I cannot say enough good things about Spring Meadows . My experience with the staff has been nothing but positive. My mom is being well cared for and is also very busy with activities and events daily. I could not have made a better choice. Thank- you Spring Meadows for giving my mom her life back .

Friendly and accommodating staff

I've been pleased with the service here so far. The facility itself is clean and well kept, and they've got a good variety of activities to keep the residents engaged and entertained. The staff does an excellent job of encouraging the residents to get involved. I have noticed a few hiccups in coordination and follow-through, but for the most part we're comfortable and happy with the care they're providing my loved one.

Some great staff, but also some serious issues

This community has an excellent director, and the activities and daily programming staff are excellent. Lots of appropriate activities for the residents. They have plenty to do on-site, and field trips for the more mobile residents. I also like that there is an independent on-site doctor and physical therapy location. They also have some serious issues. NONE of the toilets in this community are handicapped/wheelchair height, they are all standard size. They have a do-not-lift policy, which is very unusual for an assisted living facility. They will not bring medication to the residents, the residents must go to a specific location to pick up their own. The food is also disappointing, there are few selections, and no low-sodium options, which many residents need. It would also be nice if 2 bedrooms units were offered, as many residents have 24 hour aides.

A Place for Mom has scored Brandywine at Summit 7 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
