Catholic 30% everything else. residents inclusive of independent (driving, doing all adl's, taking own meds), need assitance w/ meds and full nsg assistance can be done in own apt./unit without going to nursing home.

definitely in the running would like to bring my sister to see

lovely visit.Director very helpful. attendants helpful to residents.

Knowledgeable management team. Caring staff excellent food fun activities family feel

My parent has not been a resident for very long at Spring Meadows Summit but so far, the staff has been friendly and attentive to all request made of them. Over all the residence is clean but it is time to replace the hall carpets since it is looking rather worn out. Housekeeping is responsive to any concerns and keeps the public areas of the facility very clean. So far there are many activities, indoors as well as field trips to keep the seniors busy and the activity coordinator tries to encourage everyone to participate in an activity. It may be expensive to live there but it certainly gives one peace of mind that their loved one is residing in a safe and friendly environment and where assistance is just a call button away.

Very caring team lead by top management every day. Food is delicious. Entire staff offers great care to all ! We are so glad we found this wonderful home that solves all of our needs.

So far I can't say I have any complaints. There doesn't seem to be any improvement in the food though, so that is disappointing. Everything else seems fine, it's clean, and the staff is friendly. I don't really get any other complaints.

The place looks pretty and doesn't smell. Calls are not returned by staff or directors. The staff turn over is huge, like a revolving door. There is much confusion in the way this facility is run. Missing laundry happens too often. There is no system in place to handle laundry.

I moved my Mother into Brandywine Senior Living at Fenwick Island in Delaware in April of 2014. The staff has been very responsive when I call, they call me with updates (as I don't live nearby) and they send me photos! The memory unit is very patient and caring and I especially like all the activities they provide. One of my favorites is the Friday afternoon Happy Hour which usually has live music. Another favorite event is the monthly Signature program called "Family Day Connection." This gives you the opportunity to meet family members of the other residents. It helps build friendships and connections. I can't wait to move to Delaware to be closer and more involved with the facility!

My brother and I brought my parents to Brandywine Senior Living/Fenwick Island in November 2013, from their home in Florida. Dad is near 90 and was very weak, both from a long trip moving here and his congestive heart disease. Mom was suffering from dementia. We were met at the door to Brandywine by medical and management staff after their normal hours. We could not have received a warmer welcome from family. It seemed as though everyone on staff knew each of us personally. The medical staff paid immediate attention to their specific needs and arranged for the proper therapy for them. When Mom passed away in March 2014, the staff was extremely supportive of all of us, especially my Dad. Dad has blossomed under their care, physically and mentally. At home, his hobby was woodworking. Recently, the staff at Brandywine started a cooperative woodworking project where men who have interests like my Dad build small wooden projects, using power tools, which are then finished by other residents who enjoy painting and decorating. Dad was so happy after his first day of this project that he sounded like a kid at Christmas when he told me that ”they moved a woodshop in and I’m covered with sawdust again!” The attention to detail at Brandywine is amazing. I truly feel as though I am among friends whenever I’m there visiting. My brother and I no longer worry about Dad. We know that he is well cared for, well fed and happy.
