Recent reviews of Independent Living in Sussex Shores, DE
The Woodlands in Ocean Pines, MD
4.5

Our family is so very grateful that we found Catered Living. It is attractive and small enough for personal attention. Our mother got wonderful care there. We felt the staff knew her personally and always treated her with love and respect. When the time came, the staff, nurses and admin at Catered worked closely with hospice care and the family.

Gull Creek Senior Living Community in Berlin, MD
3.5

The staff turnover is high. In two plus years there have been about 3-4 nurse administrators. The med techs serve as aids, do laundry , and administer medication. Some are very friendly and some not so much. Turnover rate also high. The facility is currently being painted , cosmetic improvements in the common areas are being made. My Mom's room is large but the bathroom is way too small and the opening is too narrow. Cleaning of the room is fair. The facility has lovely rooms and a new outdoor garden that is beautiful! The recreation director is amazing , there are many activities and trips as well. Upper management is friendly and accommodating. The residents are friendly and interact nicely with each other. I am speaking about the assisted living part not memory care. They seem to have a nice memory care unit - but can't speak for it. Berlin is a great town with lots to do.

Brandywine Senior Living at Fenwick Island in Selbyville, DE
5.0

My mother has been a resident at Brandywine Fenwick for 2.5 years. During this period she has received outstanding personal and professional care. AL living is a significant transition and hard for all involved, and nothing is ever perfect. However the leadership and caregivers at Brandywine work together as a well coordinated team, and provide exceptional support to both the resident and the family. The facility is exceptionally clean and well maintained, the quality of nursing support is outstanding, and the day-to-day operations are both creative and engaging. I am particularly grateful for the individual care managers and nursing staff who work hard to coordinate and support my mothers unique needs. Brandywine’s ability to transition her care Internally as her clinical needs have changed, is a particular benefit of this facility and is reflective of the strong clinical leadership in its nursing director. I highly recommend that anyone shopping for a progressive, supportive and caring assisted living environment give Brandywine Fenwick Island a look. I feel confident that my Mom is in good hands.
