Types of care available in Ocean County, NJ
Independent Living
My brother in independent living so he is in his own apartment and pays for additional onsite Wellness and bus trips. His unit was completely remodeled so very nice. He pays for individual onsite cleaning service but it is mediocre. Helpful staff especially onsite nurse. Usually the meals are very good and wide variety. they have a calendar full of activities as well as an excursion calendar for each month. The rental units so no big initial outlay and because they are recently remodeled appear updated w roomy layouts. Front and back door for each unit with patio. One story building so no neighbor up or down, just side to side. Surprisingly good option for over 55 independent living with key enhancements available (onsite Wellness, meal plan, excursions and activities.)
I chose Brandywine Living at Wall in NJ as a home for my dad when we lost my mom and it was getting difficult to care for him on our own. I call Brandywine a "home" because that is exactly what it has become for our entire family, including my dad. I have to admit I was anxious about the transition with my dad, but the staff here has demonstrated nothing but kindness and a genuine commitment to supporting my dad's specific needs. Their flexibility and willingness to collaborate with me have ensured that my dad has received the highest standard level of care possible. The food here is outstanding and the dining hall, including the entire building, is always immaculately clean. There are activities daily for the residents to partake, which is where my dad got to meet friends and socialize; my dad says when the weather is nice, his favorite thing to do is have the staff assist him in walking around the beautiful garden area outside. There isn't a better place to call home then Brandywine
Everyone is friendly and helpful. For the food, I do think that they could maybe have a few more choices for the residents to choose from each day. I would absolutely recommend Spring Oak of Toms River.
