Monarch Communities

Staff is caring and compassionate . The activities director runs an excellent program to keep all involved and stimulated . Holiday programs are great , involving family and friends .

Right from the beginning [name removed] has been an integral part of why my mom landed at Brandywine Assisted Living at Howell, NJ. [name removed] pays close attention to details in assisting your needs for your personal situation at hand. Even after your love one takes residence at the facility, [name removed]is always there to assist in any way shape or form, (i.e. [name removed]is truly your Guardian Angel through your process in assisting in your needs for your love one and will even be there when she’s not at the facility, which makes her a real genuine person who has your best interest at heart). I personally like to say thank you to her in making mom and my family’s journey seamless in this ongoing transition (now & future). Brandywine is very lucky to have [name removed], including the other talented personnel working along side with her in assisting the needs for this dynamic aged group.

5 on everything. It is a wonderful place and my dad is very happy and based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend this community to other families!

During the day you will find cleaning crew cleaning the common rooms and once a week they clean an apartment and wash and change the sheets. All of the aides and all employees say hello when you meet them walking around. Nurse available 24x7. We all have gps pendants so they can be pushed and can be found wherever you are on the grounds. Nurses will monitor and give media if needed. aides will take you down to meals or activities if needed for extra charge. 5) 5 the food is excellent with 2 specials for lunch and dinner with several daily choices each meal. Very special desserts with ice cream and pudding offered daily. Wait staff is attentive and helpful We receive an activity sheet outside our door each morning with the activities each day and a monthly sheet at the beginning of the month. The activities are varied with intellectual social, religious, games,physical. A movie every night and a gym and occasional live entertainment. The rooms are varied: studio, one bedroom, 2 bedroom.. Pretty pricey although many amenities provided.

The staff at Brandywine are very helpful when you need them. There was an incident with my laundry that was resolved immediately. I love going to happy hour and listening to the musicians that come to play for us. Overall great experience.

The activities that the programming director at Brandywine puts on are so creative and entertaining. We take trips more often than friends of mine at other communities do and I'm very grateful for that. Always a great time!

I've been through a lot since moving here in terms of my health but Brandywine has made it a little bit better. I like happy hour and the trips we take to restaurants and shows. They have a good team here.

Brandywine at Brandall Estates is an amazing community. It’s beautiful from the flowers on the front and back porch when you walk in the amazing chandelier in the lobby. I would highly recommend this community for your loved one!

Brandywine at the Gables is a beautiful community with staff that care for residents as if they are family! I would Highly recommend this community for your loved one!!!!!!!

If you are looking for a wonderful place to put your loved one, this is the place. The staff is amazing, especially [name removed]. Her professionalism is by far nothing I have experienced anywhere else. She is warm and caring and always brings a smile to everyone’s face. She is loved by the community and their families. I highly recommend!!!

I highly recommend Brandall Estates to anyone looking for a top-notch assisted living community. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always going above and beyond to make sure the residents are comfortable and happy. The activities and events they offer are diverse and engaging, providing plenty of opportunities for socialization and fun. And the food is delicious, with a variety of options to suit every taste. Overall, Brandywine Estates truly feels like a home away from home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care my family member is receiving there.

What really stands out is how thoughtfully the renovations have been done, ensuring that the suites are not only beautiful but also functional and accommodating for the residents. The updated amenities are top-notch, providing everything needed for a comfortable and safe living environment. The atmosphere in the community is warm and welcoming, making it a truly wonderful place to call home.

Pleased with Brandywine for my mom's recent move. [name removed] and [name removed] made the process very easy to transition my mom from rehab into their community. The first day she was welcomed on a beautiful red carpet and greeted by very pleasant staff members. Overall we are very pleased with our decision.

The facility is a home like setting, the staff that work there are very upbeat, and will help you with any situation they are able to or at least guide you on where to get the answers. Their trips and social outings are fun and they are always looking for suggestions of new adventures with the age group that are going on the trip itself. An example, they just went on the Cape May Ferry for the mid morning/afternoon and everyone had a great time. I feel like there are more smiles in walking around and engaging with everyone. They encourage the residents to spend time reading the paper/book/tablet-to go outside and get some sunshine. I would highly recommend in looking into the facility if you need the care for a family member.

I highly recommend any one whose looking for care regarding their loved ones to come here! Their team is elite to where their always on top of it and their staff goes above and beyond for their residents!

Although it was a bumpy start due to the fluctuations in Opening Date, both before and after Mom arrived, the staff was extremely helpful. We had no doubt that we made the right decision! Once a resident, the staff provided tremendous care to Mom and took the time to get to know family members too. They were also very accommodating whenever a large group of us would come to visit. Even once Mom was enrolled in Hospice, she was still able to remain comfortable at Monarch. Sadly she passed peacefully in February, but we give nothing but rave reviews about the Monarch Coopers Corner facility!

My mother passed away at Brandywine last month. The decisions you are facing now about the care of a loved one are difficult and life-changing ones. It is with great gratitude that share my experiences with Brandywine at Pennington to assist you. This is the third review I have written over many years. Hard to believe it has been 8 years since mother moved into her one-bedroom suite at Brandywine. In my first review I comment on what a lovely facility, with many activities, and great food. I talked about the difficult transition for parents leaving their homes of (in my case) 50 years, and how it did not take long for mother – and for me - to feel part of the Brandywine community. Several years later mother moved to a one room studio, and I submitted a second review. While it was still true the building is beautiful, the food restaurant quality, and the activities extensive, it became obvious that the thing that sets Brandywine at Pennington apart is the people. I shared how everyone

My experience at Brandywine has been overwhelmingly positive. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by the staff. The facility itself is well-maintained, clean, and designed to be both functional and comfortable.

I have many friends that have lived in this community. The way they are treated and taken care of is out of this world. The employees show so much care and attention to detail its amazing. The food is outstanding and is always on point. The Chefs come out to greet you and make sure everything is ok.

We really have no real complaints! My parents are not involved in activities because of their physical and mental limitations so I can't speak for that aspect. I am pleased with the lovely and spacious apartment and friendly staff.
